    I can't believe, that thread wasn't there!

    Anyway. From all of the know pokemon abilities - what are your personal favorites? I mean in general - anime and also games?

    Anime: I always loved the starters power up abilities like Blaze, Overgrow and Torrent. My personal favorite is the Blaze... The way Ash's Chimchar was on Blaze... Massacre! Ash's Charizard on Blaze was cool too. I can say I didn't see Torrent much, the first one I saw was on Barry's Empoleon.

    Games: Again starters power up abilities and also Guts on some fighting types, like Machop. I found it very useful while playing Platinum. Keen eye and Magma armor are awesome for me, as well.
     
    I like the ability, Clear Body, that my Metegross has. Prevents stat loss caused by another pokemon and can come in handy during battles.

    Another ability I admire is my Poliwrath's, Water Absorb. Pidgeot's Keen Eye often came in handy in tight battles aswell.
     
    Intimidate - thank you
    I also appreciate clear body and shed skin
    Run away has its time and place

    Click to expand...

    That's an attack, not and ability. XD

    Sniper is pretty cool, especially when combined with a scope lens, and high-crit attacks like Slash, Night Slash, and Cross Poison

    Also, my Dry Skin Toxicroak makes a downright sexy pokemon to use in the rain or partnered with a surfer. XD
     
    Wonder Guard! xD

    What's not to love about it? You can only get hit by moves that are super effective! :P
     
    Clear Body, Technician, and Volt Absorb are among my favorites, and quite prevalent on my team.

    Metagross has nothing to fear from Intimidate. Jolteon is a perfect switch-in to other Electric-types. And Persian's combo of Fake Out+STAB+Technician = win.
     
    There's no question about it, Wonderguard takes the cake. And have you ever seen someone switch in a Shedinja against a Pokemon with Trace? You've never seen rage like that before...
     
    Frisk, Trace, Technician, Pressure, Levitate, Tinted Lens, Poison Heal

    Frisk: a fainted Butterfree in my first slot, a Frisk like a Shuppet or Stantler in my second, and either Skitty or Stantler to take hold items by Thief/Covet. Win win.

    Trace: on a Protect lead...

    Technician is what it is.

    Pressure: Aerodactyl used Protect! Aerodactyl used Stealth Rock! Aerodactyl flew up in the air!

    Levitate: well, those that can are generally better than flying types.

    Tinted Lens: two Yanmega go round the outside, round the outside :P

    Poison Heal: Choice Scarf Breloom switched into a Toxic Spike!
     
    Poison Point i think it is called. Poisoning enemy pokemon is epic ^.^
     
    Recently I've found Pick Up and Own Tempo extremely useful... Rare Candies, Rare Candies everywhere, same goes for Supersonic Pokemons....
     
    No Guard is my all time favorite. I once had a Machamp with No Guard and the move Dynamic Punch. It knocked out everything with 100% accuracy all the time. Even if my opponent wasn't knocked out it still became confused from Dynamic Punch's side affect.
     
    I currently have my username dedicated to my favourite ability. It is, of couse, Serene Grace.

    The reason I love it so much is that it's in-game use has saved me twice. Once with a Togetic against the Elite Four (I manage to get three consecutive flinches on Lance's Dragonite) and once online (this time two flinches but enough to take down my enemy's annoying Charizard). So yeah, its unique style has definitley come in handy quite a lot for me.
     
    I'd have to say Steadfast, not only because Luca and 'Lade have it, but it kind of counters Flinchax, I also <3 mold breaker
