You must work through the Path of Legends storyline to unlock this ability. This is one of the three major Treasure Hunt options you can go through. Although they are options, progressing them is a requirement to unlock certain things, such as the Path of Legends giving your legendary Pokémon a new ability or the Gym Badges giving you access to stronger Pokémon.
