Shield Dust.

Dust Shield
Shield Dust, since it doesn't seem like anything else has a chance of winning the primary I'll go for my favorite in the secondary
Shield Dust
I vote for Shield Dust, and I think it would be kinda cool to rename Shield Dust to something like "Surge Guard"

Trace
Shield Dust
Shield Dust, a healthy choice with only minor cons and good pros as seen in the discussion thread and I can go for my real favorite in secondary. :)
I'm sick of being haxxed out by Jirachi and Togekiss, who can actually beat any Pokemon in any situation with a little luck.
In response to this, I'm voting Shield Dust.

Gotta be Shield Dust - holding out for Static in round two as a secondary for sure.
Thick Fat
Mostly so I don't HAVE to switch my Dragon out of a Weavile or the such. Though I will be happy if Shield Dust gets a vote. Thick Fat will also allow an easier switch into pokemon like Heatran, though if he decides to Earth Power then we have an issue.

Might as well jump on the band wagon....
Shield Dust
I feel the majority of the other abilities really only come in to their own when paired with a complimentary second ability. Which is banking on too much. As stand along abilities, 'Shield Dust' does seem a solid choice.
As for other possibilities:
'Trace' - I'd really feel this would be most effective on, and should be reserved for, a Steel type (preferable as Steel/Grass!! heheheh...)
'Mold Breaker' - Really would be best on a Ground type.
