Favorite non-damaging, non-healing move

I've always been a fan of Bulk Up. Oddly enough, I rarely used it in RSE.
 
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.
 
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.
 
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 :)
 
And no one said Stealth Rock yet... o_o; it's probably the most game-changing move since they made it in Diamond/Pearl.
The amount of change Stealth Rock has caused to the metagame is all the more reason to dislike it. Well, one says 'change' but at this point it's really just a silly status quo of a field condition that only serves to stagnate competitive battling. It's too powerful for a one turn setup, too ubiquitous with the large number of monsters able to learn it, and thus demands that every team be made with consideration for the foe potentially using it (which serves only to narrow the pool of candidates), so it may as well be banned in general competitive play.

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). :)
