Can a male HA pokemon pass it's ability ?

[aranzazug]

Before I start out breeding, I have read it can pass down it's HA with a ditto, although, I'm not sure if the ditto needs to have HA as well .. or it can be a normal, limber ditto

Would anyone of you know if it is possible ?

[Sherlock Jolmes]

It can pass its ability down.

It can pass its ability down.

Even with a non-hidden ability ditto ?

[Daisy Puke]

i've heard only females can pass it

[Brokuto]

i've heard only females can pass it

i think they can pass them down its just a lot harder and less likely to happen

It changed in X/Y.
Males now have a small chance of transferring their ability.

Edit:
Lol someone beat me to it.

Yes, it can, but it's something like 20% chance or something, compared to 80% or something for females. The males can pass the hidden ability but they have a higher chance of CHANGING the hidden ability to something else in their offspring.

edit: Percentages are wrong.
If a female Pokémon has a Hidden Ability and is bred, it has a 60% chance of giving that Ability to each of its children. Each of the other Abilities has a 20% chance of being passed down.
Dunno how it's changed in this gen.

I've bred a speed boost torchic from the (male only) event one, so - yep, I can confirm firsthand, male pokemon can pass on hidden abilities.

[Chibi Mako-san]

I've bred several HA eevees with a ditto and a male HA eevee. So yes, but it's a lower chance than the females.

[Feather Kana]

It was changed in Gen VI to the male of having a 20% chance of passing a HA off to a compatible offspring, as well as the females having an 80% chance.

[Luci_Drakor]

I've had it work with both a Rain Dish Blastoise and a Protean Frogadier male so yep they can. :3

Do you perhaps remember what ability that ditto had ?

[Bryagh]

It can, I tested it by breeding my male magician fennekin.

Limber. I didnt have a HA Ditto at the time.

[Drago Milenario]

Males can pass on the ability.

For example, I'm breeding rufflets. All rufflets are male, and it's sure as hell been passing down its ability when paired with a non-HA ditto.
