+as fast (doesn't stack with other such abilities).
+
+Ice Face

+damage and its form changes. At he end of a round in which hail weather started,
+the bearer regains its initial form.

+When bearer is hit by a move that makes contact, both bearer and attacker will
+faint in 3 turns. Does nothing if attacker already has a perish count.

+When bearer causes another Pokémon to faint with a damaging move, bearer gets +1

+than "As One".
+
+As One (Grim)
+Combination of Unnerve and Grim Neigh. Message upon entering battle says it has
+two abilities; other triggers use the name of the appropriate ability rather
+than "As One".

+
+Power Spot
+Boosts the power of moves used by allies by 30%.
+
+Gorilla Tactics
+Boosts bearer's Attack by 50%, but restricts bearer to one move (cf. Choice
+Band). Power boost stacks with Choice Band.
+
+Ice Scales
+Bearer takes half damage from special moves.
+
+Pastel Veil
+The bearer and its allies are immune to poisoning. If bearer is sent into
+battle, cures allies of poisoning.
+
+Unseen Fist
+The bearer's moves will do damage with contact moves even if the target is
+protected from it. (Does this mean it just bypasses the protection?)
+

+If a move/ability tries to lower the bearer's stat(s), the effect is reflected
+back at the causer.
+
+Ripen
+Doubles the effects of the bearer's held berries.
+
+Neutralizing Gas
+Suppresses all other abilities. Once this ability stops applying, triggers all
+abilities that activate when gained (if this happens because bearer switches
+out, abilities trigger before the replacement switches in).
+
+Quick Draw
+Bearer has 30% chance of going first in its priority bracket, regardless of
+Speed. If it does, a message announces it.
+
+Libero
+User changes type to match the move it's about to use (like Protean).
+
+Propellor Tail, Stalwart
+Bearer's moves cannot be redirected.
+
+Mimicry
+The bearer's type changes depending on the terrain. Triggers upon entering
+battle and when terrain changes (and not when bearer's type is changed, e.g.
+with Soak).
+
+Gulp Missile
+After using Surf/Dive, changes the bearer's form depending on its HP. If hit by
+an attack while in one of these forms, damages the attacker and causes an effect
+depending on the form.
