Second attempt at a viable item: This item is very similar to rocky helmet, in that in takes advantage of beating contact attackers. If the opponent uses a contact move onto a pokemon with spring trap, spring trap activates and inflicts a random status onto the opponent (or we can make versions of this with specific status's). One time use. Fun part is that it can be knocked off, but knock off still activates the spring trap anyways so it doesn't matter. In doubles, spring trap activates onto a random opponent, so the pokemon who made contact with the pokemon holding this item might not even get status'd. This doesn't look that viable, but it sounds fun to mess up knock off spam.

I say you should keep it to whoever damages the holder in any battle whether singe, double, or triple. Also when u say status do u include minor statuses too? [like confused, infatuated, cursed, etc..]

no just the standard status like burn, freeze, para, and poison. I think it would be a tad too strong if it were kept on the pokemon, as you could status an entire team like that.

To say the truth, this is like the item version of effect spore, just greatly altered. Now there's burn and frozen to go along, and it's a 100% chance. It makes the ability seem kinda useless. My opinion, make the % of the status taken to about maybe 40% or even 50% if u wannna aid the difference between the two. Basically alter it a bit to make it as the same strength that effect spore has.

I think to differentiate between effect spore and this item, we can make the chance 50 and remove freeze (because nobody likes freeze) like how rocky helmet is iron barbs buffed up. Good point though, didn't even realize effect spore existed.
