Levitate is removed from the game. All Pokemon who float above the ground now have a natural immunity to Earthquake and the like, though they can still be hit by non-earth related Ground moves.
All Pokemon that had Levitate now get a new ability in its place. What do they get?
Pic related: Solrock gets Drought and Lunatone gets Intimidate.

I wish so. A new hidden mechanics, like the many we already have, like a division between earthbound and floating/flying pokemon.
Flygon - Sand force
Gastly and Haunter - cursed body
Rotom - motor drive
Hydreigon - sheer force

Also to balance the fact that now a shit-ton of pokemon now are immunes to ground moved: BP of EQ is now 120.

...You know, I was going to say "It's 4x weak to a fairly common attacking type with 600 BST, so it should be fine"; then I realized that also describes Genesect and Shaymin-Sky.
...Eh, Shaymin-Sky just made people sad with Serene Grace, and Genesect is a Steel-type, so that automatically helps with bulk.
