* In Black and White, Blue-Striped Basculin have the same two standard possible Abilities as Red-Striped Basculin—{{a|Reckless}} and {{a|Adaptability}} (and is listed as such in [[Pokédex 3D]]); however, the Blue-Striped Basculin that can be obtained via in-game trade in White has the Ability {{a|Rock Head}}. In Black 2 and White 2, Blue-Striped Basculin's two standard possible Abilities are {{a|Rock Head}} and {{a|Adaptability}}, while Red-Striped Basculin's stay the same (and are listed as such in [[Pokédex 3D Pro]]).

In Black 2 and White 2, wild Blue-Striped Basculin's two standard possible Abilities are {{a|Rock Head}} and {{a|Adaptability}}, while Red-Striped Basculin's stay the same (and are listed as such in [[Pokédex 3D Pro]]). However, Blue-Striped Basculin [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] in Black 2 and White 2 have Reckless and Adaptability as their two standard Abilities. When a Blue-Striped Basculin with Reckless is transferred from [[Generation V]] to [[Generation VI]], its Ability is changed to Rock Head.
** This indicates that Blue-Striped Basculin may have been intended to have Rock Head instead of Reckless in Black and White, but resulted in having the same Ability as Red-Striped Basculin due to an oversight.
** When a Blue-Striped Basculiin with Reckless is transferred from [[Generation V]] to [[Generation VI]] the ability becomes Rock Head.
