Changing abilities in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet isn't as straightforward as it might seem, but it's definitely doable! You'll need an item called the Ability Patch, which can be pretty rare. Once you've got your hands on one, just use it on the Pokemon whose ability you wish to change. This will switch their current ability to their Hidden Ability if they have one. Just a heads up, these patches aren't easy to come by, so use them wisely!

Nope, can't just change abilities whenever you feel like it. You need an Ability Patch, which is super rare. So, good luck with that!

I managed to change my Pikachu's ability using an Ability Patch. It was a game changer! Found the patch after hours of grinding, but it was totally worth it for my dream team. Just keep at it, and you'll find one too.
