Electrify could've had better potential

I guess it's more useful in doubles though

What is this
Ive never heard of this
Its not real

It's only the one move which could shake the meta as we know it. #DiggersbyRising

>>27170740
>>27171042
>>27171174
Does nobody use Seviper? Poison Fang/Poison Tail/Earthquake/Flamethrower served me pretty well beating the Hoenn elite 4.
>>
>>27171161
The only memorable ones are D. Gleam, Moonblast, Play Rough and Draining Kiss. The rest is >>27170783 tier
>>
>>27171200

Rototiller is a gen 6 move though

>>27171052
>Rototiller

What
>>
If they are double battle specific moves or absolute gimmicks, there's a high chance you never heard of them
>>
around ruby and saphire release there was vine whip
don't think any pokemon in that gen learned it or could learn it
>>
>>27171256

Most of those moves are legit in strategy and somewhat common.
>>
>Conversion 2
>Present
>Mist Ball and Luster Purge
>Wring Out

I admit those are mostly signatures but come on.

Vine fucking Whip?
The move used by Ash's Bulbasaur in every goddam episode?
>>
>>27171350

I checked, it up the atk and spe atk of grass grounded pokemon. Cacnea and Cacturne are the only grass types getting it. A lot of ground types do.
>>
>>27171677
Paras and Parasect also get it.
Kind of a niche but neat move.

I didn't even know it existed until I accidentally used it in a Metronome match today
>>
twineedle
>>
>>27170783
i only forgot eerie impulse
ion deluge is also a good candidate because barely no use, inferior electrify

the other are slightly more "memorable"

nuzzle definitely is memorable
taunt-proof thunderwave that only fears rocky helmet and passive damage recoil abilities

magnet flux is the ampharos maymay
works like shit for klingklang tho

parabolic charge is an early level attack like flame wheel and shit, wish it was avaible for more mons tho, like zapdos or even electrode for comfy gameplays

>not playing doubles and triples
It was okay in gen 5 triples with meloetta and other fast mons plus porygon z and porygon 2
it basically lets attack all of your members if at least any of those outspeeds the opponent
especially now that gen 6 has -ate abilities
p-z hits like a truck

>>27171042
it's almost forgettable unless you use crobat
it's basically a 50% toxic that cannot be taunted
not that bad, clearly used on roost versions, the band requires cross poison

>>27171200
mat block is quite common in maison
autotomize was also one of the reasons genesect became op
and reflect type has been a thing since gen 5 starmie shitting on ferrothorn, not latias can use it with some success too
the other moves are definitely shit and plain useless in doubles too

>>27171256
klefki and smeargle in vgc are common crafty shield abusers, same for fairy lock
rage powder has been cancer since the beginning of gen 5 as well, also psycho shift flame orb clefable in gen 5 and sigilyph were common as fuck, cresselia also used to run this set in vgc

>>27171284
>forgetting beat up and soak
>forgetting skill weavile and terrakion strats
>forgetting stab disabler soak

the rest are all trash except night daze (risky move tho) and aqua tail which is outclassed by those that learn stab waterfall

>>27171668
slurpuff, florges and aromatisse signature abilities and moves are the absolute garbage
even in the meta they were meant to be somehow useful
>>
>>27171644
The ONLY moves in that list you can say that for are Rage Powder and Psycho Shift
>>
>>27172189
You act like Round was actually a viable strategy in any gen at any point between Gens 5 and 6. Just because it works as the gimmick it's trying to be doesn't make it good or mean people should know about it. 100% Critdra is a thing that works too, but nobody uses it because it's a gimmick.
>>
>>27172339
Round was actually viable, less viable in the official formats but fanmade metas had Deoxys-S and like at least 2 scarf or fast mons including Meloetta.

It can effectively remove from 1 to 2 targets at once in one turn considering you will attack first and the base power becomes 120.

It wasn't extemely common but viable as much as weather, especially because said Round teams were able to include Hail teams too, PZ learned Blizzard and the other mons had coverage.
>>
>>27172526
Also Kyurem was a common member for this build too.
But this is it, it was mostly viable in fanmade metas allowing such Pokèmon and Wide Guard wasn't used that much at the time.
>>
Belch and Rage Powder

Belch has fucking base 140 power or some shit, too.

>not having a sweeper bug bite

besides belch is special so not a lot of poison types could use it effectively.
>>
>>27171284
>Night Daze
I didn't forget it for how stupid it was.
You take the one Pokemon that is made for impersonating others, and you give it a move that ONLY IT CAN LEARN.
It isn't even that good either, just a slightly better dark pulse
>>
>>27172670
I remember it because I used to pronounce it like "ayy-sid"
>>
>>27171671
>Vine whip has existed for 6 generations
>only 11 evolution lines get it, one of which is an egg move (Chikorita, of all things)
And it's a shitty 40 BP grass move that doesn't do anything. Given how often the anime uses it, you'd think that it was one of the most common grass moves.
>>
So does Rototiller win most forgotten?
>>
Barrage
Kinesis
>>
>>27171256
>Flower Shield
Crafty Shield
Wat
>>
>>27170740
Glare. Not Leer, not Scary Face, not Mean Look: Glare.
>>
>>27173404
I disagree. I love glare since it's a non electric paralysis.

>>27170740
There's an awful lot of forgetful moves introduced in gen 6 probably cause no one bothered much.
Example: Powder
>>
>>27174106

Powder sounds great conceptually, but I never had a chance to use it
