Title: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Insomniac_Armadillo on November 26, 2012, 23:28
I wanted to get an idea of the most popular pokemon moves, but a normal 'whats your favourite' thread sounded super lame. So, the idea is to say your favourite pokemon move, then say a kind/type of move,(i.e. status, physical, dragon, grass, etc.)and the next person has to pick their favourite move of that classification.

My move of choice is scald, and the next move is... (Drumroll)

Bug type!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: The last sheikah on November 27, 2012, 21:03
Struggle Bug is my favourite bug move. It doesn't exactly do much damage, but in doubles it's pretty handy for breaking sash/sturdy, as well as the SpAtk drop, since it hits both targets.

Go! Dragon type!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Sizacu on December 02, 2012, 00:02
Dragon Tail <3 Love the idea of a dragon slapping the opponent with its tail like a pimp and then the other pokemon gets hit so hard the Pokeball calls it back.

Ghost!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Green Apple on December 02, 2012, 00:57
Shadow Force. It's cool, how you disappear, and then attack the other dude. I don't know, I just like it.

How about a status move?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Specstile on December 02, 2012, 12:20
even though i like grass i like ice animations
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Insomniac_Armadillo on December 02, 2012, 22:16
Oh no! Specstile broke the chain. I'll restart it-

Go! Poison type!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Sizacu on December 02, 2012, 22:53
Poison Tail! It's pretty much the same as Dragon Tail hee, but this time the sound effect and animation is a lot more snappier hehe.

Favourite Beam?
[like Ice Beam, Hyper Beam..]
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: The last sheikah on December 02, 2012, 23:03
Simple Beam. The ability to make any Pokémon as derpy as Bibarel is awesome!

Favourite move that Magikarp learns?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Green Apple on December 03, 2012, 12:42
Splash. It's so hopeless that it's epic.

Fire type!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Insomniac_Armadillo on December 03, 2012, 19:59
Incinerate. Because destroying other people's food is too fun to leave out of pokemon.

Continue with...
An ice-type status move!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Green Apple on December 03, 2012, 21:30
Hail, if thats considered status. I like weather moves(not to use, just like the idea of messing with weather).

Water move
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: zorua on December 04, 2012, 08:54
I love hydro pump, combined with Kyogre's drizzle and move-pokemon-same-type-bonus (forgot name :P)....is pretty devastating.
Go! FIGHTING TYPE!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Green Apple on December 05, 2012, 13:32
Close Combat. Even with defense+special defense loss, it's cool. I beaasted everyone on platinum back in the day.

Normall type! Go!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Hahex and Oshawott on December 13, 2012, 21:34
seriously, return is a ridiculously powerful move when the friendship is maxed out. its got like 20pp with a crap ton of base damage, but its a shame that it outclasses basically every single other normal type physical move EVER apart from maybe body slam.

Stat reduction type
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: mogusama on January 17, 2013, 21:10
Dragons Biatch  :tongue2:  ;D

Outrage and Dragon Rush my favorite  :laugh:
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: .~:Sly Foxx:~. on January 18, 2013, 12:53
Oh lord Stat Reduction... Tough call. In early game I used to like Sand Attack a lot, just because when all else failed and you were in a real bind you could try to hax yourself out of the fix. Or if we're including moves that do damage AND stat reduction, hmmm... Crunch was kind of cool in R/S/E.

Favouriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite move used by a starter 'mon? (Vague, I know, but you totally all had a starter with a kickass move at least once...)
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Richard and Blaziken on January 18, 2013, 13:00
Sky Uppercut on Blaziken was amazing in R/S, it was the first time I really saw how good the Fighting type could be. Also Blaze Kick was just cool.

Favorite signature move? (e.g. Hi Jump Kick for Hitmonlee, Leaf Blade for Sceptile, Psystrike for Mewtwo, etc.)
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Grasshole on February 13, 2013, 00:33
Glaciate has pretty epic animation, but it's relatively weak..

Aeroblast is pretty cool too. :tongue2:
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Chandelure on March 07, 2014, 19:52
Flamethrower, because it's strong special damaging Fire type move with 100% accuracy.

And for the poll, my favorite type is Fire.

Next classification: Status affecting moves.
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Spriter on March 07, 2014, 20:46
Hmmm, I'd say Dark Void or Spore.

Favorite status move?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Richard and Blaziken on March 08, 2014, 07:34
Thunder Wave. Even with the slight nerf this generation, Paralyzing an opponent is almost always a huge advantage, both realistically and mentally.

Favorite weather?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: SaRo|Rapidash on March 08, 2014, 09:32
Shadow Sky - mainly because XD was amazing =P

Favourite signature move of an event-exclusive pokemon (V-Create does count, despite the fact Rayquaza AND Victini learn it)
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Wolstenholme on March 08, 2014, 10:33
Seed Flare (Shaymin.) because it's like the only grass one there was. There aren't enough genuinely strong grass attacks. like there's loads for fighting and water and fire and dragon but grass needs some more.

Favourite psychic move?

Inb4 Splash

Favourite Fairy type move?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Richard and Blaziken on March 08, 2014, 15:26
Play Rough is incredibly silly, because it sounds horribly worthless but it on the same level as things like Thunderbolt and Flamethrower, so I quite like that.

Favorite Water type move?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Delicious_Scout on March 08, 2014, 15:32

Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Sizacu on March 09, 2014, 01:43

Favourite move used by Shuppet?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: SirBlaziken on March 09, 2014, 01:48

aqua jet is beauty methinks, cant remember l0l

favorite hm?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Mew King on March 10, 2014, 11:43
Definitely Surf.  It's been the most useful since inception

Favorite move with less than (but not equal to) 60 power
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: OpalRhea on March 12, 2014, 06:14
Aqua Jet, because choice or belly drum azumaril is a beast with it.


Favorite dragon type attacking move?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Richard and Blaziken on March 12, 2014, 10:06
Draco Meteor gives the biggest reward for the smallest risk, especially on a choice Pokemon. I'd say that in OU, Hydreigon uses it the most effectively, if for no other reason than that it is not then immediately trapped and killed by Tyranitar like Latios is.

Favorite sound based attack?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Lion Demon on March 12, 2014, 10:37
Flare Blitz. The thought of tackling in flames is too cool not to think about!
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?

Hyper Voice. With pixelate on Sylveon

Favorite fighting type move?
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Richard and Blaziken on March 12, 2014, 11:02
Close Combat. It saddens me that Blaziken doesn't get it. What Blaziken gets is technically better, but in weighing risk/return against my luck, I can't even use my own favorite Pokemon without every turn being a mild panic attack. To prove my point: In gen 5 the very first time I ever used HJK on Blaziken, I gave him a Wide Lens to boost the accuracy to 99%. It missed the first time. CC gives the power you want with a much lesser side-effect.

Favorite stat-boosting move?

Post by: OpalRhea on March 12, 2014, 11:07

Nasty Plot.  I am a special attacker by nature.  At the same time, I love some of the comics involving it.

Favorite non-damaging normal type move
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Richard and Blaziken on March 15, 2014, 07:11
Recover, or any of its variants. If we're going non-Recovery, though, Lovely Kiss. I've really grown to love Jynx for how useful she was in NU last generation. Shell Smash Gorebyss? No problem.

Either Doom Desire, Sacred Fire, or Dark Void.  They're all amazing and stuff.

Tri Attack.

Post by: SaRo|Rapidash on April 14, 2014, 23:11
Geomancy + Baton Pass - I just like the idea of magically enhancing yourself then passing the magic on xD

Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?

Post by: Delicious_Scout on April 14, 2014, 23:51
Blue Flare.

"HURR DURR I HIT YOU WITH 130 + STAB AND I CAUSE YOU BURN HURR DURR". This can happen, and this is why I like it, because it can. There's also the pesky Sacred Fire, which I don't like that much because it happens.

Doom Desire because Doom desire xD

Favourite move which uses the opposite defence to attack? (I think just Psyshock, Psystrike and Secret sword, but I may be wrong)
Title: Re: Favourite Pokemon Move?
Post by: Mew King on April 15, 2014, 12:54
They're all great moves, but I'd go with Psystrike because it really helped give Mewtwo a solid niche in ubers
