Wisdom

Lloyd's Wisdom stat.

Wisdom (かしこさ Kashikosa, Cleverness) is a stat in EarthBound Beginnings. This stat determines status ailment chance. It does 2 things to a member:

  1. Increases the chance of Status Ailments working (both in the form of PSI and battle items like the Flashdark).
  2. Decreases the chance of an enemy's Status Ailment attack working.

A Wisdom Capsule can be used to permanently increase a member's wisdom from 3 to 5.
