Your favourite pokemon move
 
As the title says, tell me what move you like the most (from each category), and why?

-Physical: Megahorn, a very highly-damaging attack and its great for neutral damage, hiting hard almost everything on its way.
-Special: Draco Meteor, a very powerful attack and i personally like its D/P design.
I dont consider the sp.attack drop something bad.
-Other: Dragon Dance, because i think that boosting Attack and Speed at the same time is something awesome.

Now its your turn!!

DonRoyale October 6th, 2008 10:03 AM

Physical: Earthquake. Everything about it wins, and is totally awesome. :D
Special: Hidden Power. The importance of it on some Pokemon is enough to make some (like myself) use IV calculators. If you need an IV calculator, yeah, you're an awesome move.
Other: Swords Dance. Ever since 1st gen, I knew how ridiculously broken SD was. Thank GOD they made it a TM again :D

Sweet Speed October 6th, 2008 10:05 AM

I think Focus Punch is my favourite Pokemon move because I think It's the collest move in the Anime. It's also pretty good in the Game if you land it.

Outlander October 6th, 2008 10:15 AM

my favorite move would probably be shadow force its just plain cool ;)

Opposite Day October 6th, 2008 10:27 AM

I think there was a thread already for this. http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=154784
(If a mod could merge these, that would be nice :) )

UberChomp October 6th, 2008 11:45 AM

Physical: Close Combat (all-out powerful Fighting type move and great, reliable accuracy)
Special: Draco Meteor (love the animation in D/P and PBR, amazingly reliable and strong Dragon type move)
Other: Calm Mind (raises Special Attack and Special Defense, thats very helpful of course and its great overall)

oh, you are wright, but that is for a single move,
This one is for each category (physical, special, other) look in the first post.

Master Jecht October 6th, 2008 1:03 PM

Lance got me to love hyper beam in R/B/Y so i would say that is my favorite move.

ShadowWind October 6th, 2008 1:27 PM

favorite special move most certainly is physcic and my favorite physical move is extremespeed for sure its like quick attack for legendaries =D and the other would be calm mind cause it makes my favorite move physcic even strong =D

Luck October 6th, 2008 1:31 PM

Favorite physical move: Wood hammer, because its about time torterra lobbed logs at pokemon.
Favorite special move:zap cannon, because the animation and side effect is awesome.
Favorite other: either mind reader or spore. Mind reader can make one hit KO's the best moves, and spore is just annoying. 100 accuracy for a sleep move is bad for you.

Nice one, i agree its very annoying.
but I am very helpful sleep talk exists. :)

Archeopterix October 6th, 2008 4:41 PM

Physical - Close Combat
Special - Flamethrower
Other - Hypnosis

I disregard the 'sleep clause'.

Honest October 6th, 2008 4:45 PM

Easy! DArk Void. Itsw awsome and only DArkrai knows it!!!

Hiidoran October 6th, 2008 5:26 PM

Physical: Sacred Fire.
(Well, what Pokémon can learn that move? Exactly my point.)

Special: Tri Attack.
(I'm not really sure why I'm so partial to this particular move. Perhaps it has something to do with it's animation in the second generation games?)

Other: Destiny Bond.
(Who doesn't like a little divine retribution?)

I do believe that other thread was just for animations, wasn't it?
Just throwing that out there...

Sublime October 6th, 2008 5:33 PM

Pysical: Body Slam. cause in-game i would paralyze the enemy almost every time

Special: i gotta agree with Hiidoran on Tri-Attack.

Other: Curse. two different effects? yea, thats awesome

Gymnotide October 6th, 2008 6:14 PM

Physical - COMET PUNCH: SERIOUSLY? LEDIAN 35 Base Attack, GO!! It's stronger than Tackle when it hits twice AND it hits through Substitute, like a pro! Everyone who wants to seriously battle just HAS to check out this move.

Special - RAZOR WIND: Wow! This move may just be better than Comet Punch! It's like serious ownage. I mean, who's gonna stop a rampaging Absol? No one. Razor Wind is so strong that it needs to charge up a turn, but that's okay since anything that is hit by it is BLOWN AWAY (i c wat i did thar). Everyone is like "OH CRAP! RAZOR WIND, GOTTA SWITCH OUT!" But they're all like "Oh isn't Razor Wind a Flying-type move?" But the joke's on them because whatever gets sent out next is hit by a full 80 POWER 2-TURN CHARGE NORMAL ATTACK!!

Other - MUD SPORT: Oh, who doesn't love rolling around in the mud? And OH BOY! Geodude with Mud Sport? That's like 50% reduction on top of the immunity... That's like... 150% reduction on Electric-type attacks! No Pikachu gonna be hurting my Geodude now.

suicidesal October 6th, 2008 6:17 PM

I like leech seed- slowly killing your opponent while improving your own health. Double it with some poision powder and it's such an awesome to kill an opponent

DevinRed October 6th, 2008 6:22 PM

Physical: Earthquake Almost everone on my team knows this move!
Special: Flamethrower Epic win. What more can I say?
Other: Swords dance/ Curse/ Dragon Dance Up! Up! Up!... POW!!!

Opposite Day October 7th, 2008 2:18 AM

Yea, probably. Sorry for the inconvenience caused by my earlier post. Back on the subject! :)

Physical: It's got to be Metal Claw. For some unknown reason.

Special: Tri Attack! :D As mentioned above, in Gen II, it looked way better than it does now, and all those amazing sounds.. *burn burn freeze freeze freeze THUNDERBOLT*. Lovely! :D

Else? Perish Song. A song so sad, that the Pokemon cries themselves to fainting.

Crimson Arcanine October 7th, 2008 4:30 AM

Physical Move Fave: Earthquake, Nice coverage, beautiful power and nice accuracy come together for a fantastic move with strangely enough isn't broken.
Special Move Fave: Aura Sphere. 60 power moves that never miss, good, a 90 power move that never misses with the same PP? Awesome. Oh and did I mention it looks cool too, no matter if its on the DS or playing PBR on the Wii?
Other Move Fave: Nasty Plot. Its just evil, simple as that.:badsmile:

Suzume October 7th, 2008 4:33 AM

I was thinking that there should be a thread like this, but it's a good think someone else started it, because it could've taken some time from me. :P

Physical: Earthquake. I like attacks that do a lot of damage, but have good accuracy and enought PP. Earthquake is just perfect.
Special: Thunderbolt or Psychic, maybe. Thunderbolt gets extra points because it can also paralyze. Both very balanced as well.
Other: I like moves like Bulk Up and Calm Mind that increase two stats at the same time.

♣Gawain♣ October 7th, 2008 6:39 AM

Physical: Earthquake! An attack that never misses it's ground target! Or... Double-edge, an attack thats horrible to you and I.

Special: Ice beam or Blizzard, easily freezes foes!

Other: Curse, a damaging attack for Ghost-types and upgrading type for others.

Ravecat October 7th, 2008 7:27 AM

MUDDY WATER.

Woo! Chocolate Milk Surfin'~!

I only wish it was ground type, instead of water, so it would actually be useful.

Lord Yawgmoth October 7th, 2008 5:28 PM

Physical: Earthquake hits Super on so many things. =3
Special: Psychic FTW. So useful in R/B/Y/G/S/C. (Best attack animation in 2nd gen too.)
Other: Curse, it looks very creepy, and it's so useful for tanks.
