question regarding hidden abilities IF they are ever added

[Nibero]

will i be able to use a ability pill to get the hidden ability of a pokemon?

i just bred a dragonite to find out Multiscale is a HA and i was pretty dissapointed, so im wondering if it is implemented if i will be able to get it on the currently existing dragonite i have, or if i have to start all over from scratch? ( spend a good 2 weeks fishing and harvesting leppa's to raise the funds + 31's i need)

 

if i have to start over from scratch then i can at least sell the dragonite i currently build and use that money to fund it in the future, but it would sure as hell be nice if there is a method to simply switch over to the hidden ability. with for example BP,

 

also noticed that the battle frontier has HA pokemon so i cant help but wonder why we have no access to something that is technically already there?

hidden abilities wont be accessible via ability pills, at least that was the last statement of devs. but thats iirc over a year ago

I still wish somehow they open their eyes, and realize that this would be a good thing, instead of making us grind again in this super fun and interactive game.

kinda depends, economywise it probably wouldnt be too bad - however i understand that nobody wants to grind a shitton again to update their comps

exactly , im not re-breeding everything i have, at that point id probably get burned out, 

 

still what im mostly wondering about is , IF i can see these abilities functioning inside the battle frontier, WHY do we not have access to them? , its already ingame 0.0 , i admit im not fully up to date with dev reasoning but im sure as hell curious about the reasoning on that one...

 

economy wise, i wouldnt mind if such a item costed 500 RP. , i would actually buy that and since 500RP coupons are a thing its grindable by others too who learned the art of making pokedollars
