Checking for a hidden ability in Pokemon Scarlet isn't as straightforward as checking regular stats but there's a way! Once you catch a Pokemon, head over to any Pokemon Center and talk to the NPC at the counter who can check your Pokemon's abilities. They'll be able to tell you if your Pokemon has a hidden ability. Another way, if you're into breeding, is that Pokemon hatched from eggs can sometimes have their hidden ability, which is indicated in their summary screen. So, keep an eye out!

Hot take here: honestly, worrying about hidden abilities is overrated unless you're super into competitive play. Just enjoy the game and the adventure. You'll come across a Pokemon with a hidden ability when you least expect it!

I found my first hidden ability Pokemon totally by accident and it was a game-changer for my team. Best advice? Talk to every NPC and read the summary screens of your Pokemon closely. Sometimes, the game gives you hints about these abilities in the most unexpected places.
