Does an animal companion get an ability score point every four HD, or not?

Do you get Hold Breath or amphibious when wildshaping, it seems as if they used to be exceptions?

Does an epic druid get additional elemental wild shape uses? It seems the frequency was changed to allow it, but the rules still say no.

If you take an exalted feat, you can get a celestial animal companion which is an augmented animal, can you cast target animal spells at it? It seems many of these spells were designed with animal companions in mind.

Do you still get feats and skills in elemental wild shape form?

Yes, they do get ability score points and also feats at the regular levels.

Covered

If it has the aquatic subtype you get that and the things that come with. ie you wildshape into a fish, yes you can breathe underwater

no clue

Not sure the actual rule in this. But any reasonable DM would allow it.
Do you still get feats and skills in elemental wild shape form?
Yes and yes

I may not be entirely correct but I think so. Also there has been several other druid posts since the rule changes so check those out as well
