An idea for a new ability!!

[Mega NOBODY]

Hello people of the pokecommunity, it's my first day here (so exciting!!). Anyway this post is because I had an idea about an ability.


Well the ability is one that can set up trickroom like the weather abilities. Now I know that an ability like that would be game breaking so I have added a few clauses to decrease its power.

Clause 1:Trick Room will activate at the end of the turn like Gliscor's Poison Heal ability.
Clause 2:Trick Room will wear off if the pokemon with the ability switches out even if there were more turns left.
Clause 3:In double battles this ability will make Trick Room last only for 2 turns(Or 1, if you think 2 is overpowered as well)


Pokémon with the ability: Slowbro, Slowking, Mega Slowbro, Reuniclus, Dusclops, Dusknoir


I found that with the clauses this ability is quite balanced imo.

That's actually a really good idea! I like the clauses since they balance it out a bit. It would make sense though since some of those abilities that induce weather are a bit annoying anyway.

If it seems a little too good, at least an ability that can lengthen the effects of moves like Trick Room, Reflect, Light Screen, etc. would be really nice to have xD

Hey, I think it could work. Abilities are supposed to make it more interesting so yeah.

Hey Guys thnx for replying, to be honest an ability like this is usually considered broken because a lot of pokemon become very powerful. Slow pokemon are usually have more power than faster pokemon and are very hard to wall so I added the second clause, that way only that pokemon with the ability gets the benefit. And then the third clause was added because even if the pokemon doesn't switch out a combination of Dusclops and Mega Mawile would be terrifying hence I added the third clause that way in vgc this ability will only activate Trickroom for two turns.
