When breeding with non-Hidden Ability females in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, there is an 80% chance that the Ability slot of the female will be passed to the baby. For example, when breeding a female {{p|Venomoth}} with {{a|Shield Dust}}, the resultant {{p|Venonat}} has an 80% chance of having {{a|Compoundeyes}} rather than {{a|Tinted Lens}}. This change does not apply if Ditto is used as either parent. Hidden Ability breeding is same as it is in {{2v2|Black|White}}.
