Here we are, in Generation 7! The new Generation brings many new and unique things - and with it, the possibility to have multiple abilities on a Pokémon!
Ever wished that Salamence can have both of its abilities - Intimidate and Moxie at the same time? Ever wished that a Pokemon could use all of its abilities to their full potential? Here is the OM for you!
In this meta, a Pokemon can have all of its abilities at the same time. Here's is the original thread from when it was a Pet Mod. An example is if you use Clefable, it will have all of its abilities- Cute Charm, Magic Guard, & Unaware at the same time. This gives it a huge buff since all of its abilities are quite useful.
Rules:
Mechanic: Pokemon can have all of their abilities at the same time.This excludes banned or unreleased abilities. This includes unreleased abilities.
Clauses: OU clauses,Evasion Abilities Clause
Bans: OU banlist, Excadrill, Porygon-Z, Bibarel, Bidoof, Diglett, Dugtrio, Glalie, Gothita, Gothitelle, Gothorita, Octillery, Remoraid, Smeargle, Snorunt, Trapinch, Wobbuffet, and Wynaut
Unbans: None at the moment
Strategy:
Abilities have a huge impact on how a Pokemon performs in a battle, and since now a Pokemon gains all of its abilities, it can receive a huge buff, offensively on some and defensive on some.
Increase Viability:
: Gaining both Magic Guard and Unaware gives it a nice buff. Cute Charm isn't that useful, but it might come handy.
: Sand Force + Sand Stream! This lets it it harder.
: Now this mon gets a HUGE buff, because Intimidate + Moxie is a nice combination, letting it setup easier and sweep.
Decreased Viability:
: This is the only mon that I could think of, because it gets Truant.
Any Pokemon that gets Klutz.
Q&A:
Q: What happens if a Pokemon get Trace as an innate ability?
A: Trace was fixed, and now it is supposed to copy an ability from the opponent randomly.
Q: Do Mega Pokemon keep the innate abilities after Mega Evolution?
A: No, Mega Pokemon lose the innates and have their standard ability.
Q: Does Greninja get Battle Bond, Protean, and Torrent all at once?
A: No. In-game, there are actually three formes of Greninja: one regular Greninja with Torrent and Protean, one regular Greninja (stat-wise) with just Battle Bond, and Ash-Greninja. As such, Greninja doesn't get all three abilities at once in Pokebilities for the same reason that Tornadus-Therian doesn't get Prankster or Defiant. This also applies to Zygarde-10%, which means it doesn't need to be banned like Pokemon with Moody do.
Resources:
Replays:
[1] - This one is good
[2] - Another good one
[3] - Shows a team which uses TR
Playability:
Yes its Playable! It took a while to code, but yes its possible. At the moment its playable on DragonHeaven and ROM, and you can use the code below to implement it on your server!
