What's the difference between the abilities "receiver" and "power of alchemy"?

Question

Well, any difference between receiver and power of alchemy? I don't see the point in giving muk (alolan) an ability that does the same thing as another.

Nothing except receiver might only activte during a double of triple battle.

Answer 1

Nothing, but can you really see muk with the abillity receiver? Or passiman with power of alchemy?

Exactly. It's just the names

Kinda yeah.. A cooler hidden ability for alolan muk could have been something that made it adsorb poison type moves for a sp. defense boost
