>>33811668Receiver and Power of Alchemy both SHOULD let you get your ally's ability after a U-Turn or Switch. It makes the ability better without breaking the game. Because, currently, having either ability is like having no ability at all unless you want your teammate to get KO'd. Kind of a shitty ability in that regard
I can imagine the possibilities for building momentum and crazy strategies in a team too
OP's example of having a Receiver come out after Koko's Volt Switch to keep Terrain going is a good one
Some other possible executions could be really niche shit like U-Turning out a Tinted Lens Yanmega to a Power of Alchemy A-Muk, who then uses its new Tinted Lens ability from switching in to use boosted Knock Offs against Fairies and Steels.
Or using U-Turn on Mega Pidgeot into Passimian in Doubles. Passimian wearing a Choice Scarf comes in, picks up No Guard, and just rains speedy 100% acc Rock Slides onto your opponents.
Fuck, you could even use U-Turn on a Zoroark and use Illusion to mask your Passimian/A-Muk as something else. Assuming it would work that way and activate before they switch in (which it doesn't currently)
