There were no known abilities back in the Gold/Silver Pokemon games. Misdreavus's only type-related weaknesses are Dark and Ghost.
Misdreavus is an interesting Support. Don't forget back before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type. Leftovers are always a great recovery option to ensure Misdreavus last longer regaining it's stamina every turn.
