Question

Whats the point of the ability mummy?

?????

Answer 1

Mummy helps disable other abilities. Weather abilities and speed boost become negated when they attack a pokemon with mummy. But the fun doesn't stop there. Since they now have mummy, it can spread to other pokemon the same way they got it. Think of it as a crippling virus.

Like Pokerus that kills your pokemon

---

Not quite. I mean that the ability spreads to several other pokemon, so even if you manage to defeat a pokemon with the ability, it's still there to bite you.

Also, the pokerus doesn't kill your pokemon. In fact it's very beneficial and useful for your pokemon.

I know I actually meant like if pokerus DID kill your pokemon.

Answer 2

Chance to cancel foe´s ability? It´s like Gastro Acid or Worry Seed or properly used Entertainment

Same thing with Cofagrigus and Slaking. Slaking loses Truant and gets Mummy, which is really useful since Slaking is really powerful.
