    What do you think? What ability for a pokemon do you hate the most? Personally, I HATE Lopunnys ability, Klutz. All it does is makes it not able to hold, hold items.

    I still havent found a point to that ability...So, What does everyone else hate as an ability?




    Also, If you have any experiences with these hated abilitys in battles, OR have advice for other people who run into these "bad" abilitys, then feel free to help. Have fun!

    Slow Start is kinda Crappy as well, since you need speed. it's one of the Most Important Stats.
     
    i dont lyke slow start cauz it halves speed AND attack. normalize sux, klutz, and espicially traunt(sp). they all SUCK! oh yeh yamega skittys other ability is cute charm.
     
    Well, the lamest ability one of my pokemon ever had was Run Away on my Ponyta. lmao.. =/ I didn't notice until after I was training it for a while, and didn't feel like getting a new one.
     
    Wow

    I never heard of Normalize, but it sounds REALLY bad.
     
    I hate Truant, but it's fair to put it on Slaking since it has stats on par with some legendaries. Run Away, in my opinion, is either lame or helpful. It's pretty lame if your Pokemon has a high Speed rating *coughFurretcough* and usually has no trouble running away from battles. It can be helpful if you find yourself up against high-leveled Pokemon that you normally can't hope to escape from.

    Those are some good points. Traunt is a stupid ability, but at least they gave it to Slaking. If they gave it to something like a Skiploom or something, then their would be some problems lol.
     
    The worst ability is definitely Truant and Slow Start. Klutz can be used if you have a great strategy, just like Truant(non-DP Hyper Beam) and SlowStart(Trick Room). The problem with using Klutz is the Pokémon must have Switcheroo, to switch (Toxic)Fire Orb/Iron Ball/Choice Band(Scarf) or some other items. Even if you obtain a Choice Item via Switcheroo, Klutz disables its use and allows you to use another attack.
     
    Truant is the one I hate the most. It makes me unable to use the fully evolved version of my favorite pogeymahn (vigoroth ftw).
     
    Hmm...I hate the abilties:

    Klutz- Buneary and Loppuny should have the ability, Own Tempo or something...:X
    Normalize- Please...don't even get me started on this....Skitty and Delcatty is fine with Cute Charm...WHy do they have to give them another ability...
    Stall- Sableye isn't strong but it has some possibilities, Keen Eye was useless most of the time so why give Sableye Stall!?

    Truant? There's nothing wrong with it...It gives so advantage..well only if you have the Move Skill Swap....
     
    Truant is the worst ability. Without it, Slaking would be the most popular competitive physical sweeper of all time. Klutz does have its uses though. I once fought someone who used a Lopunny that Tricked a Flame Orb onto my best physical sweeper, and led me through a chain of events that led to my defeat.
     
    Definatly no guard
    theres really no point, why does machop have it...


    no guard is great for moves that dont hit often- remember, it's not just that machop always gets hit, the opponent always gets hit too


    but truant is bad, i dont like it
     
    Wow

    Wow, I love watching my thread fill up like this, thanks everyone for the posts. Other than,

    ------------
    Stall
    Normalize
    Klutz
    Traunt
    Dry Skin
    Slow Start
    Guard
    ------------
    Are their any more that people dislike?


    Also, anyone want to tell us about their encounters with Pokemon that had these abilitys, and what happened?

    Also, Mods, I forgot to put this in a different forum, so could somone please move this? It would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
    Don't you think it adds realism to the game?

    I'm sure not all Pokemon are great at holding things.
