How did my Scolipede get Speed Boost?

Question

My Scolipede is not hacked or from the Dream World or from an egg. I transferred it from Unova a while ago (like a year ago), and somehow, it has Speed Boost. How is this possible.

Do you remember what ability it had before you transferred it?

It had to have had quick feet

@sumwun, No.

In Generation V, Venipede, Whirlipede, and Scolipede have Quick Feet instead of Speed Boost as their Hidden Ability.

The scollopide you had, had a hidden ability. In gen 5 Scollopides hidden ability is quick feet. In gen 6 however Scollopides hidden ability became Speed Boost. When you sent your gen 5 scollopide to a gen 6/7 game the game updated the scollopide to match the game. That is how the scollopides ability became speed boost
