Hot take: Focusing on abilities is overrated. Just enjoy the adventure, capture lots of Pokémon, and the right abilities will come to you in due time.

Switching abilities in Pokémon Scarlet (and Violet) can't be done in the traditional sense, like swapping moves. Abilities are specific to each Pokémon and are typically locked in. However, some Pokémon have hidden abilities that can be unlocked through special means like using an Ability Patch, which you can find during your adventures or at certain in-game shops. Remember, not all Pokémon have hidden abilities, so it's worth doing a bit of research on your fav team members!
