    Well I would learn Heat wave too to survive evrything is colder also it isn't fire it's just heat in a wave form there is no fire in it's animation so the firction+wing idea kinda makes sense.

    It's almost as ridiculous as Ninetails creating an Ominous Wind o_O. Let's flap our tails to create wind...but..do it ominously?

    Ninetales has always been the closest thing to a Ghost/Fire type pokemon so I think it fit s her.

    I still think Crobat + Heat Wave is entirely stupid.

    The little kids it scares at night scream with such intensity it gets mad, causing a wave of heat to emit from the mouth... burning the little childr-- I mean... oh yeah, of course. |D Seriously dude, it's Pocket Monsters, don't try to make logic out of it. Manatric (spelling <<) had Overheat, no-one really complained with that as far as I know.

    Seriously, by far Bullet Punch Scizor. :F And Outraging Salamence and Ice Punch Lucario say hi! o/ This will bring some much needed competitive creativity to the forefront. =D

    Stupid Salamence shouldn't have Ominous Wind either.
    Or Togekiss, what the heck is Ominous about a giant lovable fatball?

    But I agree, this makes battling more fun!

    What's the point in complaining or making sense out of Pocket Monsters? XD I mean c'mon AJ, it's not that big of a deal. And Togekiss has a dark side, a very very dark side. ...hohoho, hax.

    Tutors do what? Teach the abilities they have mastered and transfer it to a Pocket Monster. You wouldn't know 2+2 if your teacher didn't teach you, so why can't an imaginary creature learn? That's how I think of it. Although some are level up, so you could imagine that in other ways, use your imagination. XD Frankly, I find it all funny, it's not like a "HAHA SO STUPID IT'S FUNNY" I just like seeing some cool moves on some different Pocket Monsters. They're mixing things up a bit, and I really like that.

    Moltres and Zapdos were at the bar one night?

    wait....that list can't be complete, can it? o.o

    I was certain I'd be able to teach Thunderpunch to my Metagross without breeding for one in Emerald....

    Though Outraging Snorlax will be awesome to see. XDD

    Actually, that's a fantastic point, I never thought of it that way. Electricity can create fire, so why not? Haha. Well said, Kittyipawd.

    Anywho, on competitive discussion. I really like these changes, it might change some tier status, but it'll definitely change some things, how we play what etc. Puts more of an emphasis on predicting correctly just like this metagame has changed to, instead of the simple "counter" anymore. Bye bye 100% Lucario counter. XD I can't wait to play this metagame with all these changes.

    Speaking of the Metagame.
    I believe with the introduction of Magnet Rise on Luxray, it will be put into BL.

    Platinum should definitely shake some things up Metagame-wise....I think it'll be very interesting.

    Togekiss has shadow ball already, so I'd say it's pretty ominous =O
