I think all of us spot an animation in battle sometimes that we really like, every now and then. What move animations get your attention?
I will never forget the way retaliate looks from Gen 6 onward. It's so dramatic with the background turning red like blood or pure rage. Then what looks like a little movie follows. There's a big, sudden burst of energy, and as the dust clears you see that the retaliating mon charged the opponent and is still slow-mo suspended in mid air, like some samurai who just thrust forward with his sword and cut down his enemy in one move. The background is now a shoji, the wind is blowing and cherry blossom petals fall to the ground in rememberance of your fallen comrade.
I especially like to see retaliate when it's used by a pokemon that looks small, cute, non-threatening etc. I am picturing a video of one of Pimpnite's wifi battles, using an eevee with retaliate to knock out somebody.
