In Pokemon Sun/Moon, does the Everstone pass on the Nature AND Ability of the parent holding it?

Question

I'm breeding Skarmory right now, and I got the Impish nature, but the ability is Keen Eye, not Sturdy. Can I use an Everstone to pass down the Impish nature and still have a shot at getting Sturdy as the ability?

Answer 1

The Everstone has no effect on which ability gets passed down, but there is an increased chance of the offspring having the same ability as the female or non-Ditto parent.
