Different moves and items have different status effects and hit reactions. These range from burn to poison, to crumple to eject. Status effects are signified by an icon surrounding the inflicted character's portrait; as the effect wears off, the icon will disappear, acting as a meter. When the icon is gone, the status effect has worn off.
