ITT: we come up with sensible and unique new abilities.

Miner, Fisher, Harvester, Exterminator, Monster Hunter, Dragon Slayer, Mike Pence, Misanthrope for other egg groups

Ground-type moves are twice as powerful towards the Pokémon, but it gains immunity to Flying-type moves.
>>30878220

fuck off

>>30878356

>>30878352
Fucking casual.
>>30878281
>Mike Pence
>Opposing pokemon of the same gender receive 25% more damage from electric-type attacks.
>>30878220
explosion based abilities:
>Detonator
Increases the power of Self-Destruct, Explosion, and bomb moves

If the wielder faints, it explodes (uses Explosion)

The wielder can use Self-Destruct or Explosion without fainting, but only once per battle.
>>30878352

Bulletproof makes perfect sense in japanese. Localization team is just retards and change names for no reason.
>>30878413
>Mega-Voltorb with an Autokill faint Ability that explodes in the face of whoever downs it for a potential OHKO on a smart switchin
Think of the shitfest. Every competitive team would have a ticking time-bomb on it. At least it'd be better than this dogshit Aegislash/Tapu spam.
a signature ability for octillery that powers up beam moves
sorry i am bad at coming up with creative names
Willpower: The stat multiplier for natures become x1.2 and x1.0, rather than the usual x1.1 and x0.9
>>30878478
Bulletproof is Bulletproof in Japanese, boi
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Bulletproof_(Ability)
why you lyin'
>>30878464
Go back to ledddit underage.
>Punch Pads
Pokemon is immune to Punching moves
Should've been Crabominable's ability and should've been a counter part to Crabrawler
>>30878464
Starters have these already, and they're terrible.
>>30878413
Big Bang should be modified to be similar to Sturdy. If the Pokémon is knocked out from full health then it explodes.
>>30878512
The names of the attacks Bulletproof protects against are fucked up in English.
"Acid Spray" is "Acid Bomb" in Japanese, for example.
Fighting Spirit: stats can increase more than six times (ten)
Whatever helps shitmons to be less shitty
>>30878740
>hurr durr make more stats 2 be gud, ledddit gabe me this ideal xDDDDD
>>30878392
It won't stack in that way.
The new BP will take the attacks innate new power from the double, then add the 20 from the ability, getting to +80 on use number 5, as it only works on consecutive uses and starts counting on use 2.
>Petrifying Gaze
At the end of every turn the opposing Pokémon's Speed drops by one stage.
>Anaerobic
The moment the Pokémon enters the battle it receives a one stage boost to every stat. At the end of the turn it makes a move all of its stats sharply drop.
>Bulwark
Ally Pokémon get a Defense and Special Defense stat identical to the one with Guardian as long as it is in the field.
>Savvy
Can use man-made healing items in a pinch.
>Peer Pressure
Forces the surrounding Pokémon to get the effect of "Psych Up" at the end of every turn.
>Tardy
Switching this Pokémon out has negative priority.
>>30878899
You seem to know Reddit very well, faggot.
Fulfillment - Your Pokemon, upon entering the battlefield, finds true love, happiness, and stable financial income
>>30878558
Good one
>>30878418
most bullet attacks are pretty obvious, though. you can look at an attack and say whether it's a bullet attack or not fairly easily, compared to 'yes i bred this pokemon with smeargle once so i know its a field mon"
next to that is bulletproof a defensive ability, and is far more passive than 'i think this pokemon is in the field egg group so i'll force a switch with predator"

Dubs confirms faggotry
Stalagmonstrous: Ground-type moves this Pokemon uses become Rock-Type and deal 1.2x damage. (a la Pixilate/Refrigerate)
>Downside: can't handle Electric types any longer.
>Upside: murder the crap out of those damn birds with more accurate freaking rock moves.
