Insomnia (ability)

Effect

This Pokémon cannot be asleep.

This causes rest to fail altogether. If a Pokémon is asleep and acquires this ability, it will immediately wake up; this includes when regaining a lost ability upon leaving battle.

This ability functions identically to vital spirit in battle.
