I'll admit, I'm definitely tired of the meme with the starters always having these abilities at this point.
We all know they're going to release hidden abilities of them one day anyway with abilities that will inevitably outclass their normal one.

I'm okay with them if they added Hidden Ability Capsules or backfilled all starters to have a second "normal ability" that is only obtained through breeding or regular Ability Capsules
Just because you can't use them effectively means they should be removed

The fact that your first bro can never be viable always bothered me

With bottle caps they can be
The point of them are for little kids playing the single player. Boosted attack 'in a pinch' i.e. when you're losing? Kids love that shit.

Confirmed for not knowing shit. You don't need to get that low.

Have you been living under a rock? The Fairy-type was added in Pokémon X and Y to counter Dragon-types.

A few therotically can with Hyper Training becoming a thing. Any modest/timid Charmander could become a proper Charizard Y for example.

These abilities are fine and balanced for the challenges in-game imo. Anything else, I don't know. I suppose there are ways to make it work, but there is a good instance I have with that shitty fangame Uranium. I got mad that one of the starters had Static... and parahax caused me lose the very first fucking battle. And that's not "hard" when you are not allowed to grind or have items and are only given a physical move. So you basically have no goddamn choice if your Rival ends up with that goofy looking water horse.

But those are amazing abilities for speedrunning.

They just need to be changed to a 30% boost that is active at all times.
>>28942885
I stopped playing after that, I'm glad the game was shit
>>28944382
I stopped playing the moment I got my starter. All of the designs are trash.
>>28942322
That's not funny. That just scares me.
How about we retcon it so that they all physically change appearance when the ability activates to show it's time for them to get serious.
