SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet: The Teal Mask

With Empoleon's HA getting replaced with a better one/better version of the same one, and Shiftry's ability changing from Early Bird to Wind Rider, can we assume some of the Starters's Hidden Abilities might be getting changed for the better?

Sharpness Samurott seems likely right now, thankfully. Still not as good as Hisiuan Samurott, but it'd be a deserved buff and replacing a terrible HA for it to begin with. We'd have to wait until DLC to find out, however.

Maybe Torterra will be useful?
 
Pls let me know ASAP Arbok and Dusknoir are my babies

Extremely excited to look into Empoleon in this meta, Roost + Competitive with Water/Steel typing sounds great
Well, checking TMs for a fresh caught Ekans, I see: Knock Off Lash Out, Toxic, Haze among the new stuff. Probably need a Duskull or Dusknoir to check that next from a raid.
