Trying to get all values in a dict

Question

I'm getting data from PokeAPI but if the atribute has more than one value like abilities and stats I get only the last one.

dic_abi = {} #logic for abilities
for i in lista['abilities']:
    dic_abi = i['ability']['name']

contexto = {
    #"pokemons": dic,
    'ID': lista['id'],
    'Nome': lista['name'],
    'Tipo': lista['types'],
    'Peso': lista['weight'],
    'Altura': lista['height'],
    'Habilidades': dic_abi, #more than one value
    'Estatisticas': lista['stats'] #more than one value
}

JSON that I'm trying to get:

{"abilities":[{"ability":{"name":"static","url":"https://pokeapi.co/api/v2/ability/9/"},"is_hidden":false,"slot":1},{"ability":{"name":"lightning-rod" ........

It's hard to understand what you're trying to achieve. If you want to make a list of abilities' names in lista['abilities'], then you could do list comprehension instead of a for loop

dic_abi = [i['ability']['name'] for i in lista['abilities']]

If instead you want to create a dict with abilities' names as key and the abilities as value (probably that's what you want), then you should to this:

for i in lista['abilities']:
    dic_abi[i['ability']['name']] = i['ability']

or with dict comprehension:

dic_abi = {i['ability']['name']: i['ability'] for i in lista['abilities']}
