Remember that there's a Basculin with Rock Head and Mold Breaker as abilities it cannot get normally. I wonder if Basculin's Hidden Ability will default to Rock Head.
By the way, Chandelure and its kin seems to get Infiltrator as their ability. It's a pity that Shadow Tag isn't the one roaming for free, because that would've been a really awesome ability to use. Still, Infiltrator's got some improvements, from what I heard. It goes through Substitutes, meaning it will be the bane of any Sub-Seeder, and it will pressure a Substitute user because they are not safe at all. I hope that it gets Shadow Tag somewhere along the line.
On other news, there are these new abilities and moves that benefit Grass-types, which I love to hear about. An ability that directly benefit Grass-types is Flower Veil, which makes them unable to get stat reductions, and I hope it includes would-be self-inflicted drops such as Leaf Storm and Superpower. Grassy Terrain is a great field effect that powers up Grass-type moves and provide passive recovery, and if you use Gogoat with Grass Pelt (that's its hidden ability), then it even gets a Defence boost! That's not getting into the two moves that boost Grass-type's stats: Flower Shield and Rototiller. Now all they need is a form of Speed control such as Tailwind or Trick Room. Maybe Grass-types would be hard to use since they have several weaknesses and are resisted by many, but those boosts are very much appreciated!
