Why are dark type moves so good and unique? Why can't other types get good moves?
Also make up a cool unique move for your favorite type, but I doubt it will be as good as a dark move.
>>25583181
butthole: you shit all over the enemy and it lowers accuracy and defense plus making them go back into thier pokeball

Dark is based on edgy shit.
dark type is about fighting dirty, everything they do is unconventional by default

Dark types must be really pragmatic fighters meaning they will do anything to win.
Bite and Crunch means they arent above biting you up.
Pursuit means they will attack you while your trainer tries to call you back
Beat Up is just a gang beating.
Sucker Punch is hitting you before you can execute your attack
Night Slash in japanese is called blade testing meaning they willl slice you with their darkness blade while you are completely offguard.
Knock Off it just bitch slapping the held item away.
Feint Attack is pretending to be dead then sucker hitting the foe.
Foul Play is basically beating the shit out of th foe in a dirty manner.
Payback is petty vengeance.
In a wild pokemon battle the dark types would attack you the moment you turn your back.
My favorite type is fighting and I really juat want Focus Blast changed to be able to hit ghosts types. Wouldn't be too bad if it ignored evasion as well.
We need more special based fighting moves anyways. How about this:
Quiver Palm
Special
BP 65
Acc 100%
Paralyzes the opponent.
I would even concede to that being a 30 or 50% chance for paralysis.
>>25583481
>Foul Play is basically beating the shit out of th foe in a dirty manner.
>>25583481
>Feint Attack is pretending to be dead then sucker hitting the foe.
Nigga you need to check your dictionary
>>25583481
All in all, nigger moves
The aesthetic of dark type just mixes really well with the game's mechanics, is all. It gives the developers an easier time coming up with interesting attacks
Dark type's main aesthetic is "fighting dirty" which usually involves things like acting when the opponent doesn't expect you to, cutting in on the "order", etc. They "break the rules" while still being within the mechanical rules
Foul Play could definitely be a fighting type move, though - the idea of "using your opponent's strenght against them" is very much a cornerstone of many martial arts.
>>25583181
My favorite Type is Psychic, and I'm already pretty satisfied with their status moves. The Rooms, the Screens, all that good stuff.
Here's a new one.
Screen Room
Psychic
Status
100 Acc.
However many PP the other Rooms have.
Sets up both screens for both sides in one turn. Guaranteed to last 5 turns. Add an item that extends that to 8 for all Room moves.
Also, here's an offensive one.
Hitting Yourself
Psychic
Special
20 BP
100% Acc.
10 PP
Makes the opponent hit itself with its higher attack stat and stops their attack. Cannot be used twice in a row or in conjunction with Protect or its variants.
Another
Fate
Psychic
Special
10 PP
Cannot be stopped
Is guaranteed to do a set 10 HP of damage. Cannot be stopped by missing, Protect, Substitute, Dark Type immunity, switching, fainting the user, anything. Once it is selected, the opponent is guaranteed to lose 10 HP that cannot be recovered.
Another!
Patience
Status
100% Acc.
10 PP
The user is granted immunity to Taunt, confusion damage, Attract, Etc.
Again!
Forget
Psychic
Status
100% Acc.
10 PP
Makes the opponent forget its Type and lose STAB
Patience and Fate should be given to Wobbufett. Forget should be Beheeyem's signature move.
>>25583574
Aura Sphere already ignores evasion and accuracy, it's distribution is pretty limited but it exists. It'd be silly if Focus Blast hit Ghost types since there's no real reason for it to.
>>25583574
Force Palm already takes that idea.
>Headlock
>Physical

an opponent is latched on to, damaged taken by your Pokemon is also inflicted upon the "infested" opponent to a lesser percentage even if they are switched out.

Sounds more like a Leech-Seed clone.
>>25585612
I think it is supposed to be more of a destiny bond, If you take damage your opponent does too. Call it fates entwined or something am it would be ghost move.
>>25586254
I just meant the name.
I'd like for fighting types to get some actual combo attacks, i.e. Attack A causes Attack B to do more damage if it hits, which in turn causes Attack C to do more damage, and so on leading into each other smoothly
The closest we have are attack moves that increase stats or increase their own individual attack power
Expunge
Poison Physical (or special? idk)
BP: 50 ACC: 100
The Pokemon drains the toxins out of its target, if the target is poisoned, the attack deals double damage and heals half of the user's health, but also cures the target's poison status.
>>25586369
There's stuff like Charge -> Electric attack or Defense Curl -> Rollout.
We need more like it, though.
>>25586384
There's already a move like that that doesn't heal the target.
>>25586389
yeah but that's status into physical attack, I mean physical attacks that lead into other physical attacks.
charge moves aren't combos no matter how many steps you separate them into, because they only hit once.
>>25586410
Last Resort and Rage come to mind.
Okay hear me out:
Crow/loud crow or something.
Flying type move.
Does almost nothing against normal foes. Maybe lowers a stat or something.
Does a SHITton of damage on sleeping foes, wakes them with a high chance to confuse.
Thoughts?
>>25586452
Also Bide and Fury Cutter
>>25586452
>>25586462
those aren't combo attacks and they don't lead into each other

It's not unfair, but it's still useful when stalling.

Blase Testing refers to Samurai who would roam the streets at night and "test" their new katanas on unsuspecting villagers.

Mental Focus

This can be used on multiple pokemon in doubles or triples.

>>25587490
Sharkbite should be 45 BP, maybe 50.
I love Vaporize, but it should be more accurate and a bit less powerful.
Squalor seems interesting. The others are pretty okay. Also, there's already a move called Assist.

>>25588075
>my god these are all awful
All of them? Patience seems pretty reasonable.
>>25588153
Patience would hardly be viable, most things that would use it are either setup, which thus only get their setup move and a STAB+Coverage or 2 STABs, or something like a resttalker, which ends up even worse
Being immune to confusion damage just isn't useful, nor is immunity to attract.
>>25583181
>Chill Out
Ice, Status move. On the next turn, any secondary effects your attack has are guaranteed to happed. So if you use Chill Out and then Ice beam next turn you freeze them for sure!
Works with other secondary effects just for other potential funny shenanigans.
>>25588168
Also immunity to Taunt. It's just a move to help out guys that want to setup Rocks, Screens, Etc. without being stopped by Taunt.
>Pollution
>10 PP
>Status
>A Poison weather, but instead of summoning new weather, it converts the existing one. Rain becomes Acid Rain, which damages non-Poison types while healing Poison-types. Sun becomes Radiation, which burns all non Poison and Fire types and boosts the Speed of Poison-types. Sandstorm becomes Smog, which poisons all non Poison and Steel types while raising the Special Defense of Poison types. And Hail becomes Black Snow (I would make it Nuclear Winter but that's too edgy for a kids game) which reduces the Attack stat of all non Poison and Ice types and boosts the Attack of all Poison types.
This would be best as an ability, but that's not the point of this thread.
>>25588179
At that point you've lost a critical turn.
If you outspeed the Taunter, the turn would be better spent setting up.
If you don't, Patience is a status move and thus you wouldn't be able to use it.
If your opponent has Taunt and doesn't use it when they see a likely setup then you're facing an idiot and using this doesn't help.
>>25588208
Okay, maybe it's immune to Taunt? I don't know. Tons of moves are worthless, but are flavor moves. It wouldn't be a horrible idea.
>>25583207
Literally just a regular force-switch move
A really simple one but:
>Corrosion
>20 PP
>70 BP
>Super effective against Steel, 10% chance to lower Defense and Speed
Poison has some nice moves like Venom Drench/Venoshock, but they're a bit too situational. I still think any poison afflicting moves should cause Toxic when used by a poison type, and Toxic should have 75-85 accuracy, 100 for Poison types.
>>25588235
Just 1x effective would be enough IMO, like Scrappy in move form. Still shits on Ferrothorn/Mawile nicely.
>>25588267
It's just one move, though. It'd be better as SE.

>>25583929
Fate sound like the most useless shit ever as well as not being unique because there are other guaranteed hit moves and set damage moves
Addding "hits through protect" isn't creative

>>25588330
I like a move like Skeptical. Makes Normal Type moves SE on Dragon/Ghost/Fairy/Psychic for the next few turns.
>>25588351
I was going to say that might be a little overpowered, but since Normal has no advantages I actually think that's fine.
>>25588363
Maybe it makes it NVE on more natural types?
>>25588370
Hmm, that could work, but the most appropriate would be NVE on Steel which it is already not effective against.
I guess just making it not very effective against the four main elemental types (Grass/Fire/Water/Electric) is a fair trade off for being effective against the four supernatural types.
>>25588396
Reasonable enough.
>>25588307
>not being unique because there are other guaranteed hit moves and set damage moves
Yes, and this combines those, you fucking retard. It also takes it a step further, by going through Protect, switches, and all that other stuff. It certainly isn't the best idea, but you're a fucking retard.
>>25588184
The extra effects are a little complex maybe, but I love it. Maybe Black Ice for the last one?
Wasteland
Basically a Poison Terrain, does 1/16th damage per turn to all grounded non-Poison types for 5 turns, Poison type moves do an extra 50% damage, Fairy damage is halved.
Scorched Terrain
Fire type terrain move, lasting 5 turns, reduces physical attacks by 1 stage for grounded pokemon. Fire type moves are boosted by 50%, Grass moves reduced by half. Prevents sleep.

It's not a permanent effect, IT's like Lock On, it goes away next turn. The move is really bad since you'd have to waste every other turn to get it to go off consistently, but would be fun since you get to Freeze stuff more often. Flinching would be pointless, since again, you'd have to use it every other turn.
I mean, how often have you just wanted to surf around Freezing Tentacools and Wingulls for laughs? That's something I wish I could do.

Crystal Lattice
Rock/Special
40 base power
User summons a gem in the air to shoot a laser at their opponent, this gem stays in the air across the battle and another attack is added up to the number of gems, up to a maximum of 5. Can be removed by Defog.
Think Echoed Voice but good. It also makes another take on multi hit moves.
Then we give Diancie or something a hidden ability that summons 2 gems when it enters battle for the first time, so it starts out with 3 hits on a 40 power move, effectively 120.

If used before the opponent uses a recovery move or healing status move, this pokemon and its team receives the effect too.
If it uses Recover or Wish, the pokemon that used Freeloader will receive the effect(your opponent still heals itself/the wish will be successful). If it uses Heal Bell or Aromatherapy, your entire team is affected as well.
This works on heal draining moves like Giga Drain or Drain Punch too, the pokemon takes the damage then receives the healing equal to that the foe got off the attack.

Reforge
Steel, self status
Removes part of current hp (20%?), heals for some slightly lower percent of total hp (maybe 15% in this example) and increases a stat, maybe defense
Or alternatively:
Reforge
Steel, self
Removes any status conditions or stay increase/decreases, damages the user for 1/4 of it's hp, increases ev, att, def, spdef
Witness
Normal
10pp
Status tag move
Using witness on the same turn as a tag partner dies gives you all of their stat buffs (or maybe some other buff)
Awaited
Normal
10pp
Status, self, tag
Essentially a self destruct that activates when you die, does no damage to a tag partner with active witness
Certain moves should get tons of variations.
75 BP, 100 accuracy, 20 PP, increased critical hit chance move with both special and physical versions for all types would be a good start. 95 BP, 100 accuracy, 20 PP moves for special and physical of all types would also be nice.
What other moves should get this treatment?

This seems like a decent thread to ask this. If you get a critical hit on a move with 60 base power used by a Pokemon with Technician, does Technician factor first, then the increased BP is multiplied by 1.5, or does the critical hit factor first, making the move ineligible for the Technician boost?
>>25593730
Also, does the critical hit multiply the increased BP, 90, by 1.5, or just add another 30 BP?
>>25588142
Medium looks good
>>25588142
poltergeist is a little weird but the rest of them are pretty neat senpai
>>25593560
>>25593114
Slash and its new variants should be 60-65 BP, the 95 BP moves should be 85 BP, and the new Take Down and friends should be 105 BP.
>>25593294
Dammit.

Serial Block
Fighting
10pp Status
90 Accuracy, 30 if twice in a row
Works basically like Protect and stuffs, only for physical moves. Moreover, upgrade a random stat between speed, attack and defense for each 2 combo points (see below) the launcher has, and reset this counter to 1.
Serial punch
Fighting
15pp Physical
90 Accuracy, -10 for each use in a row
see (*) for BP
if successful, add 1 combo point to the counter.
Serial kick
Fighting
15pp Physical
90 Accuracy, -10 for each use in a row
see (*) for BP
if successful, add 1 combo point.
Any other move used, or failure, reset the combo counter.
BP is calculated as follow :
80 is the last move was a successful (i.e, actually blocked a physical attack) Serial Block,
15 + BP of last move if it was a successful (actually dealed damage, ect), bounded by 180
60 otherwise.
Basically, it forces you to switch back and forth w/ kick/punch and/or protect and gain bonuses with the more combo you do and the more well executed they are. There is no competitive interst in these attacks, they're just for fun.
Bees Dance
Insect
5pp
Physical
80 acc
100 BP
Attack enemies with a swarm of bees. Can either flinch, poison, decrease speed or force retreat.
Yes it is OP, but no insect moves are.
White Rapids
Water
60 BP, Special
Always results in a critical hit. Given to Kingdra, Octillery, and a few other mons.
>>25595115
>Insect
>>25595089
This is good. I like this.
>>25595089
Maybe make them 100 accuracy for the first move, and 95 BP if used after a successful Serial Block. Also, would you say the 15+last move's BP counts the +15 of the last move, if it was the other Serial attack?
Also, what other types could have something like this?
>>25595089
Serial Blast and Serial Sphere as special ones.
I could see Psychic having some, too.
>>25583207
>Lowers stats
>Then switches them out, removing the stat changes
Whats the point
>>25583301
It seems to be more based on "dark aura", which is usually depicted as an energy in Japan, both bodily and mental. Almost like an anti-Chi.
>>25583647
I'd imagine a Fighting type Foul Play would be a counter, using the opponents momentum and throwing them to the floor as they try to attack, Aikido style.
Actual Foul Play is probably "stop hitting yourself hahaha"
Anycase, all in all you're basically spot on about Dark type's theme mechanics.
>>25591042
Mooch
>>25583481
>Bite and Crunch means they arent above biting you up.
Then why aren't Hyper Fang, Super Fang, Bug Bite, Poison Fang, Thunder Fang, Fire Fang, and Ice Fang Dark type moves as well?
Congeal
Poison
20pp
50bp
Slows down oppendent with a 10% of inflicting poison
How would you make Barrier decent and unique?
Hyper Wind
Flying | Status
No Accuracy Check | 5 PP
+1 Priority | Forces opponent's Pokemon to switch out. Deals 25% damage on the user.
>>25598038
Maybe it adds a few turns to any screens that are up.
Leekmerang
Grass/Physical/50 BP/100 Accuracy/15 PP
Hits twice normally, but will hit only once as well as return the item if it has been lost and was a Stick.
Change Bonemerang to this, except it's Ground, returns Thick Club, and hits through Ground immunities.
Leekmerang would be the signature move of Farfetch'd. Got the idea from another guy.
>>25599241
I forgot to mention that it doesn't make contact.
>>25597481
>All the moves except the two normal moves literally start with different types in their name
Hmm I wonder why dipshit.
>>25597410
That's pretty fitting but would Gamefreak put that word in their games?
>>25599382
Mooch isn't a bad word.
>>25595115
Do you mean combees and beedrills?
Do normal bees and other animals exist in the pokemon universe.
>>25599468
Not anymore. Honestly, you shouldn't have asked this question. It'll only attract you-know-who.
Favourite types are poison and grass.
Corrode:
Poison
20PP, 100 acc
60BP special
Hits steel types super-effectively.
Leech tree:
Grass
10 BP, 100 acc
Entry hazard that leech seeds incoming pokemon. Swapping into a grass type clears it away.
>>25599503
>Leech tree:
It'd be better as Leech Bush. I assume Flying types and Levitators would be immune, and maybe Fire types burn it away.
>>25593560
>>25593260
>>25593114
Rollout.
>>25593986
No, Slashes at 80 BP, others at 90, Take Downs at 110.
>>25599392
Yes but I can't see "mooch" in a pokemon game, especially if it's a move's name. It just doesn't fit.
>>25599842
Why not? I don't see an issue.
>>25586369
We also have stockpile and spitup/swallow but I get what you're saying
Defense Curl now ups defense and special defense by one each, as well as doubling Rollout and Ice Ball's power.
Rollout and Ice Ball now increase like this: 40-60-90-135-202.5/80-120-180-270-405; the slash separates default from Defense Curl one.
>>25603170
We need a Defense Curl-like thing for Fury Cutter and friends, too.
Offense Prep- Raises Attack or Special Attack based on the moves whether there are more Special or Physical moves in the Pokemon's moveset. Also raises Critical Hit chance by one and doubles Fury Cutter's power.
Quake Punch
65BP, 100% accuracy
Fighting type knock-off. Given to Toxicroak exclusively.
Bu
Poison types are supposed to be the crippling type, so it needs more moves that work with that theme.
>Venom: Toxic variation that overwrites existing status conditions
>Infect: A move similar to Fire Spin, except instead of doing damage each turn, it randomly drops two of the opponent's stats every time the turn ends
>Hurt: A +1 priority move that inverts any damage healed by the opponent this turn
>Smoke Wall: For 5 turns, switching doesn't cure status drops
>>25606622
Could be good.
>>25603267
>Given to Toxicroak exclusively.
Why?
>>25610381
It's a reference to the most underhanded and evil move in TCG
Snap Freeze
Ice/Status
Priority move with 100% chance to freeze but only 60% accuracy.
Conversely get rid of the priority and add a speed reduction to the target.
