General Changes:
- A full Hidden Ability system was not implemented; however, certain Pokemon have received their Hidden Abilities as Secondary Abilities if they either benefit greatly from them or if the abilities are particularly thematic or interesting.
Examples: Sylveon now has Pixelate, Gliscor has Poison Heal, and Crawdaunt has Adaptability. - Some Pokemon received upgraded abilities based solely on personal design preference.
Examples: Blastoise now has Mega Launcher, and Archeops has Tangled Feet. - All ability changes apply to the entire evolutionary line, unless otherwise stated.
- All Starter Pokemon automatically receive their Hidden Abilities (when applicable) as their Secondary Abilities.
- If a Pokemon line is not listed, it has received no changes.
