Sharpened Frame

Description:

After long hours deflecting and weakening the attacks of others, Steel Pokemon with Dulling Edges discover the secrets to turning enemies' physical attacks against themselves. Pokemon who seek to strike the bladed scales of powerful Steel Pokemon often find themselves bleeding as a result of their own offensive. They harder they strike, the greater the punishment they heap upon themselves. When experienced Steel Pokemon possessing Sharpened Frames are victorious, it is as much due to their enemies' effort as their own.

Usage:

A Pokemon possessing the Sharpened Frame Feat passively reflects 25% of the damage inflicted to it by enemy Physical Attacks. This percentage is calculated after Type Effectiveness and other damage modifiers are applied.

Example:

Dol'rash, the battle-hardened Bisharp and companion of Ace Trainer Ulren, has seen many battles in his day, and this one with their opponent's Hariyama is no different from the countless others. Possessing a powerful Type advantage, the Hariyama swaggers onto the battlefield, beginning combat with a devastating Force Palm. The attack, which rolled a 36 in damage, deals 144 damage to Dol'rash due to the 4x-Effectiveness Fighting moves wield against him. Yet it is the Hariyama who reels in surprise, for cuts have erupted all over the palm he used in his attack, dealing 36 damage back to himself with the force he used to assault Dol'rash's sword-like skin. Dol'rash rises as he and Ulren smile as one. The enemy has cut himself, now we deliver a cut of our own.

Notes:

Sharpened Frame is a Level II Feat, requiring both Level 40 and possession of the Dulling Edges Feat.

Unlike Dulling Edges, Sharpened Frame requires enemy Pokemon to hit the User with a punch or kick, which brings it into the range of the User's deadly hide. Attacks which are Physical in nature but keep the enemy out of the immediate range of the Sharpened Frame User (such as Rock Throw) do not trigger the damage return.
