Soothe Bell in Pokelike

Direct answer
In the cited community discussion, Soothe Bell is described as making start-of-fight effects and Traits trigger twice. The same thread does not establish one exact result for every interaction. In particular, players disagree about the Lum Berry outcome: one reply expects the start-of-fight effect to repeat, while another reported test produced one Defense boost and one Speed boost without additional boosts. Pokelike Wiki therefore records the repeated-trigger description and the conflict, but does not hard-code a two-boost or four-boost result as an official rule.
Reported effect
The question describes Soothe Bell as causing start-of-fight effects and Traits to trigger twice.
A community reply agrees that start-of-fight passive effects can trigger again.
Why the Lum Berry result is unresolved
The discussion contains different expectations and observations for Lum Berry.
One reported test saw one Defense boost and one Speed boost, rather than an expanded set of additional boosts.
How the Wiki handles the conflict
- Keep the shared description visible.
- Show both observations with attribution.
- Do not simulate an exact interaction.
- Update the page when a more direct source or repeatable result is available.
Source boundary
What the source does not prove
- Single community thread with conflicting observations.
- No official Pokelike source is cited.
- No version is stated.
- The page does not calculate passive combinations.
