If a Pokémon with Mold Breaker forces a Pokémon to switch in with a move like {{m|Roar}} or {{m|Dragon Tail}}, ignorable Abilities are ignored when applying [[entry hazard]]s. For example, Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}} will be affected by {{m|Spikes}} and {{m|Toxic Spikes}} (unless it is also [[grounded|ungrounded]] for other reasons); if a {{type|Poison}} Pokémon with Levitate is switched in this way, it will remove Toxic Spikes from its side of the field (unless it is also ungrounded for other reasons). | If a Pokémon with Mold Breaker forces a Pokémon to switch in with a move like {{m|Roar}} or {{m|Dragon Tail}}, ignorable Abilities are ignored when applying [[entry hazard]]s.

When a Pokémon with Mold Breaker uses a move, even the effects of allies' Abilities (notably {{a|Flower Gift}}, {{a|Sweet Veil}}, {{a|Aroma Veil}} and {{a|Flower Veil}}) are ignored for the duration of that move. As such, if the move of a Pokémon with Mold Breaker triggers an Ability (such as {{a|Gooey}} or {{a|Cursed Body}}) or item (such as [[Destiny Knot]]), the Pokémon with Mold Breaker will not be protected by its allies' Abilities; likewise, if a Destiny Knot held by a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is activated during the use of its own move (such as in response to the target's {{a|Cute Charm}}), that target will not be protected by its allies' Aroma Veil. This also means that a Pokémon with Mold Breaker will not gain {{stat|Attack}} due to an ally's Flower Gift. | When a Pokémon with Mold Breaker uses a move, even the effects of allies' Abilities (notably {{a|Flower Gift}}, {{a|Sweet Veil}}, {{a|Aroma Veil}} and {{a|Flower Veil}}) are ignored for the duration of that move.
