ITT: give a pokemon a move it deserves via anatomy, something stated in their pokedex entry, or theme.

Does it still suck?

>Crab Hammer
>>
>>24594391
Still sucks, but a fun niche.
>>
But Parasect isn't a crab and doesn't really have any crab-like features thematically or anything.

Heal Pulse would make more sense.
>>
Mewtwo needs Close Combat.
>>
V-create Blaziken and Darmanitan
>>
>inb4 shell smash blastoise
>inb4 tail glow ampharos
>>
>>24594421
It's literally a soviet Russian hermit crab. And either way it's design is crustacean like enough that it should learn it.
And how would heal pulse even make more sense?
>>
>>24594457
It's actually based on a cicada.
Having pincers doesn't make it a crustacean.

Also, a pokedex entry says that its spores can be used for medicine.
>>
>>24594446
Darmanitan sure, but Blaziken has just a tiny V on its head, i couldn't see it headbutting as an attack.

>>24594447
>Tail glow
>Jap names always take priority for move distribution
>Tail glow means firefly glow
>Fish Manaphy is modeled after is call the "Sea Fire Fly" in japanese

Tail glow will never be given to ampharos as hes not a fire fly.

Beedrill doesn't have a horn, it has stingers. If Beedrill is entitled to get it then so are Drapion, Gliscor and Stingulor
>>
>>24594549
Absol can learn it.
>>
>>24594549
If Escavalier can learn Megahorn because Karrablast has a horn, then I don't see why the same shouldn't apply to Beedrill because Weedle has a horn.

It has big ass pincers and an exoskeleton.

It makes more sense visually than a crawfish learning dragon dance.

Escavalier technically still has a horn.

That 'plume' it has is apparantly solid steel and not feathery so it qualifies.
>>
>>24594496
Honestly I'd rather it get a new move entirely:

Triple Stinger - 50 BP and hits three times with a high crit rate and toxic chance.

A move that is used only by Pokémon with pincers. Likely to get a critical hit.
>>
>>24595011
Just because it's only used by pokemon with pincers doesn't mean every pokemon with pincers can use it.

Not to mention that that description was written when Crabhammer was Krabby/Kingler's signature move.
>>
>>24595036
It can't use that. That's the point of the thread
It has nice pincers and it desperately needs something. That's why op suggested the move.
"The target is hammered with a large pincer. Critical hits land more easily."

Don't lose your time with the underage tripfag. Just ignore/report him.

I just think it's kind of a stretch seeing that Crabhammer's been exclusively distributed to crustaceans.

Also, I think Heal Pulse Parasect would have potential.

I dont get it, that 30% paralyzing chance is pretty appeling, and only 10 less BP.

Volbeat and Illumise have pretty good support movepools and Prankster, so I wanted to make them better.
