When Ditto Transforms, does it take the opponents ability as well?

Question

I've been wondering.

Answer 1

Yes, Imposter and Transform will give you your Opponents ability.

This is why I avoid Using Ditto on Pokemon Like Guts Conkeldurr, As With me most likely not holding a flame orb, He has an extra Attack boost.

Not a good idea to use Ditto against a Shedinja, either...
