    Some attacks took the place of ones really needed - like what インフェルノの津波 said, a 100 or around that base stell attack. Inferno is basically an inferior Flamethrower. It has 50 accuracy. Incinerate, Struggle Bug, Dual Chop (a Dragon type move?) were were additions IMO...

    The new TM list is cool but I don't think anyone would've had a problem with more than 100 TMs... Water Pulse, Focus Punch, Steel Wing, Stealth Rock (replaced by Struggle Bug...), Iron Tail, Roost, Dragon Pulse (replaced by INCINERATE? Come on...), Dark Pulse, man. Those are all gone... and I used a bunch of those, too.

    We've still got Thief (40 power), Embargo, Fling, Pluck (60 power) as TMs
     

    Nameless.

    Leaf Tornado and V-Create are my favorite moves of generation 5. You just can't go wrong with a tornado of leaves that can wreck accuracy and a destructive 180 base power fire move that doesn't miss without an intrusion. V-Create even has a really destructive sound when initiated! It goes like "Dundundundun woosh-BOOOM!!". I love using it just to hear and see that. Leaf Tornado is just fun to watch. Wooshing of leaves, enveloping everything in sight. Mwuhaha! :D

  • Horn Leech is probably a fave'; 75 base ATK, and half of your damage is regained as HP.

    I've fully healed Sawsbuck from 35 to 200HP in two hits from that thing, not counting Leech Seed harhar
    This is so true. I love my Sawsbuck so much because she has this move!

    They removed some of the more powerful TM's due to the fact that they're re-useable. It would make the game incredibly easy if I could teach all of my dragons Dragon Pulse.

    I love the animation for Fusion Bolt. Something about Zekrom jumping up into the air with a blast of electricity is just awesome. :D Idk I like the attack in general too! Just wish it had more PP. :(

  • Sludge Wave is absolutely punishing if used by a Poison-type... really a shame that Trubbish and Garbodor are the only G5 Poison-types that can learn it.

    Scald is pretty nice too... fun to inflict burns with a Simipour, lol.
