>>25510852
>also has a 50% chance that the opponent will faint
>Post workout
Pokemon becomes more vulnerable (loses type resistances and buffs, lowers defense, special defense, and speed) for 2-3 turns after fainting a pokemon. If it survives it gains +1 to every stat.
>>25510998
Bastiodon is more like the one standing still and tanking the damage than a rusher like the others, but I suppose as a hidden ability it would work?
Also

>Reset
Every stat boost by opponent is cleared when this pokemon enters the battle
>>25512484
I used Strong Jaw as the basis, so eh.
It would only be given out to a handful of pokemon known for charging anyway, it makes sense to me. Besides, it's not like abilities that are objectively superior to others don't already exist
