What would happen if a Pokemon with the ability Libero or Protean used the move Burn Up?

May. 17, 2022



I know that no Pokemon with Libero/Protean can learn Burn Up, but if you, say, hacked the ability Libero onto a Moltres with Burn Up, how would the ability react to the move? Would the Moltres turn into a pure Fire type, and then become typeless due to losing the Fire type from the moves added effect? Would the move also become infinitely re-usable due to Libero turning the Pokemon using Burn Up into a pure Fire type before using the move, or would it not be able to do so?

Once again, I request you don’t question my curiousity.

Moltres would become pure Fire type and then become only ??? type. A non-Fire type Pokemon would fail to use Burn Up. The results were the same with Libero and Protean.
