Awhile back I made a thread with practically the same name as this one and it was pretty popular for about a second. And since I've come back, I decided, "Hey, why not make it again?" With the new Fairy type and other things brought about by X and Y (Megas and whatnot) this thread will be even more different from the last one.

Let's begin! The idea is simple, make an ability for a Pokemon!

Example:
Iron Body:
The Pokemon is unable to be lowered in Defense or Special Defense. (Close Combat abuse ahoy!)

I'll probably post some in here too.

Spoiler:
Here's that last thread I mentioned: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=256285
I'd say check it out, I like some of the ideas in it.

Kleptomaniac:
30% Chance to steal an item upon contact. (Fails if item is already carried.)

Avalanche Heal:
Heals a little HP every turn in a Snow Storm.


Scratch that one, forgot about Ice Body.

Speed Match:
Upon switch-in, if the opponent has higher speed, you are given x2 Speed Boost. Lower speed gives you x0.5 times speed boost. (Better for slower Pokemon.)

I'll have more later.

That already exists. It's called Ice Body.

Suppose I should come up with something....
Scorched Heal: If the Pokemon is burned, it recovers 1/8 of its HP at the end of every turn (basically a burn version of Poison Heal)

Indomitable Fists: Every time the Pokemon uses a punching move or Close Combat, Attack is raised by one stage (bit like Power-Up Punch, but as an ability)

Coup de grace- When knocking out an opponent with less than 1/3 health, SP.A and Speed are raised by two stages.

Dang, this caught on better than the first time! @No Chance Without Zekrom: Ah... I forgot completely about ice body...

Hydroelectric: For water Pokemon, if hit by an electric attack, the Pokemon will gain either +1 Attack or +1 Sp. Attack, no damage will be taken.

Quick Thinker: Priority moves will not have priority if used on this Pokemon and will instead become 0 priority like most normal moves.

Life Force: Attack power is doubled at the cost of HP every turn. (Pretty much an OP Life Orb ability.)

Pixie Shield: The Pokemon will be unaffected by dragon types, regardless of its own typing.

Sharpen: All slash/sword based moves are upped in power by 50%. (Leaf Blade, Psycho Cut, Slash, Night Slash, Sacred Sword, etc.)

Prioritize: Increases the base power of all priority moves by 1.5×.

Mind Force: Boosts the power of moves that do not make contact by 1.2×. (i.e; Hydro Pump would become 144 BP w/ Mind Force.)

Inverse Build: Swaps the user's attacking stats depending on the category of the move used. (i.e; Before a special move is used, it would swap the stats so that the Pokemon has a higher Sp.A stat; if it is already higher, then no change is made. The same for Physical attacks.)

Persistence: When attacking, the user attacks all of the Pokemon in the opponent's party. The amount of damage is split depending on the amount of the Pokemon in the opponent's party.

Super Emission: All Beam moves are boosted to 2x, but Defense lowers every use of a Beam move. (Hyper Beam, Solar Beam, Charge Beam, etc.)

Extremist: This ability doubles the amount of status changes on the user or on an opponent if used the second time in a row. This also stacks any status drops/increases made on the user by a foe, or by moves like Close Combat.

For example, if a Geodude used Harden the last turn, the Harden this turn would be twice as effective. The third time in a row would be thrice as effective and so on.

Emergency Generator:
When all PP is out on one move, Pokemon regains 1 PP to it.

Chlorophyll already doubles Speed in the sun. I like your Atomic Power ability, btw.
