Jolteon Ability Woes

[Guigui 0]

I'm not sure how ability works but my Jolteon just cannot seem to get Volt Absorb (which IMO is more useful than its dream world ability)

I've tried more than 10 times and am wondering if there is some sort of error which causes it to be unable to get the non-dream world ability O-o)

Are you resetting an egg or hatching new ones? if yer resetting the same egg, stop, its predetermined before it hatches if I remember correctly.

Also in reborn, its ability as an Eevee tells you what its ability as a Jolteon is, so if yer trying the same Eevee with a stone, and not just trying to hatch the other ability Eevee, also stop, as that wont change anything, you need another Eevee.

There was another thread on this, but I'll put it here: Simply, if Eevee has Run Away, then Jolteon will have Volt Absorb. Adaptability will give you Quick Feet, which isn't the best, like you said.
