You are currently reading a thread in /vp/ - Pokemon
Let's think of some good new Abilities.
>Global Cooling
Water-type moves become Ice-type.
>Global Warming
Water-type moves become Fire-type.
I'm actually working on a Pokemon Essentials project, so I might actually implement these in.
>>26770255
To clarify: I've already implemented the two abilities in the OP, I meant I might implement your ideas.
>water becomes fire
An abolity that induces trick room on entry. Think of it like a psychic drizzle
>>26770255
>Global Warming
I don't know about this ability since GW is an hoax but if GF want to make this then eh.
>>26770288
Fuck idk the logic behind it I just needed a partner ability alongside Global Cooling, which kind of makes sense.
>>26770255
>Refraction
Beam attacks are sent back to the attacker with additional power (x1.5)
Ice Types such as Cryogonal would have this ability.
>Theoretical Style
Physical attacks are treated as special attacks.
>Practical Style
Special attacks are treated as physical attacks.
>Artificial Sun
This Pokemon is always under the affects of sunlight, regardless of weather.
>Arificial Rain
This Pokemon is always under the affects of rain, regardless of weather.
Feel free to change the names, I'm no good at naming abilities
>Sticky Body
Slows opponent when hit by a physical move
>>26770319
You could just do "Ice type moves become water type". Make Dragons even more OP in doubles.
>>26770255
Should global warming not be ice to water, like what happens as a result of actual global warming?
polar bears fleeing in fear as the oceans burn would certainly have more impact than "that glacier's getting pretty small"
>>26770381
lol Water moves becoming Fire-type would fuck up grass types pretty bad.
>Boiling Point
Every Water-type move gets a 10% to burn on Pokemon who are damaged normally by Water, 5% to Pokemon who 0.5x resist Water, 2.5% to Pokemon who 0.25x resist Water, 20% to Pokemon who 2x weak to Water, and 40% to Pokemon who 4x weak to Water. 0% for immune Pokemon.
Short version: Every Water-type move is Scald.
>>26770429
fuck off
>Herbivore
like volt absorb but turns grass moves and health
>>26770460
*into
>>26770460
Sap Sipper was actually literally Herbivore in japanese but I guess localizers really really really wanted alliteration really bad even if the name makes no sense in context.
>>26770491
oh shit forgot sap sipper was a thing
>>26770371
Literally already exists (though it's contact and not physical moves). Make it whenever you make contact with a move and we'll be set.
>>26770295
Why hasnt anyone appreciated this yet?
>>26770527
that would be better
>>26770491
>>26770513
>>26770371
>>26770527
>>26770551
ok then
>Sticky Body
slows opponent when you hit them with contact move
>>26770613
I want it to exist
>>26770626
>>26770613
What is Gooey?
>>26770665
Do you actually read posts or is your trigger finger just itching for any opportunity to prove somebody on the internet?
>>26770343
>>26770295
10/10 would use
bravo bravo what what
This is always fun, feel free to criticize names and effects, I'm pretty bad with the former
>Sure hit
This pokemon's attack ignore type immunity
>Hubris
This pokemon's attack is increased one stage when hit by a not very effective attack
>Ready on its feet
This pokemon's first attack will always go first (+6 priority, if its the correct cap of priority) after being sent into battle
>Conoseur
A berry eaten by the user will have twice the regular effect
>Huddle
In doubles both mons regain hp from hail
Party Pooper
Any buffs provided to any opponent by any other opponents team mates are removed when Party Pooper user enters battle
>tactician
Damage done by the user will be based on the target's weakest defensive stat.
Ex: a focus blast on a chance would deal physical damage. Might be a bit broken
>Solid Ground
>Allows immunity to ground shaking moves such as Earthquake, Bulldoze or Fissure
>>26770800
dont forget magnitude
>Inverse
Super effective moves are not very effective, not very effective moves are super effective.
>>26770725
Band leader
If the Pokémon switches with a boost it passes the stats onto the next guy. Free baton pass
>>26770807
That too
>>26770808
>Inb4 given to a steel type
>Quick Reflexes
The user's moves will outprioritize the opponent's priority moves.
If the opponent uses fake out, your move would have +5 priority, if the opponent simply is faster, you're screwed
>Heavyweight
Prevents mons with lower weight than yours from switching out
>>26770255
>Overreact
>Every move has a added 10% of flinching the opponent with any damage dealer attack
Good for Pokémon like Mr. Mime, Lopunny and other ones directly related with beauty or acting. Also, I don't know if 10% is too little, but 20% seems broken if combined with Flinching moves.
>>26770295
Actually good. Give it to something like Mr. Mime or a weird bizarro type psychic.
I would say to introduce a full moon or clear moon weather type. Increase fairy type moves by 50%, decrease dark type by 50%.
Moonlight heals 2/3.
Could add dark night as a counter to that as well.
>>26770319
water moves become flying makes slightly more since, only because there isn't an air type really
>>26770808
This is really good
>>26770830
Most likely
>Last Stand
The Pokemon cannot be KO'd unless it is at 1 HP.
>Provoked
Attack and Speed are doubled when the user is hit with a Contact move.
>Friendly Fire
Attack is doubled if you attack your ally with a Contact move.
>>26770830
>inb4 given to an Ice-type
>>26770830
>>26770904
>inb4 given to an Ice/Steel-type
>>26770913
Wooooooooooah
>>26770899
Those are all unbelievably broken.
>Mirror World
All status moves are imitated
Basically using stat boosts would cause the Pokemon with the ability to copy that stat boost, using an entry hazard would cause the hazards to also appear around the opposing team, using Toxic would also cause the opponent to get poisoned, using Light Screen would also cause a Light Screen for the Pokemon's team
>unaffected
This pokemon ignores any kind of status effects
>Cold hunter
When frozen, this pokemon can attack, and gains a boost in attack and speed
>Centered
This Pokemon's stab moves ignore type effectiveness and/or resistances
Can someone tell me how broken this would be? Also what pokemon should get it and which shouldn't?
>Heavy Sleeper
Prevents damage while sleeping.
I have other alternatives that might be less broken.
>Heavy Sleeper 2
Prevents damage from contact moves while sleeping.
>Heavy Sleeper 3
Prevents physical damage while sleeping.
>Non-Wonder Guard
can only be hit by non super effective moves
(can someone think of a better name)
>>26770942
Chisel
>>26770942
Try eelektross
>>26770942
Blunder Guard
>>26770937
>Boosts def and sp def while sleeping.
>>26770966
>Uses Sleep Talk or Snore
>>26770899
>last stand
>with leftovers
>all sweepers except cinccino forced to switch
>>26770899
>last stand
Would make all ingrain/leftovers/leech see users practically imortal.
>Well rested
Boosts attack and defense after waking up.
>Janitor
One random entry hazard on the field is removed on entry
>Relief
Attack and Sp. Attack go up when status is cured
>>26771028
Should also grant immunity to hazards.
>>26770899
Here's a better idea:
Last stand doubles all stats if the user goes down to one health
It's no longer op, and it can prove very usefull on the right pokemon (with or without recovery).
Klepto
It's snatch but automatic
>>26771051
>At 1 HP
>All Stats double
>Use Rest
>Alpha
This pokemon is treated as alpha type. Alpha type Pokemon have no weaknesses, and resist all types except nature types (water,fire,grass, ground,rock,electric,flying).
Primal arceus' ability
>>26771075
>Rinse
>Repeat
>>26771061
>pokemon is out on the field
>can't use stat boosting or recovery moves otherwise opposing pokemon will steal it for itself and then still get to take its turn too
#balanced
>>26771075
It's better than being immortal
>>26771096
Good luck getting to 1hp twice without sturdy
>Equip
The Pokemon is able to equip new held items/switch their held item. Way too OP though.
>>26771150
*during battle
>>26770295
My idea was to give this to a C'thulu legendary if GF ever wants to go for a Lovecraftian theme
It would also be a great fit for Malamar (who really deserves more love since he's my favourite)
>>26771150
>>26771156
maybe instead it let's it use it's held item twice
I'd like an ability that gives a benefit for not holding an item, but isn't something that's just a better, worse, or equal choice item/life orb/leftovers, etc.
Have they made a Special Attack version of Intimidate yet?
>>26771108
Dont use those moves then
>>26771198
>can't use those moves the entire match because the klepto user could suddenly be switched in
>Necromancy
Summons a substitute when it gets a KO
>>26771177
>Barehanded
Pokemon's Attack doubles if it is not holding an item
>Encumbrance
Pokemon's Speed is halved if it is holding an item.
>>26771212
Then knock it out or switch out :^)
>>26771000
What if the ability also disables the Pokemon from healing, both passive (leftovers) or active (recovery moves)? Also give it to a bulky pokemon and see what happens
>>26771235
would healing wish still work?
>>26771293
Yes.
>>26771326
No.
>Randomize
Normal-type moves become a random type everytime, including Normal type itself.
>Immolate
Normal-type moves become fire-type.Signature ability of mega Ninetales
Mockery-
Intimidate but for Special Attack.
>>26770960
10/10
>>26770255
nice try on trying to shill us with your shitty essentials game. fuck off go to /v/
>>26770315
/pol/ is that way --->
>>26770255
Energized: Moves no longer require re-charge
Power Surge: electric moves used by user boost sp.defense
>>26770966
That's pretty fucking good. I tried to think of a way to improve it but couldn't.
I think "Heavy Sleeper" was a bad name. It sounds like it would make the pokemon sleep for longer or the opposite of "Early Bird." A better name might be "Deep Sleep." You can wake up regularly from a deep sleep but there would be thing you are less likely to notice.
>Light sleeper
Wakes up if it takes damage from an attack.
>>26770295
Incredibly broken.
>>26771467
>Energized: Moves no longer require re-charge
Porygon-Z new ability
>Equalize
All attacks used on opponent are treated as 100℅ effectiveness, regardless of type.
Shitty name pls change
>Hatred
Pokemon loses Happiness instead of gaining it. Can only gain Happiness through fainting or giving it Energy Roots. Useful for a Pokemon with Frustration.
>Common Cold
Has a 10% chance of becoming poisoned every turn. The Pokemon is also able to spread the poisoning when hit by a Contact move while being poisoned
>>26771594
Equalize is good.
>>26771597
>Energy Root
I mean any item that usually lowers Happiness.
Soothe Bell would lower Happiness for a Hatred Pokemon.
>Party Animal
Provides a passive 1.3x boost to ally moves
>Choreography
Dance moves deal 1.5 damage
>>26770255
The game needs more ways of dealing with entry hazards. Defog, Rapid Spin, Magic Bounce and Taunt aren't enough. Something like:
>Territorial
Prevents all entry hazards from being placed while this Pokemon is out. Discourages Stall players from using hazards on their own Pokemon like Defog. Potentially burns a turn for your opponent if you predict they'll use a hazard move.
>>26771597
Should change >Common Cold to >Toxicity and give it to poison types exclusively, so they don't have to worry too much about the poison damage and can have more room for variety in move slots rather than shit that is meant to get a poison off.
Just a thought.
>>26771665
God tier suggestion, shit would add new meta.
10/10 anon.
>>26771677
Toxicity sounds kind of bland.
It could be given to Poison and Steel types, and maybe Cubchoo too as a HA.
>>26771597
Make it Mummy that passively deals damage at the end of every turn.
>>26771725
OK.
>Common Cold 2.0
Has a 10% Chance to poison the user every turn, and if it gets hit by a contact move, the target gets the ability like Mummy.
>Help me think of name
Becomes the same type as the mon it hits
>erosion
Every turn you attack is greatly increased while your defense decreases.
>>26771790
>Imitation
Give it to the mimes.
>>26771790
>Identity Theft
Reasoning: Say a murderer tried to kill a king and then pretend to be the king.
>>26771790
I'd say Mimicry since that's something animals are known for but Mimic already exists
>>26771842
Theres a move and an item both called Metronome.
>>26770255
>Mind Control
Has a 40% chance to cause its target to inflict their physical attacks on itself instead.
For example, if a Fire-type uses a Fire-type physical move on a Pokemon with Mind Control, it has a chance of hitting itself with the move, instead of the Pokemon with Mind Control.
>>26771790
protein
>>26771854
what if that fire type has flash fire, wouldn't that be helping it?
>Flex
The user flexes every turn to increase Attack by x2, but lowers every other stat as well by 0.5x.
>>26771855
Protean changes the user to the move's type.
>>26771895
Hmm... I guess it would. Not my problem. It's the user's fault.
>Synthesis
Returns 1/6 HP each turn when in an environment related to its typing.
EX: A water pokemon in water, or a grass type in a forest, or rock types in caves, etc.
>Destrudo
Raises base attack stat by 1 for every battle won (determined by if theres any exp given, disregards exp share).
>Celestial Guidance [(Sun) or (Moon)]
Raises Attack and Special Attack by one stage if fighting during the day or night, respectively.(doesn't include inside buildings or in caves)
>>26770770
I can see that. Make a Ghost type that has very very negative energy and just puts everyone down. A Negative Chansey/Togekiss.
>>26771940
>Synthesis
Needs a new name because of the move an might need to be broken into a few different abilities. Quite good though
>Destrudo
Infinitely scaling stats is busted beyond belief.
>Celestial guidance
Pretty neat, Perhaps Nocturnal/Diurnal would be better names.
>>26771993
dunno, I was thinking of raising it by a stage in battle but that's pretty much literally moxie
>Resentment
If the foe faints or switches out, drops its replacement's Special Defense by one stage.
>Empath
Duplicates the foe's healing.
>Hyper Charge
Recharge moves don't need a recharge turn if they cause the foe to faint.
>Warrior Code
Boosts Attack, but physical moves always leave the foe with at least 1HP.
>>26772049
Why Special Defense for Resentment? Why not attack or something?
Also, for Warrior Code, maybe make it boost attack sharply and leave foes with 1 hp until another attack move is aimed, otherwise it's pretty much useless unless in-game or something.
>>26770343
That would be really cool actually.
More type based abilities like Gale Wings and Lightning Rod. References to moves include entry hazards.
Immunity Abilities
>Supernatural
Boosts Sp. Atk and is immune to Normal type.
>Counterattack
Immunity to Fighting, paralyzes attacker when hit with Fighting type move
>Windbreaker
Immunity to Flying type, boosts Speed 2 stages.
>Immunity
Changed to provide immunity to Poison type moves, 30% chance to cure all status effects on switchout.
>Dementia
Applies effect of Acupressure on hit by Psychic type, immunity to Psychic type, draws in Psychic type moves.
>Mountaineer
Provides immunity to Rock type moves and all entry hazards. Removes 1 random entry hazard on switch in.
>Mirage
Boosts Evasion in sunlight, rain, hail, and sandstorm. Immunity to weather (not spore/powder moves). Immunity to Ice.
>Flyswatter
Bug-type variant of Counterattack
>Dragonborn
Dragon-type Flash Fire
>Skeptic
150% Sp. Def. boost. Immunity to Ghost.

>Morning Mist
Evades first attack. Immunity to Fairy.

>Aura Force
Fighting +1 Priority
Non Type Linked Abilities
>Egalitarian
Ignores type effectiveness, including from dual typed moves and special type effectiveness such as Freeze-Dry. Ignores opponent's Turboblaze, Teravolt, or Mold Breaker abilities.
>>26771913
I actually just programmed Flex in. I might call it something else like Steroids.
>>26772195
I renamed it Steroids. It increases Attack by 6 stages every turn, and decreases every other stat every turn by one stage. I might double the weakened stats.
>Rewrite
Any move that would OHKO the 'mon would:
-Lessen attack power by 30% if the two 'mons are within 10 levels of each other
-Lessen by 75% if between 11-39
-Completely negate at an upwards of 40
>Bleeding Heart
Special Defense and Defense are raised when hit with a contact move.
>Distribution
Supereffective attacks get 20% of their power reflected back onto the attacker.
>>26772087
Why Attack? Why not Special Defense or something?
It has to be something (or random, but that's less interesting). I figure that it probably goes with Ghosts thematically as it feels like a lingering resentful curse, and most of those are attack with Special. This way, it works a little like a non-symmetrical Special version of Moxie that can't be stacked but that also applies to switches (especially relevant given Ghost's immunities) and that sticks around even if you're forced out or faint yourself. Attack also already has a pretty similar ability in Intimidate, so it could certainly also have worked as a Specially defensive similar to that in the same way as it currently is a Specially offensive ability similar to Moxie.
>Also, for Warrior Code, maybe make it boost attack sharply and leave foes with 1 hp until another attack move is aimed, otherwise it's pretty much useless unless in-game or something.
The idea is that you'd have to be mixed and use a weaker (priority?) Special move, or else rely on some kind of residual damage. I originally thought to let it KO at 1HP, but the wording got pretty messy as its a more complex idea than Abilities usually convey.
>>26772097
Continued:
>Globalist
Targeted moves hit all opponents in Double/Triple Battles. Physical/Special moves have attack power reduced to 60% in Doubles/45% in Triples.
>Localist
Moves that would otherwise hit multiple opponents are aimed. Can hit non-adjacent opponents. Moves hit 2 times in Double Battles/3 times in Triple Battles if otherwise an AoE move.
>Patriarchy
If opponent is female, moves gain +1 priority. (Male-exclusive Pokemon)
>Matriarchy
If opponent is male, moves gain +1 priority. (Female-exclusive Pokemon)
>Conqueror
Transforms into opponent upon KO. (Attacks can't kill opponent, but if opponent is at 1 health at end of turn user transforms into opponent then hits with a 10BP non-typed move before all other effects on turn end.)
>Hikikomori/Loner
Special >>26771913
>Diplomat
If same opponent is not targeted by any moves besides moves such as Heal Pulse and isn't switched for 10 moves, opponent is given "unwilling" status/is KO'd (depending on if hack or for ground-up game)
>Populist
Attacks hit for X hits with 1/(X-1) power, where X is the number of unfainted Pokemon on user's team.
>Deicide
Attacks do (median base stat of opponent)% damage.
>>26772344
I can code in Hikikomori/Loner, but I'm calling it LSD because I renamed Flex to Steroids.
>>26772265
And the amount of Poke Balls in your bag is halved
>>26772478
That's dumb.
>Unstoppable Force
Speed is doubled. (Basically Huge Power for Speed) Give it to Rampardos
>Draconate
Turns Normal Type moves to Dragon Type and raises damage by 30%
>Immolate
See above, but for Fire
>Flash Flood
All Water type moves have +1 Priority
>>26772414
OK, I programmed in Steroids and LSD.
Steroids will boost your Attack by 6 Stages on the first turn as well as reduce every other stat (besides accuracy and evasion) by 1 stage after. LSD is the same, but with Sp. Attack instead. I made them HAs for Machamp and Alakazam, respectively.
>>26772657
have you programed in any other of the abilities in the thread?
>>26772657
To clarify: every turn after the 6x boost all stats will lower by 1 stage except attack/sp. attack depending on the abillity.
>>26772675
The Global Warming/Cooling Abilities I had programmed already. I'm still new to RPG Maker XP and Essentials so I can't program everything. These are great Ideas though, and I can do Speed Boost-like Abilities and Pixilate-like Abilities.
I'm working on a project called Pokemon Evolution Blue. It has Mega Evolution (With new Megas too), new baby evos for pokemon like Kangaskhan and Tropius, different forms for Pokemon (ie. Voltorb and Electrode depending on what Ball you caught it in), and some Fakemon and Characters from other franchises. I guess it's a mashup game.
>>26772097
lol I just read this and Dragonborn sounds fucking awesome, I'm gonna try to put this in. Too ebin not to.
>>26772751
I think I programmed it lol I got it all down but I'm still wondering if it powers fire moves instead. It shouldn't tho I'll worry about it later
>>26772864
Proof.
I guess it'll be a HA for Druddigon.
I chose Druddigon for no reason other than he's a Dragon-type.
>>26772881
Also It could be Mega Druddigon's Ability, because why not
>>26772344
u know populist does more damage the fewer pokemon u have, right
>>26771913
>>26772195
>>26772265
That seems a little OP. Why not have it be like Truant, but every other turn it flexes instead of slacking off, granting a +2 attack boost?
>Perfectionist
>Innacurate moves become less powerful, but have increased accuracy.
Multiply every move's BP by its accuracy for new BP (ex. Hydro Pump 110 × 0.8 = 88). All moves now have 100 accuracy before evasion modifiers. Moves with 100 accuracy are unaffected.
Also give a 1.5× boost to "never miss" moves like Aerial Ace and Aura Sphere, just because.
>Adrenaline
If the user gets below 10% health, its speed is boosted by 3 stages. Speed comes back to normal if the user heals above 10% hp
>Prohibition
When a pokemon with this ability it's in battle, all items have no effects on both sides
>Attention Seeker
In double and triple battles, the user has 25% chance to take a hit instead of its partners
>>26770319
make water attack burn and ice attacks turn into water
>Toxic Body
Any instance of poison created by the user becomes toxic poison instead.
>Quick Bind
Acts as an instant Imprison; the opponent cannot use any moves that the user also knows.
>>26770871
Sounds like a variation of Stench
>fast hitter
gives +1 priority to weak attacks (let's say <50 BP)
>all out
gives a x1.5 boost to all attacks but decreases both defensive stats by one stage each time
>vengeful
deals extra damage if the target hits you first, but deals reduced damage if it doesn't
>Intoxicate
Poison type version of Pixelate
Oh hey I saw your Voltorb thread
I'd love to help sprite for your game
>Last Gasp
When faints, uses a random move.
>Volatile
Contact moves have a 30% chance to make pokemon explode
the Explosion would have 300BP and ignore types/defences. Obviously makes pokemon faint
Would be given to 'explosive' pokemon like Electrode and Weezing
>>26770255
>Fortified
Sharply raises defense and special defense if the Pokemon is charging/recharging after a move.
>>26770800
So, levitate for the standing mons
The Indian Elephants Consternation
If the user is smaller than the opponent, the opponent is forced to switch in fear upon entry
>>26774369
Should be called final words
>Amorous
- moves have 10% chance to cause Attraction
- can inflict attraction on any pokemon (except pokemon with this ability or Oblivious)
>>26770255
Power Skin
User can only be damaged by moves with original BPs above 80.
This ability basically tells Technician to go fuck itself, and trolls multi hit spam.
>Pack Leader
Attack and Speed are both raised one stage when this pokemon is sent out first before any party pokemon
>Pack Hunter
Attack is raised by one stage for every party pokemon sent out prior to switching in
>>26770255
>Density Break
All physical moves done by the user will apply damage to the foe as if their Defense stat is 0, in exchange the user is unable to attack for two turns.
>Contagious
Enemy pokemon hit with this ability on copies any status the user is suffering from
>Mirror Image
Upon switching in, the enemy pokemon copies the ability user's stats, moves and appearance
>Autism
Base stats + IVs are multiplied by 1.2x. User has -1 priority and -10% accuracy.
>>26775569
Would be far too overpowered
Better way of doing it
>Glass Armor
-Low power moves deal greatly reduced damage (-75%)
-BUT High power moves deal increased damage (+50%)
-Low power = 60BP or less
-High power =100BP or more
>>26775635
How would it be OP if everyone spams moves with BPs above 80 all the time?
>Dimension Shift
User can switch anytime in the battle even in the middle of the opponent's turns.
>>26775648
Because in-game that pokemon would be basically untouchable in the early levels`
>>26770428
Nightmare fuel
>>26770343
>ice beam
>signal beam
?
useless
>Galant Fists
Punch move have priority increased by 1
>Blasting Zone
gives all attacks an AoE that deals 25% of the move's power (ignores status/stat effects) to all other pokemon on the field.
obviously moves like Discharge, Surf that already hit everything don't work, or moves with fixed damage like Seismic Toss.
>>26775665
>dazzling gleam
>flash cannon>hyper beam
>>26771913
Underfail pls go and stay go.
Solar Panel: Makes you absorb light-based moves for HP.
Light-based moves and why I included them:
- Aurora Beam (described as rainbow-colored beam)
- Confuse Ray (ひかり in Japanese name, meaning "light")
- Dazzling Gleam (described as powerful flash)
- Doom Desire (described as concentrated bundle of light)
- Flash (d'oh)
- Flash Cannon (described as releasing light energy)
- Light of Ruin (described as beam of light)

This is a great Ability, lol.
>>26775797
it would work better if it was given to a mon with lots of special moves imo
otherwise it's just like high jump kick
>Mold Spores
Inverts effect of berries held in battle upon contact. (Chesto Berry causes sleep, Sitrus Berry causes damage when health is low, damage berries increase super-effectiveness of their type, etc.) In turn, this Pokemon also receives these effects from holding berries itself. When activated, the message "<pokemon>'s <berry> turned rotten!" is displayed.
Infection- Spreads upon contact and poisons.
Basically a Mummy that poisons whatever gains the ability. Poison/Steel are immune to the poison but not to gaining the ability. Given to a rat/mouse Pokemon to reference the plague.
Mirrored Action- Has a 30% chance of copying the opponent.
Consumes 1 PP of the move the Pokemon was originally going to use before the Ability activates, then uses whatever move the opponent last used. Can be good/bad depending on the move copied (like if you wanted to attack but instead copy Recover, or wanted to heal but end up copying Flamethrower). It cannot copy moves like Mirror Move, Copycat, or Mimic.
>Fortify
The user's defenses increase each round, while dropping its speed. Give it to Shuckle.

Rock/Steel type moves used by the attacker will never miss
It needs a better name though

1/0 =/= infinite
>>26773978
Cool! Sorry I was on hiatus for awhile, I went to sleep.
Specifically what do you want to help with in terms of spriting?
>>26774575
Its a good idea, but Essentials only allows moves to be as powerful as 255BP if i'm not mistaken.
>>26776315
I could probably implement this
>>26775799
I can do that, and rename the Global Warming 1.0 to Boiling Point.
>>26776333
Nice Trips anon
>>26777592
I'm still not finished with all the Voltorb variants, and not even started with the Electrodes. I've only finished the Great Ball, Ultra Ball, Safari Ball, and Net Ball Voltorbs along with their backsprites.
>>26775799
OK I programmed this in, along with an ability called
>Hot Ice
Ice-type moves become Fire-type moves

Skater
Acid Rain
Causes acid rain to fall from the sky for 5 turns, 8 with (insert name here) Stone. Allows poison moves and poison statuses to affect steel types. Poison gains 30% increase to defense and special defense. Water type moves have a 10% chance to poison the opponent but reduced the chance of other effects by 2/3. All Poison type attacking moves have a 20% chance to badly poison the opponent.
Given to Garbador, Gengar, and Muk.
>>26770255
>Global Cooling
Non Ice type pokemon get -2 speed and ice types get +2 speed
>Global Warming
This essentially drought already, if drought wasnt a thing, i'd say what it does should be called global warming.
>>26778140
Now that I think about it the Badly Poison part would be OP
>>26770857
So thicc everyone uncomfortable

I want it
I've come up with some that will ideally be in a fan game I'm trying to make
>Shrill
Sound-based moves have a 20/25/30% (?) chance to cause opponent to flinch
>Evil Eye
Special variant of Intimidate
>Sunbathing
Sun variant of Rain Dish
>Colony
Gives +1 Atk, Def, SpA, and SpD if partner (in doubles/triples) is the same species (would have to be balanced by distribution, giving it to crappy little mons like ants/bees/tiny fish makes sense to me)
>Slick Coat
This Pokemon's speed cannot be lowered (including by paralysis)
I can share more if people think these are any good.
>>26779012
I could probably do Sunbathing
>>26775665

>>26770343
>>26775665
Pretty much this. Am I missing any important beam moves?
>Ice Beam
>Charge Beam
>Signal Beam
While Cryogonal is already known for being specially defensive as fuck. What a waste.

Reversed Defeatist, but for Attack
For every 1/6th of one's HP lost, it gains a boost in attack

What about Carnivore
Like rough skin, but deals less damage, and tmwith this ability, any physical contact the user makes, it gains a little health back
>Celestial Grace
Pokemon deals x1.3 damage when using celestial based attacks (Draco Meteor, Moonblast....he, there's probably at least a couple more I can't think of right now)
>Trump card
If the pokemon(with the ability) gets hit with a resistant/immune attack they gain priority until either pokemon switches out/faints .
>>26781119
Trump Card is already a move
>>26781164
>Deals more damage the less pp you have
Get rid of it, replace it with my far superior idea. make trump card great (again?).
>Inversal
Completely reverses the Type Matchup in battle. (For example, Fire Type attacks would now be super effective against Water Type Pokémon.)
