How do the abilities of parent Pokemon affect that of the offspring in HG/SS?
Jul. 4, 2018So I have two questions. First, if I breed a female Skarmory with Sturdy, what are the chances the progeny will have Sturdy and the chances of it having Keen Eye (I would rather have Keen Eye because this is Gen IV and no Sturdy buff yet.)? Second, if I am breeding two Pokémon and they share a common ability (I am breeding a Keen Eye Spearow with it, and the other ability for Skarmory is Keen Eye.), so is there a chance at all that the Spearow can influence the baby to have Keen Eye? Or is it dependent only on the mother?

Before Generation V, the Ability slot that a Pokémon Egg would have when it hatched was left to random chance, resulting in a 50% chance of having either slot.
sourceAlso why are you trying to breed a drill peck Skarmory when fly is stronger?
