Mismagius have the rare ability to curse or bless people, Pokemon, items, and locations. These do not appear to be traditional techniques learned by a Pokemon, rather a manifestation of spiritual power in some form. A Mismagius always chants an incantation of some kind when using this ability, and each incantation for each type of curse or blessing is unique and shared across the species. Some chants appear to sound remarkably similar to phrases in ancient languages, but this is not always the case. Studies have shown that a Mismagius does not need to be able to see what it is cursing, or even have a straight unobstructed line to it. They have also shown that a Mismagius can curse people at a range of up to five miles, or more if the Mismagius either knows the target well, has access to a depiction (held in one of its arms) or a part of the object (such as hair, a vial of blood, soil etc.) The curses and blessings are typically minor, usually ranging from headaches or some bad luck to feelings of wellbeing or some good luck. Mismagius curse and bless entirely based on their own reasoning, as each appears to have different targets - some having senses of justice, some simply not liking a particular colour, and anything in between. The curses take anywhere from a minute to several months to apply. It is believed by many that a Mismagius' hat is the source of this ability, and while this is merely an urban legend, it has not stopped some Pokemon Hunters and cult leaders occasionally organising operations to try and acquire a hat by force. To this day, none of these have ever succeeded.
