How about a move in which causes Freezing without making any damage? Like what Sleep Power does?

Now for a name... what can I think about... hm... oh I know!

Frost Breath would be good name for the move. :3

I would like for there to be a new ground move stronger than Earthquake.
Also I'll like to see Ground, Kyogre, and Rayquaza gain moves special to them much like Mewtwo got a move last gen.

Only problem is you'd need to have even attack and special attack on the Pokemon attacking with this, and prediction would... definitely help. XD;

Oh, I meant that the attack uses the user's special attack, but it either hits the defense or special defense of the opponent, whichever stat is weaker. What I mean by the (or physical) part is that this move might use the user's physical attack stat since I haven't really thought on what it should be, but for now, it uses the user's special stat.

Oh riight, I see.

Nah that'd be too strong imo. 100 BP is pretty strong honestly for a move that common/useful. :x I think I'd be okay with just EQ imo. Maybe better steel idk.

We are long Due for a strong Dark type attack. We don't have a single Attack which has even 100 Base power ! Fling can do some damage but uses up the Item slot. I would love an EQ variant of Dark.

I don't mind Crunch really, given that it can lower defence...

I mean there's Foul Play, but ya. Even so, a stronger dark type move in NU would literally be quite terrible for psychic types. ;( So for competitive reasons I'm not really a fan of a stronger dark move. :x

But c'mon, lots of other types have 100+ power moves, so why can't Dark? Maybe an idea to keep NU balanced is only give it to the stronger Dark types like Darkrai, not that he needs any more moves haha.

Yeah, we need more strong Dark-type moves. I can only remember Dark Pulse and Crunch off the top of my head.

I'm also sure we're getting more elemental Hyper Beams and Quick Attacks.

Dark, and Ghost (not legend exclusive) need moves higher than 80 badly. Also I'll like to see a stat boosting move for those types like how Bug has Quiver Dance and Dragon has Dragon Dance, Steel has Automation, and Rock Rock polish.

Yes I did lol.
Now I want a physical version of Nasty plot. Also a better stat booster for electric than Charge...or maybe change Charge to up defense as well.

There's already Swords Dance. Not everything can use it, but still, it's something. Plus there's Hone Claws and Dragon Dance.

Also idt we'll get more Quick Attack type moves, I think the ones we have are already balanced-ish.

Only reason I wouldn't want a Raw 100+ BP attack for Dark attacks is, Dark attacks are underhanded tactics. They typically have a higher chance Secondary effect than other attacks. Some of the more lethal Dark Attacks double in power after specific requirements are met, usually this pushes the attack itself over 100 BP.

Dark Types don't need 100BP because of their nasty secondary effects. I would like more Dark Attacks similar to Punishment and Foul Play though. Maybe a more solid version of Beat Up as well.

I would love them to update Beat up again.
A fire type quick attack would be cool, it'll eliminate those annoying Scyzor's. They could give the move to Flareon too to give it a little something to make it more useful.
Also some special versions of quick attack would be nice.

Yeah, a fire type quick attack would ruin scizors, ferrothorns and obamas.. Ruining dr status from ou to maybe bl or uu?

We could expand Quick Attack clones for different types, but I can't think of a good name for the Electric type version.
