Dream World abilities on the main site everyone, go check.
Drought Ninetales, Drizzle Politoed, Speed Boost Blaziken and moooore.
Drought Ninetales... Epic. I wanted to see a Pokemon with Arceus's ability!! Heck...
Weather teams seem to be getting a boost...
Level-up moves on the main site as well. Since Reshiram and Zekrom already know Cross Flame and Cross Thunder when you encounter them, I assume (558) is Cross Flame and (559) is Cross Thunder.
Finally, Rain Dance teams no longer require Rain Dance
The metagame will be even more centered around weather teams.
Also,
Ononokusu(the awesome Axe dragon):Mold Breaker + DD + Base 147 Attack + STAB Outrage
O.o
^ Plus Earthquake, assuming it stays as a TM (with Gen I "classics" such as Hyper Beam, Ice Beam, Solarbeam, Psychic etc remaining, it's quite possible). Screw your Levitate Gengar and Rotom, my axes are too awesome for you to keep hovering.
Also, Chandelar gains Shadow Tag in the Dream World, is a Ghost-type and has a huge SpAtk stat. Imo, no Choice Bander/Scarfer will use a Normal/Fighting-type attack anymore.

Same, i hated all the Pokemon that were revealed at first (the few couple pokes who were revealed) but then they started growing on me.
Also, Hihidaruma could be a bit broken. Boosted Superpower and Flare Blitz(+STAB) coming from 140 Base Attack without fearing stat drops and recoil(thanks to Encourage) is fearful. Not to mention that it will probably get a no recharge giga impact.
Rotom Formes no longer fear pursuit it seems. Some of them have to deal with SR however...
And finally Lucario(Arcanine and Absol as well) are getting Justice Heart, which makes them enter the battle with a +1 boost in every stat Oh god o.O
Fail, I thought Rotom Formes lost the Electric typing
. It's a shame they lose their Fighting/Normal immunities though.
Also, does Justice Heart work like that for sure?
^It seems more probable, still where's the point in encouraging Arcanine to get hit by a Dark type move? It's not like it resists it.
Source for the Justice Heart info was 4chan, I'm actually starting to doupt it. I guess it's a matter of time till we know for sure.

I'm still looking for a 100% list of the new abilities.
I heard that Hyper Beam costs 90.000 Pokedollars because it is usable more than one time. Expensive O.o
Let's hope the other TMs are cheap...
