"How every ability could work in PoGo: Meowth-Starmie"

#PokemonGO: If you read my last post at http://ift.tt/2fxAYqh you can skip the intro and go straight to abilities. It's the same as last time.Frequently, when gen 3 is discussed, so are abilities as abilities are integral to the balance of many Pokemon in the gen. But many argue that adding abilities would be way too much as it would require a speed stat, status effects, stat changes, etc. I propose a looser adaptation of every ability. These are my ideas for Pokemon 52-121. There is also the matter of hidden abilities to attend to. In the core series games, HAs were only obtainable through events, breeding, the Entree Forest, Hidden Grottos, Horde Encounters, or SOS battles. I propose the Pokemon from eggs and Raid Bosses have a 10% chance of having an HA. Additionally, Pokemon from nests could have a small chance of having an HA. This fits with the idea of hordes and specific locations. To work, my ability suggestions would require stat changes. I believe this is entirely possible because Ditto already changes its base Attack and Defense but not Stamina when it enters battle, indicating to me that Niantic is perfectly capable of having Pokemon's base stats temporarily change mid-battle. They would also require Pokemon's moves to change based on external factors (not mid-battle) to have different animation times and or base damage. Lastly, it would require that Pokemon with different abilities have their type effectiveness interactions directly modified.Limber: This Pokemon gains +1 resistance to electric attacks.Pickup: Every time this Pokemon finds a candy while buddied, it also finds one random item per km walked since last candy that can be spun from a Pokestop.Technician: This Pokemon gains 25% more energy with its quick moves.Cloud Nine: Negates the effects of Drizzle, Drought, Sand Stream, and Snow Warning affecting the opponent's party.Swift Swim: If in the same gym or party as a Pokemon with Drizzle, its attacks have their animation time and energy gain halved.Vital Spirit: This Pokemon loses motivation at half the usual rate and berries have double the effect on it.Anger Point: When this Pokemon has less than 1/3 of its motivation remaining, its base attack is quadrupled.Defiant: When this Pokemon is knocked out of a gym, it has a 10% chance to get powered up once automatically for free.Justified: When this Pokemon switches in against a dark type, its base attack is increased by 25%.Water Absorb: This Pokemon gains +2 resistances to water.Drizzle: This ability serves only to activate Forecast, Hydration, Rain Dish, and Swift Swim.Synchronize: When this Pokemon is knocked out of a gym, it returns with 20 stardust for each berry it was fed by another trainer.Trace: Copies the ability of the foe it switches in against for the duration of the battle.Steadfast: Every time this Pokemon is hit by an undodged charge move, its base attack increases by 20%.Gluttony: This Pokemon can eat 20 berries at a time.
