The phrase ひひいろのこどう (hihiiro no kodou) refers to a Pokémon ability introduced in Generation 9. It translates roughly to "Brilliant Red Pulse" or "Scarlet Pulse."
Meaning of Each Part
- ひひいろ (緋色, hiiro) means "brilliant red," "scarlet," or "crimson."
- こどう (鼓動, kodou) means "heartbeat" or "pulse."
Ability Explanation
This ability, held notably by the Pokémon Koraidon, changes the weather to "sunny" (にほんばれ) for 5 turns upon entering the battle. While the sunny weather is active, the Pokémon's attack stat is increased to 4/3 times its normal value. This amplifies offensive power, especially under strong sunlight conditions in battle. Thus, ひひいろのこどう is a special ability emphasizing a powerful, ancient force represented by the "scarlet pulse," enhancing attack strength while invoking bright sunlight in battle conditions.
