Some Pokémon have Pokémon Powers (Charizard at the top of this page has one for example). You can activate it on your turn before your attack as long as your Pokémon is not asleep, confused or paralyzed. Some of them are just helpful (look at Venusaur to your right there.) and some are just outright unfair. Like Mr. Mime's Power. He can reduce any damage to him greater than 30 to 0. If you happen to be playing his weakness, you are fucked. Unless he's asleep, paralyze him or confuse him. Eventually these were eventually separated into PokéBody (passive abilities) and then eventually emerged into Abilities after the games introduced the same concept by that name.
