I know, I'm just saying Snow Warning will be run over Ligntning Rod every time, except maybe on like TR Mega Aboma teams weak to Electric?, so there's literally no competitive boonMegaZam, Pure Power....
Hm. Well, have fun with that future meta if this info turns out to be true.
Abomasnow's current HA is Soundproof, not Snow Warning.
Something I forgot to add! Pokemon that didn't have a HA before like Mew, Azelf, etc, now have one assigned to them, so their first abilities remain.So lots of cool stuff here. Moxie Staraptor seems interesting, Azelf getting pressure over Leviatate kind of sucks tho. Dat Shell Armor Eviolite Chansey tho... everyone get your fighting types ready
Once they are posted in the log they are official.I don't understand. Are these abilities just theorymon for a pet mod or are they official? Oo
So Megas are getting their ability replaced. Venusaur can mega evolve from either Overgrowth or Dry Skin but Mega Venu will always have Aroma Veil. I'll try to organize the OP some more. I apologize about the confusion--covering these leaks is taking up way more time than I expected! But like Spider-Man, with great power comes great responsibility.These Hidden abilities will change each generation? And how will they work with Mega's? Would you need the "new" hidden ability to get the new Mega hidden ability (for example, Dry Skin Bulbasaur to get Aroma Veil Mega Venusaur)?
Wow, but Thick Fat was such a great ability for it... So basically all the HA breeding we do in one generation will be pointless. :/So Megas are getting their ability replaced.

OK I just finished decoding the last list from my contact. I think I should give him/her a name so I don't have to keep saying "my contact." How about code name Farfetch'd? Seems appropriate.
Anyway, Farfetch'd Fed-Exed a list written in invisible ink on the inside of a shopping bag in Sumerian. Took me all day to decipher it. I have confirmation on the Pokemon on pages 3-4 and I also have a bunch more not yet brought up.

Just curious but which mon do you see yourself using or which ones do you see that will completely change the metagame? I know it's early but just some speculation.
The Stall Slaking one is definitely going to make for some interesting changes lol.Here's some of my thoughts on a couple of these 'mons:
Zapdos and Kingdra family: Drizzle
Thunder from the big yellow bird and
waterfall and hydro pump boosted from Kingdra.
Also, Kingdra becomes 8x resisted to fire with this
HA.
Nidoqueen/Nidoking: Parental Bond
Well, this is a big surprise.... ...
Oh god.... Parental Bond Super fang.... ;_;
Mega Alakazam: Pure Power
...This only works for physical atk so I dont know
why this is even here.... :P
Tangela family: Poison Heal
Well, this is gonna be quite fun.
Also has giga drain for more healing.
Raikou: Competitive. Yes. :] and Entei: Defiant. Not bad.
Taillow family: Aerilate
Return and Quick attack are gonna be quite good on Swellow when this hits.
Also, has a nice speed to go along with this new HA
Slakoth/Slaking: Stall
Well I'm going to abuse this for sure.
Facade, elemental punches, and sky-high atk and decent bulk
Mew: Protean
Gets every TM/HM, tutor move, etc., has 100 pts in every stat,
baton pass, rock polish, nasty plot, SD....
True. It can run hammer arm because it will almost always go last. It has yawn to force switches, slack off to recover HP. 150/100/65 is quite the bulk and 165 base atk means it is hitting hard from the get go. Play Rough, Gunk Shot and pursuit are good options as well.The Slaking Stall one is definitely going to make for some interesting changes lol.
It has some excellent coverage moves but it begs the question what item would you pair it with? An assault vest to patch up its 65 SDef? What do you think?True.

When in doubt, Leftovers like you run on everything else. It could also run Life Orb, since it can heal back up with Slack Off.It has some excellent coverage moves but it begs the question what item would you pair it with? An assault vest to patch up its 65 SDef? What do you think?
Lefties or Life Orb. Heck, Lum Berry wouldn't be too bad if you don't have a poke with heal bell or aromatherapy and you don't want the Big ape to get poisoned or burned. Also, as FlameUser64 pointed out, it has slack off to recover from Life orb use.It has some excellent coverage moves but it begs the question what item would you pair it with? An assault vest to patch up its 65 SDef? What do you think?
I don't understand. Are these abilities just theorymon for a pet mod or are they official? Oo
When I got home I met a man on my doorstep waiting to deliver a telegram.
That should tell you all you need to know p much. Kudos to Eevee General for being creative about this at least.Anyway, Farfetch'd Fed-Exed a list written in invisible ink on the inside of a shopping bag in Sumerian.
