    To give an idea of just how insane Thousand Arrows is, Zygarde went from a one-note nonpresence in OU to an overwhelming threat with a seemingly endless number of sets it could run. Literally the ONLY move it 100% needed was Thousand Arrows; the rest of its slots were customizable.
    Honestly I'd personally say Thousand Arrows is probably just the #1 most broken signature move ever made, even with moves like Rage Fist and Population Bomb, just because of the insane consistency and immediacy it possesses while still having a crazy effect on top of it.

      Thousand Arrows singlehandedly pushed Zygarde from UUBL in Gen 6, and even UU or RU in the XY era iirc, to straight up banned in Gen 7 despite that gen's power creep.
      It already had things like E-Speed, Coil, DDance, Glare, etc beforehand. But Thousand Arrows let it go from being walled by every Flying type and Levitate mon ever to "give me your Skarmory."

    No Retreat can actually be used multiple times. If you use a move like Jaw Lock beforehand, you can then use No Retreat multiple times. Thankfully only Smeargle has both moves.

    Did bro just forget about Bloodmoon on an already strong pokemon who's ability is basically buffed Scrappy, making no opponent immune to it? Sure, you can't use it twice in a row, but that's what Protect and Calm Mind are for.

    • @TrixterTheFemboy
      @TrixterTheFemboy 2 месяца назад +6

      Blood Moon is only 140 base power, compared to the effective 300 of Population Bomb. I could be wrong about this, but with Maushold's move being slightly more than double the power of Blursaluna's, with it having slightly more than half its relevant attacking stat(75 atk to 135 spatk), it still outdamages it. Not to mention it being multi-hit to bypass substitute and sash/sturdy, and being usable multiple times in a row.

    In gen 7, Xerneas can use Fairium Z with Geomancy. Sure it can't execute it in 1 turn like with Power Herb, but it gives +1 to speed and offensive/defensive stats on the 1st turn, which helps it survive easier.

    I'm surprised Teleport didn't get a mention at all. It began as signature move of the Abra line, and was widely distributed over the generations afterwards. It also didn't see any competitive usage until Gen 8s' buff to it. However, the move received a bigger glow-up than Leech Life. So much so that in Gen 9 (up until DLC 2), it was only learned by the Ralts lines and was effectively a signature move. A move so strong it became a signature move. I'd say that deserves a mention.

Imagine your going to get outsped- you can block, then outspeed next turn. And the fact it can be used every other turn, this move can be huge for setting up your team or hindering foes.

    Here's my list. It's similar to yours, but there are a few differences.
    Normal: Population Bomb
    Water: Fishious Rend
    Fire: V-create (Pyro Ball is the other main contender).
    Grass: Ivy Cudgel (Runner-ups are Seed Flare and Matcha Gotcha).
    Electric: Bolt Beak (Thunderclap and Electro Drift are runner-ups).
    Psychic: Psystrike (It's between this, Photon Geyser and
    Flying: Oblivion Wing (It was between this and Aeroblast).
    Fighting: Collision Course
    Bug: Attack/Defend/Heal Order (Not really any competition here).
    Dark: Ceaseless Edge
    Rock: Salt Cure
    Steel: Double Iron Bash (Shame Iron Crown doesn't get Sharpness, 'cus that would put Tachyon Cutter in the competition. Behemoth Blade is also noteworthy.)
    Fairy: Geomancy
    Dragon: Dragon Energy
    Poison: Dire Claw
    Ice: Glacial Lance
    Ghost: Astral Barrage
    Ground: Thousand Arrows
    Here are the reasonings for my divergences...
    Grass: Ivy Cudgel is way more reliable on Ogerpon than Seed Flare is on non-Sky Shaymin (who was banned more for its Air Slash antics anyway). Even then, Seed Flare would take second if you discount Ivy Cudgel due to its variable types, as Matcha Gotcha is far more threatening than Shaymin's Seed Flare (except as Shaymin-Sky), being a combination of Scald and Giga Drain, with only a slight loss in accuracy as the only drawback (and I know how you feel about Scald).
    Fighting: Koraidon is disgustingly strong and this effectively causing its super-effective hits to do 2.5x damage instead, further boosted by Orichalcum Pulse, make this one a no brainer, even for as potentially powerful as Victory Dance is.
    Dragon: Clangorous Soul is strong, for sure, but I find Regidrago's more instantly damage dealing move to be better, especially since Kommo-O sacrifices its own HP to use CS. It's that health-sacrifice that also prevents Fillet Away from being being mentioned.
    Ghost: Rage Fist is contingent on Annilhilape actually surviving hits which while yes, it is bulky, Calyrex-Shadow is out-and-out broken as hell and Astral Barrage is a huge part of that- it wouldn't be anywhere near as threatening if it had to rely on Shadow Ball.

    I think Psycho Boost is another strong contender for the Psychic-type. Draco Meteor, Leaf Storm, Overheat, and Fleur Cannon are already elite moves despite their drawbacks, and Psycho Boost is currently the only Sp. Atk drop recoil move to not get nerfed from 140 to 130 BP going into Gen 6. Even the meager Deo-S can still deal solid damage with this move
    Dragon is another with strong runner ups, I don't think Clangorous Soul is the best due to its bit of recoil. Dragon Energy is an incredibly menacing move. 150 BP with no immediate drawback is always a recipe for success, and switching into this move is indeed quite tricky without a Fairy-type. I think Fickle Beam is another strong contender for Dragon. A move useful enough that Hydrapple sometimes forgoes Draco Meteor, which is pretty rare among special Dragons. 30% chance for a 160 BP nuke is pretty decent odds, and the move's average base power is 102, eclipsing Dynamax Cannon and Spacial Rend. If Hydrapple was any faster, you'd hear so many complaints about this move.

    I understand where you're coming from with Seed Flare, but I would say Flower Trick is the far better move because it always crits. Yes Seed Flare does more damage and lowers sp. defence, but the mechanics of crits make it more valuable. Crits ignore all stat changes. It doesn't care if your pokemon has minus six attack while the opponent has plus six defense, it's still dealing maximum damage. Being able to output its maximum damage under any and all conditions makes Flower Trick the only attack of its kind, and insane given its base power.

      @yamummyyummy4785 Месяц назад

      @@Hyperneosonic97 i'd say that because ivy cudgel has more base power, is more accurate and has an increased chance to crit that it is better than matcha gotcha.
      matcha gotcha is a good spread move, don't get me wrong. especially with the passive health regen and chance to burn. but it just doesn't sweep through teams live ivy cudgel does because it just misses too much, and the burn status doesn't make too much of a difference against special attackers.
      grass attacks are resisted by a lot of types as well, so more often than not a grass spread move is going to be resisted by one of the opponent's pokemon on their side of the field. so not only are you not doing much damage to the pokemon that resists matcha gotcha, but you're actually losing 25% of your damage against the other pokemon that you're actually trying to hit, because spread moves do less damage when they hit multiple targets.
      it also helps that ivy cudgel can change types depending on your ogerpon mask, giving you more coverage than just grass attacks.

    • @Hyperneosonic97
      @Hyperneosonic97 Месяц назад

      @@yamummyyummy4785 Imho the thing is though is that much of Ivy Cudgel's utility is _because_ it changes types: It is simultaneously a grass-type move, a water-type move, a fire-type move and a rock-type move- Ogerpon's mask forms wouldn't NEARLY be as good (especially Hearthflame) without Ivy Cudgel switching types. So similarly to Judgement, Multi-Attack and Tera Starstorm, can we really count it?
      If we discount Ivy Cudgel because it changes type, Matcha Gotcha does win out.
