Trace is the ability that allows the User pokemon to copy the opposing pokemon's ability. This is best used with Gardevoir or Alakazam (Kadabra if you can't get access to an in-game trade). this is good trick to use early in-game if you can get your hands on the following Pokemon: Ralts, Abra, or Porygon (Though I'm not sure about Porygon). It's also a really good method to utilize if you're looking to build a competitive team or wanting to find that special specific pokemon with its Hidden Ability. (i.e. in the video I'm looking for a Gible/Gabite with the Rough Skin Hidden Ability, though it's Sand Veil ability has its uses; I personally find it more useful and fun to customize a Garchomp that can not only dish out damage but also to be able to take hits.) this works across any of the main series Pokémon games ( where it has access to Pokémon abilities (this excludes RBYG, GSC, the Let's GO series and Legends Arceus).
