I think corrosive can work as an ability name since it is a description rather than an action or object. We only have flash fire as far as fire absorbing goes and it doesn't heal you.

Abilities are only used to add immunities. Moves are used to remove them.

 

[Toph]

Berserk Rage Attack is increased, with the chance of a high critical hit ratio, when the user hp is half.

Re: ideas for 5th gen abilities

Unsure
Halves attack and sp. attack and doubles defense and sp. defense. When the Pokemon's HP drops under half, the opposite happens.

Wouldn't it make more sense to flip those around?

I pictured as the Pokemon being unsure whether to attack at first, and then once it gets damaged it becomes angry and attacks.

I suppose that makes sense. It really could work either way.

Whenever this Pokemon uses a grass-type move, its hp rises slightly.

For a lot of grass-types.

For most dark-types.

High Jumper
Moves like Bounce, Fly, and Sky Drop become twice as powerful.

For fighting and flying types, maybe?

For Alakazam, Gardevoir, etc.

Large Lungs
Moves involving the Pokemon's voice have increased accuracy and can break through the ability Soundproof.

Merciful
When this Pokemon gets the enemy down below 1/5 hp, its defense and sp. defense are raised by two stages and the Pokemon is switched out to a random Pokemon on your team.

Uncontrollable
One random stat is raised and one is lowered every turn, and the Pokemon's type changes every turn.

For Pokemon like Mewtwo, Mew, Arceus, and the pixie trio.

Statistical Advantage
This Pokemon reveals a random stat of each enemy Pokemon at the beginning of battle, whether it is sent out first or not.

Depressed
Lowers each stat by one stage in the first turn of battle, then lowers them again every time the Pokemon takes substantial damage.

For something that is extremely powerful.

 

[The Outrage]

telekinesis makes the enemy easier to hit.

Hence "Effect". Notice how a lot of moves have vague descriptors but more in-depth effects that aren't mentioned? Note that one of the effects also make the Pokemon immune to ground attack, as well as immunity to a few entry hazards. It wouldn't be so hard to click the provided link would it? Now note the addition I also gave, that it affects everyone rather than just the enemy? So yes, its Telekinesis' effects but applied to everyone.

 

[hurristat]

Depressed is like an uber version of defeatist

Merciful would get annoying D:

How would stat advantage work?

[TorchicBlaziken]

Re: ideas for 5th gen abilities

Exploder: "Exploding" moves will do double the damage and ignore immunities. Poison-type attacks will also hit Steel-type Pokémon. Would go good on a Fire/Poison bomb Pokémon.
