The Ability Capsule (Japanese: とくせいカプセル Ability Capsule) is a medicine introduced in Generation VI. It changes a Pokémon's Ability. In the core series gamesPrice
EffectBag itemIf used from the Bag, it changes a Pokémon's Ability from one of its standard Abilities to its other standard Ability. It can only be used outside of battle. It is consumed after use. The Ability Capsule can only be used on a Pokémon that belongs to a species that has two standard Abilities. For example, it can be used to change a Pidgey's Ability from Keen Eye to Tangled Feet (or vice versa), but it cannot be used on a Pikachu (whose standard Ability is always Static). It also cannot be used to change a Pokémon to or from its species' Hidden Ability. The Ability Capsule also cannot change the Ability of Zygarde (between Aura Break and Power Construct) or Greninja (between Torrent and Battle Bond). It also cannot change the Ability of Rockruff to or from Own Tempo (but can change Rockruff's Ability between Keen Eye and Vital Spirit). The Ability change is retained even if the Pokémon evolves, and the Ability slot provided by the Ability Capsule is maintained if the evolved form has a different standard Ability. For example, a Lillipup with the Ability Pickup evolves into a Herdier with the Ability Sand Rush, but if Lillipup's Ability is changed to Vital Spirit with an Ability Capsule, it will have the Ability Intimidate after evolution. Held itemFling fails if the user is holding an Ability Capsule. Cram-o-matic

Can you switch a hidden ability?Players will be able to use the Ability Patch to change a Pokémon's Ability to its Hidden Ability (if it has one). This item will not allow a Pokémon to retroactively change its Ability back to a regular Ability, but it's likely that the Ability Capsule that currently exists in the game will be able to do that.
Can Pokémon abilities be changed?A Pokémon's Ability can be changed by one of the following abilities. A changed Ability wears off immediately upon the Pokémon with the changed Ability being switched out, reverting to its original one before the effects of any abilities that activate upon exiting battle occur.
