Abomination power-up has a bug
I had abomination enter the battlefield and paid the power up ability cost. Opponent gave his creature I hexproof to fizzle that part of the ability, but it did not give me my +1/+1 counter too. With the the card is read even if I don't fight I should still get the counter.

The +1/+1 counters are part of the abilty's effect. Since the ability's only target was illegal by the time it resolved, as per the rules NONE of its effects happened. If you had selected zero targets, then the ability would not have had a target to become illegal and would have resolved regardless. But since you did select a target, the rules for targeted spells and abilities applied.
