==Effect==
Gastro Acid cancels the target's in-battle [[Ability]]. Therefore, the target's Ability will be ignored until it is switched out, even if it {{m|Transform}}s. It does not affect Abilities that only have an effect outside of battle, such as {{a|Illuminate}}. Furthermore, Gastro Acid does not negate Abilities that have an immediate effect at the start of the battle, such as {{a|Drizzle}}, because the Ability will activate before Gastro Acid can even be used. Gastro Acid cannot be used to deactivate the Ability of a [[Plate]]-holding {{p|Arceus}}.
