Favorite non-damaging, non-healing move
this could range from weather moves to status effecting or stat raising/lowering only moves... any move that doesn't do damage or heal damage or status ailments. what is your favorite of those type of moves...
mine is "Attract"... |
Protect. Combine that with toxic and a bunch of defense boosts.
Why I love vaporeon so much |
Tail Glow. It's a pity almost nothing learns it.
|
I agree with Tail Glow, more Pokemon should learn it. Anyway, I don't think I have an absolute favorite one of these moves. I do really like Calm Mind, Quiver Dance, and Attract though. idk if Attract counts since attraction could be seen as a status ailment, but oh well!
|
Toxix ftw everybody toxic is the bwst
|
Toxic would probably have to be my favorite non-attack/healing move. The fact that it is one of the best status inflicting moves and can be used by virtually every Pokemon makes it a truly versatile move.
|
Quiver Dance and Shell Smash. They're pretty much the ultimate setup moves, IMO.
|
Spore, because it's just overpowered in my opinion. though this is countered by the fact that only very few Pokemon are able to learn it. (Man am I glad one of my favorites learns it. XD)
Swords Dance, I like most stat increasing moves, but Swords Dance is the one I've used the most. (Not to mention Zangoose learns it at a ridiculously low level.) |
Protect because it annoys the opponent
|
But the more successful it is the less protect works and then BAM! You're dead xD
Mine is Swords Dance, since it super boosts! IMO xD |
swords dance or toxic I really love them both
|
I would have to say that Quiver Dance is one of my favourite moves. My Lilligant learned it right before Clay's gym on my White version.
...many lives were lost in that mine that day... |
Swagger. It has such a wide distribution, and I enjoy confusing opponents, :P and its the only way of crippling physical Fire types like Darmanitan and Flareon who are immune to burns.
|
Mirror Move. Hopefully at some point there will be a Fighting bird that can use it.
|
I really love using Swords Dance and Work Up
(Work Up raises attack and special attack of the Pokemon, I love using with my Patrat, right before using Retaliate) |
Shell Smash FTW!
Yeah, Cloyster + Shell smash owns. |
Toxic. On Snorlax. That combination alone creates a near-invincible tank.
|
Mine would have to be Toxic or Leech Seed, I love that combo together. <3
|
Double Team, Toxic, Baton Pass
|
And no one said Stealth Rock yet... o_o; it's probably the most game-changing move since they made it in Diamond/Pearl.
|
I've always been a fan of Bulk Up. Oddly enough, I rarely used it in RSE.
|
I like Toxic and Calm Mind. Toxic is what it is: a slow and deadly killer. Calm Mind works wonders with Psychic-types. I appreciate both the special attack and special defense boosts. It helps a lot in battles. Oh, and Quiver Dance. No one can deny that.
|
Swagger, Toxic & Double Team.
Swagger because it can be a pain both ways, Toxic because it's so easy to Poison the opponent and comes in handy when competitive battling and Double Team because once you've stacked it up it's difficult to be hit. |
Quiver Dance. My Lilligant was so cute using Quiver Dance.
|
Toxic, cos that poison will get so worst and worst every turn.
|
Leech Seed.
I love this move due to the fact that it leeches life and I gain HP, nothing more to say LOL. |
Protect. Useful to any pokemon you give to it!!
|
Calm Mind because it raises both Special Attack and Special Defense of my Pokemon in battle.
|
Swords Dance- Stack up 3 of these in a row (and not faint) and you'll be OHKO machine.
|
Swords Dance.
That move helped save my Lucario and Excadrill in Black 2 a lot. The 2+ Attack boost is always handy. And also Nasty Plot, its Special equivalent. |
Agreed with Ravenfreak - Toxic + Leech Seed = gold!! :D
Also love Spore, Parasect's one of my faves and it's a great move :) |
Always a fan of stat boosting moves. So moves like Dragon Dance, Hone Claws, and Quiver Dance are a must have.
Shadow Shed was pretty decent too. |
There's always been something about Safeguard for me. Not sure why, but trainers who use mostly poison types are rendered a load less annoying.
|
A crobat, with this moveset
Mean look, Toxic Confuse ray insert damage inducing attack here. but on its own I have to give props to doubleteam |
Sword dance and stealth rock are my favorites. Sword dance gives you a 2+ attack raise while stealth rock can inflict a lot of damage on the next pokemon your opponent uses (especially if its a dual type and both are weak to rock - takes away half of their health).
|
Curse on Pokemon like Lickilicky. Yes, the Speed sucks but with 4x ATK and DEF, it's just a big, fat killing/stalling machine.
|
Quote:
|
Thunder Wave. Mainly because paralysis lasts much longer than sleep, and still helps to catch pokemon, even if it is slightly less potent.
|
I like protect... wastes some of your opponent's PP.
|
I love the move Substitute. <3 It's pretty versatile since it can be used for a stalling/defensive Pokemon (with Toxic/Leech Seed/Protect etc), or offensive Pokemon with set up moves (like Dragon Dance on Kingdra, or Bulk Up/Calm Mind users). :)
|
Thunder Wave has always been my favorite for this category. It helps me in sticky situations. I can move first and the enemy can't because they are too paralyzed >:D (most of the time anyway)
|
Will-O-Wisp
Its a nice way to give you some nasty damage as well as cripple an attacker. |
I really like nasty plot just for the sound it makes
|
I really like Mean look as it really helps with roaming legends.
also there is forsight which really helped me when fighting ghosts. |
I love how a lot of people said toxic when the OP said non-damaging, non-healing, and non-status ailments XD
Anywho, my fav has to be sand-attack. Lower opponents accuracy? Heck yes! I spam the crap out of that when fighting Red (which is as bad as it sounds XD ), especially when he pulls out snorlax. |
Swords Dance/Nasty Plot make me feel so strong. I hate Attract, especially on the enemies...
|
I really like Cotton Guard and Dragon Dance, but unfortunately, the only only Pokemon that can do both of these is one of the Pokemon I hate the most. (Altaria if you didn't get where I was going with that)
|
Spore is great because it puts the opponent asleep.... 100 % accuracy!
|
Swords Dance/Dragon Dance/Nasty Plot/Cotton Guard.
All really great moves used correctly. |
My favorite non-damaging and non-healing are Swords Dance, Dragon Dance, Quiver Dance, Nasty Plot and Cosmic Power.
They're all boosting move, they're very useful if you use them the right way. |
Sand-Attack: I find this to be REALLLLY useful. But, just as a side note, because I feel I need to say this. I ABSOLUTELY LOATHE the move Attract.
|
I like Dragon Dance a lot, boosting both attack and speed at the same time...awesome :D
