What it says on the tin. Only not very effective moves can hit the mon. What typings would it be the worst for? The best? What could be the lore behind it?
I wanna give it to a pure Ice type.
Also just fake abilities thread in general I guess.

Sure, let me just Skill Swap it onto a pure Normal-type.

You can already skill swap wonder guard on a pokemon who used Burn Up and smogon or VGC isn't upset about that. Skill Swap strats are fun to think about, but are too easy to stop to be a concern for competitive.
Hell, if this mon was common in the meta, that would help balance him. If you saw a pure normal come into the field against your Draug Rednow mon, you'd know there was a chance a Skill Swap is coming your way, forcing you to switch out, KO the opponent, roar the other mon away, or have to deal with a mon immune to attacks that you have to toxic. I could see that being a fun element of mindgame, if it's not as omnipresent as M-Ray in the VGC where it was allowed.

If Skill Swap was a viable strategy, Slaking would be the best mon in the game.

Is Eelektross nowhere to be seen because it gets countered by ability canceling abilities, or because it's a shitmon?

Because it's a shitmon.
Turns out that you can't even save a SFMA by giving it no weaknesses.

Shedinja would unironically be a stronger Mon if it had Magic Guard as a hidden ability. At least it would be allowed to do something since it would be a gamble which Guard it is packing

Quoted By:

Ability: Powerful Pride
The Pokemon refuses to use any moves unless it's below half HP.
It would be the signature ability of a mon with base stats on par with Mega Rayquaza.

Some abilities for ghosts,not that they needed a boost, though.

Incorporeal
The Pokemon is immune to contact moves.

Last Laugh
If the Pokemon faints due to an attack, reduce to 0 the PP of the opponent's attack (basically Grudge as an ability)

Haunt
If the opponent switches, your attack hits before the switch at 50% power (or 70%? not good at balancing).
