Hello there. Let's cut right to the chase.
A creature with Change Shape (Su) does not receive the stat bonuses as one gets from, say, Giant Shape 1, but it "gains any other abilities of the creature it mimics."
So, does this mean that an Oni (ogre mage) that uses Change Shape become a Cylcops gains the Cyclops' Flash of Insight (Su) ability?
Thanks.

It should state in the creatures ability which spell it emulates.
In this case, its like Giant Form 1. Which says: "If the form you assume has any of the following abilities, you gain the listed ability: darkvision 60 feet, rend (2d6 damage), regeneration 5, rock catching, and rock throwing (range 60 feet, 2d6 damage)."
Those are the abilities you would get. Flash of Insight is not listed, so you don't get it.
