I'll be signing up for your classes, OreoMaster. Y'know.
The one where you teach me to drain my foe's life essence every time I punch them. <3

 

[OreoMaster]

Yuh I don't understand what you mean.Just try to explain it a bit.

 

[phonastik]

Gymnotide means the Fighting-type attack Drain Punch, which, predictably, drains the foe's HP. Presumably that does not exist in real life.

 

[OreoMaster]

oh ok.Yeah drain punch doesn't exist.

 

[blue]

Scratch & Tackle... obvious reasons.

 

[OreoMaster]

yeah scratch and tackle are normal type attacks so I already mentioned them.

 

[Oryx]

Some of the moves you mentioned probably wouldn't exist:

Sacred Sword - fighting move, but makes no sense to exist in real life. It's not related to actual swords or anything.

The 5 Special Fighting Moves

Bubble - Bubble guns blow bubbles, they don't hurt you. Bubble is an actual attack, so I wouldn't say that this counts.

Chatter - In real life, that wouldn't be an attack, just like Bubble.

Ice Beam - Now you're just stretching.

---

Now on to some moves I think would be able to be replicated irl...

Brave Bird - I'm sure there are birds that charge recklessly, hurting themselves in the process.

Sky Drop - This move was actually based on something a bird in real life does.

Bone Club - Could easily get a strong bone and use it as a club.

Dig - Obvious reasons.

Sand Attack - If you throw sand in someone's eyes, they won't be able to see you well enough to fight.

Inferno - Basically setting something on fire.

Clamp - They say it's nearly impossible to open a clam's mouth...

Scald - Like throwing boiling water on the target.

Avalanche - It's possible to cause avalanches.

There are a few others that I wasn't sure about so I didn't list them. But those are some others that would probably be doable.

 

[OreoMaster]

@ toujours : Yeah I have obviously missed a lot of attacks that already exist.You have mentioned some good ones.
But I still think that Bubble would be equal to bubbles blown by a bubble gun.And chatter the same as a parrot talking.
Firstly I can't think of any way some bubbles would hurt.Bubblebeam,yes,this would hurt.But bubble no.They are just bubbles.Tell me a way they could hurt.And why did you complain about Bubble and not Watergun.I said that watergun would be like a garden hose.A garden hose can't hurt you so watergun wouldn't either.And watergun is stronger than bubble.So bubble wouldn't hurt at all :)

 

[Nideous]

How would you do Hyper Beam IRL?

You forgot a few that I would like to point out.

Mud Sport- just throwing mud up into the air and getting it all over everything.
Water Sport- same thing as above, just with water.
Splash- splish splish?

 

[rocky505]

Draco Meteor- We have meteors that could ran down from the sky and crush us all.

 

[blue]

Swagger, walkin with Swagger.

 

[Vrai]

Dunno how anyone hasn't mentioned Attract yet. ;33

 

[2Cool4Mewtwo]

Many moves can be "realized" in real life, including tackle, scratch, blizzard.... list goes on and on and on and on and on......

 

[Ieyasu]

Almost any Fighting move, Normal move, and of course Nasty Plot. To us, Wood Hammer would be bludgeoning someone with a club/hammer/trunk of wood, and many people have probably used it throughout history.

Block
Self explanatory

Bullet Seed
Pretty easy; throw seeds at someone

Calm Mind
Relaxing the mind, building your strength and energy.

Coil
Snakes can coil. Caterpillars, worms, all things related and can flex their body into a coil.

Copycat
People probably use this one everyday.

Detect / Protect
Preventing yourself from getting hurt.

Encore
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands! Or, applause.

Fake Tears
Pretending to cry.

Gravity
Yup, we all know about that.

Fly
People can fly too. It's called using airplanes! Birds can do it too of course.

Growl
That's an easy one.

Growth
Everything grows through growth in life as their body matures.

Hail
Well, we do have hail don't we?

Helping Hand
Helping someone out.

Hyper Voice / Screech
Yeah, you don't want to experience a high pitch scream.

Twister
It's a twister or also known as a tornado.

Sing
We've got lots who can do that. Some even put you to sleep too!

Smokescreen
Smoke bomb or a rise of dust making it hard to see.

Mist
That exists in the real world too.

Sunny Day
Come to Florida and you'll get a lot of that.

Toxic
Poisonous chemicals.

Trick
I do it all the time.

That's just another few that can be added to the list right there. I know I listed some normal-type moves, but claiming all of them just takes the fun out of it, don't you think? Well, excuse me while I gotta run. <pun intended>

 

[OreoMaster]

yeah good ones.I don't know how I could forget them.

 

[SharpAceX]

The move charge is possible. Charging a battery. ^^

 

[PlatinumDude]

X-Scissor: using a pair of knives, swords or claws and slashing in an X fashion.

The point I'm making is that the Pokemon attack doesn't exist in real life because they're not attacks in real life. And you can get some real pain with a hose if you get a lot of pressure behind it; try putting your thumb over most of the hose and narrowing the hole so you get more water pressure and it can start to hurt. Bubbles will never hurt.
