Mitigating Injuries

I've made a couple posts recently about Task Master recently, but I think this will be the last.

What's the best way to mitigate injuries? Or rather what are some features/edges that can help me do so to save my poke'mon from death? I know of Ace Trainers, and I believe enduring soul has one but is there more?

the Defy Death ability gives pokemon like Starmie the ability to just shrug off 3 injuries at once.

I was more talking about preventing them in the heat of battle. Dealing with them in general is easy due to Quick Healing.

Edit: I did notice the Defy Death in the playtest, just waiting to see if DM wants to use them.

Soulstealer if you can get the faint is good. Much better if you can get the kill. Creepy Ghost Pokemon.

Vigor gives access to endure as well as mitigating injuries when it is used. This is accessible through Enduring soul so any of your pokmeon can get it.

Abominable prevents some injuries happening at all.

Healing Wish and Lunar Dance can help heal other pokemon by sacrificing one.

And as you mentioned, Enduring Soul and Ace Trainer have other tools for dealing mitigating injuries or healing them quickly in battle.

Additionally, anything that boost your defenses is going to mitigate injuries by reducing the amount of damage you take. If you can couple this with a draining move and big root to always keep your HP high, then you might be able to avoid injuries all together.
