Shared PowerThe place where we share our power!
In this OM each time you send out a Pokémon it will share its ability with the rest of its team, so the first Pokémon you send out will have one ability and the second two, and so on up to 6 different abilities all active, obviously if you send back the first Pokémon now it will have all 6 abilities.

Common questions:
Q: What happens when a Pokémon faints? Does its ability continue to support the rest of the team?
A: Yes. Incineroar will still continue to share Intimidate, even after it faints. This is to avoid battles turning into snowballs once a Pokémon has been fainted.
Q: Do abilities stack? Will two Intimidate Pokémon give me two Attack drops?
A: No.
Q: How do Skill Swap, Entrainment, Mummy, etc. work?
A: Ability-altering moves only work with a Pokémon’s native ability. So Skill Swap would exchange their normal abilities while retaining the teammates’. The shared ability remains as the original one when the Pokémon is switched out.
Q: Why don't Imposter and Illusion work even when unrestricted?
A: Because of technical limitations, these abilities are not shared.
Q: How does Prankster work with Mycelium Might?
A: Mycelium Might doesn't reduce your priority, it makes you move last inside your priority bracket, so if both use a move with the same priority then the Mycelium Might user moves second. It can be a bit confusing, so here's a replay showing the interaction: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9sharedpower-1733502193
Q: Does Poison Touch make your moves Sheer Force compatible?
A: Sheer Force doesn't boost the power of moves affected by Poison Touch.
Here's a replay to make sure: https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9sharedpower-1734068076
Q: Berserk/Anger Shell didn't active, is this a bug?
A: Remember that they don't get activated by self damage like Substitute and that if the opponent has Sheer Force these abilities can't active.
Q: Does Battle Bond/Embody Aspect share?
A: These abilities check for the corresponding Pokémon, so while they technically share, their effects won't activate.
Q: Does Disguise/Ice Face share?
A: Abilities that require the Pokémon to change forms can't active any of their effects when shared.
Q: Is X ability bugged?
A: Known bugs are Unnerve and As One not sharing. If you believe an ability is bugged, post it here with a replay, it is recommended that you first do calcs to check if the effects are indeed gone, as visual changes aren't usually reflected, visual tips from abilities like Guts and Cloud Nine don't appear for the partners, but their effects are still present, these abilities do work as intended.
