We all know the starter Pokemon have either Overgrow, Blaze, or Torrent as an ability. But what do you think their abilities would be if they were able to have different ones? For example, Feraligatr would have Intimidate because it's scary:demon: and Blastoise would have Shell Armor(duh). Blaziken and Goukazaru would probably have Guts. It'd be cool if Charizard or Typhlosion had Magnet Pull(DIE, Skarmory!:flame: ). What do y'all think?

OK,here's what I think.
Venusaur:003: Venusaur would probably have Chlorophyll or Natural Cure, and maybe Effect Spore.For D/P, there's this ability called Flower Head that is a signature ability(only one Pokemon has it).It changes the Pokemon's form and raises it's stats. Venusaur would probably have it.This other one, Sun Power, decreases a Pokemon's Hp, but increases it's Special Attack IF Sunny Day is in effect(or Drought, for that matter).
Charizard:006: Charizard would be uber if it had Magnet Pull to...you know.(once again, DIE, Skarmory!:flame: :smiliegor ). But it'd probably have Flame Body, Flash Fire, or Magma Armor. Water Absorb FTW. Or Volt Absorb.;)
Blastoise:009: Volt Absorb FTW;) . Seriously, it'd have Rain Dish, Swift Swim, Water Veil, or Shell Armor.

I think Charizard would Intimidate as well. Certainly would make it a lot easier to switch in on Focus Punches. Blaziken might get Early Bird, Limber, or Guts. Typhlosion might get Intimidate, Flash Fire, or Flame Body, although I'd still take Blaze in a battling sense. I definitely think the Treecko line should get Guts, despite being useless on Treecko. Maybe it's just Ash's Sceptile, but that thing never gives up. Charizard should get Illuminate too. Lol. Useless, but I never understood why Charizard and Ampharos couldn't learn Tail Glow -___________-

Ampharos and Charizard don't get Tail Glow because Tail Glow in Japanese is actually called Firefly Light, or something along that line.

On Topic:

Meganium: Probably Chlorophyl
Blastoise: Shell Armor
Blaziken: Early Bird/Guts
Sceptile: No idea, but in the 4rth generation it would probably gain Leaf Guard.
Typhlosion: Flame Body/Flash Fire
Venusaur: Effect Spore/Chlorophyl
Charizard: Intimidate
Feraligatr: Intimidate
Swampert: Damp
Goku: Guts/Generic Fire Type trait
Penguin: Early Bird/Pickup(in first two forms), Early Bird/Sturdy upon evolving to the final form in which Sturdy would replace Pickup.
Dotaitos: Oblivious/Sand Veil?
