Uh.....

is there anyway the article can be a bit more specific on Truant and Slow Start? I know Aianto gets Truant by the Dream World as well as befriend, but can it pass that ability to the target? Or by that does it mean it a Pokemon can pass their ability if the target has Truant and Slow Start? If so what about Multitype? Shiramu Kuromu 14:36, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

A Pokémon using befriend can pass its ability to any Pokémon except those with truant or multiype, so yes Aianto can pass its truant ability. Pikiwyn talk 15:47, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

The picture...

I don't think the picture is very good... It doesn't really show much... - unsigned comment from Pokemoninfo (talkcontribs)

Wonder Guard?

Does Entrainment work on Shedinja's Wonder Guard? I would think that it doesn't, because Wonder Guard is already impervious to Skill Swap and Mummy. But we should confirm it anyway. --Stratelier 00:06, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

Are there any abilities that Entrainment can't GIVE to a Pokémon?

Entrainment can be Mimicked. Since a lot of Pokémon can learn Mimic via Gen III move tutor this means that a very wide variety of Pokémon with a very wide variety of abilities can wind up able to use Entrainment. Are there any cases where the users ability is incapable of being given to the target? I know that at least in Pokémon Showdown (a simulator) a Mimic Shedinja can share its Wonder Guard.BOOXMOWO (talk) 20:58, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Quote from the article: "It does not work on Pokémon with the Truant, Zen Mode, Multitype, Illusion, Flower Gift, Trace, Imposter or Stance Change Abilities.". ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 21:01, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Substitute

In Gen 7, I used Truant Durant in the Battle Tree. A Ribombee used Substitute on the first turn. I used Entrainment. The move failed for some reason. GettingTiredofRegistery (talk) 05:31, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Correct, Entrainment won't work when a substitute is up (see Substitute (move)#Unaffected moves). Nescientist (talk) 20:31, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
