Pokemon with Oblivious and Inner Focus are now immune to Intimidate. They should get a resistance to fear manipulation.
 
I think is more Intimidation in the sense of Social Influencing, pokemon with Oblivious are... welp, oblivious to get that kind of fealing, meanwhile inner focus they draw "force" from their courage.

Pretty sure social influencing doesn't force your stats to lower...
Arguable, really: if you are distracted or less aware of a situation, taking a hit in this kind of situation may be more dangerous than taking it when you are preapared to get punched.

Neither does Fear Manipulation, but I believe that dicreasing ones Attack is how the game represent someone being afraid, like one can't unleash its potential while one is trembling in fear. I believe that Intimidation in any media outside these games works inducing fear in the conventional way.
