Snaquaza Edit: This will function as a general discussion around abilities. You can casually post ideas here without it being a submission. (We'd like to see Pokemon if you were to make a submission, as well as if it'd be on a new one you plan on making as well.Idea #1: More abilities geared toward Special Attackers While abilities such as Huge Power and Pure Power exist, Game Freak has yet to make such an ability for the Special Attack stat.
Idea #2: More abilities such as Storm Drain and Justified
Creating abilities that raise certain stats when hit by a specific typing could be a very big part of the competitive scene and, depending on how we implement said abilities, could because a very prominent battling strategy, especially if we are able to combine the correct Fakemons with beneficial stat boosts and attack types to trigger said boosts.

You could have variations of Fairy Aura and Dark Aura as potential abilities as well as -ate abilities. A Special Defence Fur Coat is nice too.

Idea: Heritable abilities! Much like egg moves, egg abilities could possibly be a thing! This would make many more pokes our there more viable. I'm not sure how the mechanics would work, but I think it would bring a new edge to the game.

Once we figure that out, we should have a great new concept!

I'd actually like to remove hidden abilities with egg abilities. Breed with a mon with that ability and get it!
That said, I'd like egg move restrictions to get back.. they make sense. But that should be somewehre else

@snaquaza, yeah. Hidden abilities are just nonsense... Also, should we implement something like Dream World abilities or no??

Breed with a mon with that ability and get it! So it would partially become the Inheritance OM? So if you breed, say, a Slaking with anything that doesn't have Truant, you could have a MegaRay-level mon on your team.

Nope, just like moves, you can only get one so you need to breed with the right thing!

Drizzle Poliwrath? oh yes Would Drought Charizard be possible? Because then you could mega evolve into Zard X and have both a Sun and Tough Claws boosted Flare Blitz.

Something with a gravity upon entrance could be extremely cool! It has useful effects so could be abused in a nice way, while also supporting .

Okay this is going to be controversial, but how would you guys feel about making it so that a Pokemon with a weather inducing ability would give permanent weather holding the item which increases the length of it, would make the weather last for the rest of the battle? Also Cloud Nine (and Air Lock) would completely remove weather.
I don't think this should be OP since the Pokemon are severly hindered by no item, effectively making them a mega, without any raised stats or special abilities or typings, but they can support the team.

So I assume Trick Room, Magic Room, Fairy Terrain, Grassy Terrain, Gravity would all have their own ability? Is that healthy???

imo an 8 turn trick room is gonna be very op and there is a reason why this hasnt been made yet, however i think that all terrain moves should be changed completely so that they will be worth using.

I'm not sure how the mechanics would work, but I think it would bring a new edge to the game. I smell Huge Power Fairies coming... 252+ Atk Light Ball Huge Power Pikachu Brick Break vs. 252 HP / 0 Def Ferrothorn: 330-390 (93.7 - 110.7%) -- 62.5% chance to OHKO (330, 334, 338, 342, 346, 350, 354, 358, 362, 366, 370, 374, 378, 382, 386, 390) Pika gets Extremespeed too. Azumarill is a great parent. I personally don't like Egg Abilities because it makes the game too variable with lots of complexities. You don't want to have to guess an ability on top of a moveset, item and other stuff!

I think you all misunderstood Egg Abilities and I'm in favor of it. Basically we'd remove Hidden Abilities and introduce Egg Abilities, which would solely be the current Hidden Ability. If the Pokemon in question's father has this ability, it gets it and otherwise it doesn't.
