Just use an Ability Capsule if you're not fussy about getting the Hidden Ability. They're easier to get your hands on and do the trick for switching between regular abilities.

I changed my Fuecoco's ability using an Ability Patch I got from a Max Raid Battle. It's definitely worth the grind because it totally changed how my Fuecoco performs in battles. Make sure you save them for your most competitive Pokémon!

You can change your Pokémon's ability in Pokémon Violet by using an Ability Patch or an Ability Capsule. The Ability Capsule switches between a Pokémon's standard abilities, but it can't switch to or from a Hidden Ability. For that, you need an Ability Patch, which is a bit rarer. You can find both items through Max Raid Battles or purchase them at the Delibird Presents shops located in various cities across the Paldea region. Remember, some Pokémon have only one ability, so these items won't work on them.
