'''Power of Alchemy''' (Japanese: '''かがくのちから''' ''Power of Chemistry'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation VII]]. It is the [[signature Ability]] of Alolan {{p|Grimer}} and Alolan {{p|Muk}} and is exclusively obtained as a [[Hidden Ability]].

==Effect==
{{incomplete|2=Can this ability gain Zen Mode, Multitype, RKS System, Imposter, Flower Gift, Illusion, Schooling, or Shields Down?}}
===In battle===
When an allied Pokémon faints in battle, a Pokémon with Power of Alchemy as its Ability will gain the fainted Pokémon's Ability in place of its own. When this happens, the new Ability activates immediately (as if the Pokémon had just entered the battle). This Ability will activate even if the user causes the ally to faint or the ally faints due to its own move.

Power of Alchemy will not activate if its ally had the Ability {{a|Wonder Guard}} or {{a|Stance Change}}. <!-- need to test other "locked" abilities. Schooling maybe? -->

===Outside of battle===
It is unknown if Power of Alchemy has effect outside of battle.
