Something needs to be done about Hyper Beam, it was such an iconic energy attack and became a worse move each generation. Hopefully this empowered move stuff in SM will do something about it.

I can feel it in my bones
Supermoves should be customizable and you can teach your Pokemon any move whatsoever.
It can only be used in battle after the other 4 moves have been used.

I unironically use Hyper Beam on Normal-type special attackers.
It feels so right.

So Last Resort that takes an extra move to be activated? I like >>26985417 better.
>>26989423
>this empowered move stuff in SM
what?
>>26989648
5 moves on pokemon status screen in-battle, but only 4 on the main column, implying the fifth move is some special one
Professor studies moves, implying there's a new mechanic related to them the same way sycamore studied megas, elm studied breeding, rowan studying new evolution methods, etc
New features section on website mentions moves more powerful than you've ever seen before while showing a glowing pikachu shooting some powerful looking electric beam from its mouth
It's not exactly a hard thing to deduce.

At this point in time it is just a conjecture based on some info posted on the official website, which teased the new features. One of those features is that the Alola region is home to moves stronger than you've ever seen before, alongside a picture of Pikachu performing a new attack with a somewhat stylish animation. Take that and add that Kukui's research is about moves, and the supposed 5th moveslot seen in the Treehouse gameplay and you have that the new feature will be something like super moves. Now it's a matter of time too see how they will actually be implemented in the game.

I agree, I love "power attacks" with a drawback like Hyper Beam, but HB and it's variations are just too weak right now.
That being said, I had a lot of fun using Hyper Beam Mega Gardevoir in VGC 2015, it got the KO on a lot of things that Hyper Voice couldn't.

Pixilate helped it a lot. I've used it on Mega Garde before and it saved me a couple times.
>>26989968
And that's exactly what I gave him.
