I banned them because I didn't (and still don't) think it was possible for ps to have pokemon with no ability.

I'm guessing Level 51 just asked TI on IRC because I don't remember seeing this in submissions
Also STOP MENTIONING DUN DEAL
Flash Fire or Fur Coat, or even Filter Ferrothorn will be such good walls.
Shadow Tag Slaking. Shadow Tag Slaking!?!?!?!? I almost want to say that Slaking should be banned, but i now it shouldn't.
Just ban shadow tag,
Reckless Regigigas. Double Edge. OH MY GOD.
Sturdy Shedinja. Back to hackmons here we go...

You get it.
Basically nearly all the great pokemon suck now, and all the once mediocre pokemon are really strong.
Fur Coat Eviolite Fletchinder with will-o-wisp and roost to wall those physical attackers. Is the only fire-flying to be able to will-o-wisp roost stall mega tyranitar.
Prankster spore parasect anyone?
Not to mention parental bond super fang + quick attack purugly
rough skin rocky helmet rotom-fan to stop parental bond.
Magnet Pull Mamoswine, for the bane of steel types.
No guard noivern, spamming those specs hurricanes and focusmiss blast
Imposter igglybuff is your answer for, well, (almost) everything.
Parental bond mega pinsir whhyyyy
Wonder guard Weezing, whiscash, wormadam-trash, even wingull is a threat.
Wanna solution to all wonderguarders (except MAYBE wingull)? Try arena trap alakazam with energy ball/psychic/hp fire/charge beam
and not the serene grace shenanigans again....
I agree with the "keep your ability" rule. I really wanna use levitate weezing just to troll people who try to hit it with ground moves.

Bad Dreams Breloom -> because the SubPunch set needs a sidegrade
Fairy Aura Florges -> Let's give it an ability it can actually use! (Though Fur Coat might be useful to to make it a mixed wall)
Sturdy Smeargle -> Hey, now you don't really need to give it a Focus Sash and we can try to use a Mental/White Herb
Illusion Infernape -> With a large movepool and the ability to be either a Nasty Plot or Swords Dance set we can bluff ourselves as many many more Pokemon
Multiscale Mandibuzz -> Because why not be bulkier!
Parental Bond Pikachu -> I think I ran out of totally good ideas so I now am looking at incredibly niche answers. Still, it probably hurts...for a Pikachu
If there was a flying gem...Gale Wings Greninja might enjoy a moveset of all Priority for the lulz (It gets Quick Attack, Water Shruiken, Shadow Sneak, and now Acrobatics)
Random Bulletproofs can help random B Pokemon.

Not necessarily. It could always just switch in on toxic, so that it can't be worn down by it.
Slap on a scarf, and Huge Power Haxorus will wreck EVERYTHING.
Unaware Umbreon might also be able to fair well.
Compoundeyes Chandy and Charizard can now spam Fire Blast without any fear of missing.
Wow this sounds awesome.

Sorry, but I believe OP said that Huge power and Pure Power are banned.
The issue with this is that Talonflame's stats are actually pretty bad...people tend to overestimate it. In OU, it's Talon's ability that makes it so useful
