    I find it strange that the anime team only focuses on a few moves and forget to use others altogether! For example, when have we ever seen moves like Baton Pass or Magic Coat used? D:

    Hopefully they make full use of the MANY interesting moves in Pokemon! Post some that you haven't seen and want to see. And for those of you who HAVE seen them, please try to show us the episode! ^_^

    They have shown substitute, in the Shaymin and Giratina movie, shaymin uses substitute to escape Giratina

    • Thunder Bolt.

    Stealth Rock would be awesome to see. I would very much enjoy seeing rocks fly around and smashing into people. Another move would be Return or Frustration.

    • Toxic Spikes, please.

    Don't deny the awesomeness that would be Toxic Spikes in the anime.

    Of course, this post is epic fail if they HAVE used it in the anime.
     

    Samme!

    I'm pretty sure Barry's Empoleon knew Hydro Cannon and I vividly remember seeing it being used.

    If I remember correctly, Stealth Rock was used. Pillars of rocks are stuck onto the floor or something, and when a Pokemon is sent out, the rocks activate and slam at the Pokemon.

    It was... DP015?

    Yes Stealth Rock was used by Roark's Onix
    Um were Tail Whip or other stats reducing moves shown?

    Tail whip was used by Squirtle but it did damage like a tail like whip not lower the opponent's defense.

    I'd like to see Roar of Time and Spacial Rend used, I know Dialga has been in 2 movies and Palkia one and they're both starring in the upcoming movie but still I don't remember seeing these moves

    • I've seen Defense Curl, used by Max's borrowed Azurill/Marill (?) in the Roxanne debut episode.

    That's the only stat-related move I remember.

    Psyduck has used Tail Whip in the biker gang episode, but it looked more like it was supposed to be an attack. Other stat moves like Swords Dance, Screech, Sand Attack and Double Team have been used

    Fissure, Sheer Cold, Horn Drill, Guillotine
    You know the one-hit knockout moves. I'm sure at least one of them have been used before but they're all cool.

    • Okay, I agree with wanting to see new moves in the show, but how do you know they wont turn out suckish? Ever since darkrai came out I had wanted to see dark void used in the anime but when I did it wasn't even remotly cool. Dark void looks better in the game.

    As for a move that I would like to see... well I dont watch pokemon that much so I haven't seen many episodes, so basically I'm saying there is a 99.99% chance that this has been featured... but I want to see extrasensory.

    Stealth Rock was used in DP15, the battle with Hyouta and Shinji.

    Shaymin in Giratina in the Sky Warrior.
