Overpowered, balanced, shit, all welcome here. Suggestions to buff current abilities also welcome
>Speed Shift
Randomly, when sent out, this Pokemon is either always faster than the opponent or always slower.

>Underdog
Inverts the BP of moves by subtracting the listed BP from 150, to a minimum of 1.
So for example, Hyper Beam has 1 BP, and Tackle has 110.

>Melt
When hit with a Fire-type move, the Pokemon turns into a Water-type.
This would be good for Pokemon that are Ice-type by default.

And now some shit abilities:

>Dual Wield
The Pokemon can hold two items.

>Stubborn
For every failed catch attempt (broken Pokeball), the Pokemon's stats permanently increases by the equivalent of one stage. This is a shitty ability because once you finally catch it, it basically won't have an ability at all. To make it even shittier, this Pokemon should be super-easy to catch; the catch rate should be so high that you can easily catch it with a standard Pokeball at full health.

>Last Ditch Effort
If your Pokemon is supposed to faint due to out-of-turn events (such as Poison, Burn, Sandstorm, Hail, Leech Seed, Fire Spin, etc.), its HP will go down to 1 instead of 0. Its Speed, Attack, and Special Attack stats will go up the maximum number of stages.

If it somehow survives its next turn (example: your opponent uses a non-damaging move, and the Sandstorm that should've fainted your Pokemon subsides), all stat boosts will nullify completely.

Adjusts based on how many times it hits.
hP=150-(b*h)
With h being the number of hits, p being the final BP, and b being the original BP.
Rock Blast and Pin Missile both have 25 BP, so for 2 hits it's 100 BP, for 3 it's 25 BP, for 4 it's 12.5 BP, and for 5 it's 5 BP.

Quoted By:

>Power Fantasy:
Raises attack when under the effects of Trick Room or Wonder Room.

>Indecisive:
Attacks have an increased crit chance, but there’s an equal chance the Pokémon will do significantly less damage.

>Seige Monster:
Stab attacks do additional damage to rock and steel types.

>Rapid Exertion:
Damaging moves double in base power (to a maximum of 200), but the user has to recharge after each attack.

>M.A.D:
If the Pokémon with this ability faints within 3 turns after being sent out, the opponent Pokémon also faints.

>Rising Power (reworked Slow Start for mega/primal/etc Regigigas)
The Pokémon’s attack and speed stats lower 3 stages (how however many it would take to half the stat). At the beginning of each turn, the user’s attack and speed rise a stage.

Dual wield would be balanced if you had to sacrifice a move slot (or two) to use it. Melt sounds based if you had a King's Shield type move like Freezer Burn or something to regain the status

Slow Start: This Pokemon will always act last each turn, irregardless of how their move normally acts. This ignores priority.
Example: Focus Punch does not begin charging until all other Pokemon complete their actions, guaranteeing it will always come out.
Example 2: Protect does nothing, as no other attacks can occur by the time the Slow Start user acts.

The user is immune to moves with less than 95% accuracy. Accuracy buffs are taken into account, but not Evasion changes / Accuracy debuffs, and Keen Eye ignores this ability.

>Royal Aura
The user's moves will not decrease their own stats. Aura Break causes the user to be unable to raise their own stats.

>Fierce Aura
The user's supereffective moves deal 1.25x more damage. Aura break will make them deal 0.75x instead.

Doubles the power of moves if used in alternation of one another.

If the Pokémon is switched out, uses a different move, or uses the move unsuccessfully the bonus is reset to 0%.

I mean, Mega Zoroark wouldn't be that good. Megas gain 100 stat points NOT in HP so it'd still be frail as shit. What that ability does is reverse the same trick Zoroark uses; instead of hiding as its allies, it disguises its allies as itself so you could switch in a really bulky Pokémon disguised as Mega Zoroark, and the opponent, instead of thinking "Is it Zoroark? If it is I can one-shot it with this" they'll be wondering if it ISN'T Zoroark, and if not, which one. They'll still have to pay attention to team preview, but in a different way now. Also, it's a bit kabuki theatre-themed, (like Zoroark as undertones of with his facial markings that resemble kumadori) turning the entire battle into a little performance.
