Bare Hands

Boosts the base power of the Pokémon's attacks if they are not holding an item.

Details

This new ability boosts the power of its Pokémon's attacks by 20% if no item is held.

The move Acrobatics has a similar effect. But they do differ with respect to the Gem held items. With Acrobatics the gem boost stacks with the move power boost, but with Bare Hands these do not stack.
