About the Zero to Hero ability
Zero to Hero is one of 112+ abilities in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Each Pokémon has one active ability at a time, drawn from a list of 1-3 possible abilities per species (the third slot, when present, is the Hidden Ability — only accessible via Tera raids, Mass Outbreaks, or Ability Patch).
Official game text: The Pokémon transforms into its Hero Form when it switches out.
How to get a Pokémon with Zero to Hero
If Zero to Hero is a regular ability (not Hidden Ability), simply catch the Pokémon and it has a 50% chance per slot of having Zero to Hero. You can use an Ability Capsule (50 BP at Chansey Supply) to swap between regular ability slots. If Zero to Hero is the Hidden Ability of one of the 1 Pokémon listed above, you'll need either:
- To catch the Pokémon from a 5-star or 6-star Tera raid
- To use an Ability Patch (consumable from picnic crafting / raid rewards) on a Pokémon that already has Zero to Hero as a regular ability
- To transfer a Pokémon with Hidden Ability via Pokémon HOME from older games
