Skill Swap will exchange the abilities of the user and the target. Wonder Guard* and Multitype are the only abilities that cannot be Skill Swapped. In Generation V a message is shown indicating which abilities have been swapped when the move is used.

All move variations of Skill Swap have "swap" in their name.
In Generation III, Skill Swap was able to transfer Shedinja's Wonder Guard, thereby giving a Pokémon immunity to all non-Super Effective moves. For example, if Wonder Guard were Skill Swapped onto a Kingdra, the Kingdra could only be hurt by Dragon-type moves, as that is its only weakness. Skill Swapping Wonder Guard onto a Sableye would result in a Pokémon that could not be hurt directly by any type, because Sableye's Dark/Ghost typing has no weaknesses. Since Generation IV, Skill Swap can no longer transfer Shedinja's Wonder Guard.
Solosis's evolutionary family are the only Pokémon able to learn Skill Swap via leveling up.
