    three somewhat important things:
    1. No, Galarian Slowking cannot use Chilly Reception and Assault Vest. I managed to miss it during recording somehow and only realized it too late. I added a visual correction when I said it but it's super easy to miss so I also want to mention it here.
    2. this isn't comprehensive, moreso the most interesting moves to me. There were some, like Population Bomb, Surging Strikes, and Rage Fist that I've already talked about so I left out of this video.
    3. this idea was suggested by someone in my livestream chat a bit ago but I don't know who it was so I can't credit them. If it was you, let me know and I will!

    Why they made all the Genie's signature moves 100% accurate for rain only and not a different weather for each is a mystery to me, doesn't rain have enough moves with the same benefit?

      Bleakwind Storm's dex description in both Legends: Arceus and Scarlet/Violet describes it as "Savagely Cold Winds" and in Arceus it could cause Frostbite, it was clearly designed to be a Winter storm attack, why tf doesn't it get perfect accuracy in Snow???
      Clearly it should have been:
      Tornadus - Bleakwind Storm - Snow
      Landorus - Sandsear Storm - Sand
      Thundurus - Wildbolt Storm - Rain
      Enamorus - Springtide Storm - Sun

      In Legends Arceus they all caused status effects, but for some reason they didn’t put Frostbite in SV, so one of them causing freeze would be too broken. Now there’s no consistency and some of them cause stat drops while other cause status effects. They got lazy with carrying these moves over.

      It should activate off of any move, and then give Turt +1 Defense when the trap is being set. It still would be anti-physical, but not be so niche that it you have to always run an extra Fire-type move like Flamethrower alongside it and waste a moveslot. It would also synergize very well with Body Press, giving it a niche of having a somewhat offensively inclined way to boost its Body Presses as opposed to being completely passive with Iron Defense.

    Honestly, while it isn't signature exactly, I'd love to see Topsy-turvy mentioned. Only the Grapploct and Malamar lines get it, and if you use a Focus Sash, one use of the move can completely annihilate Setup Sweepers. I have considered running Malamar on Showdown sometimes because of this.

      I’ve been running it in trick room w caly-I and hisuian goodra.

Definitely takes a lot of support and good positioning, but seeing Draco meteor go brrr is really fun.

    Gigaton Hammer is the funniest thing they’ve put in a pokemon game, with Tinkaton herself at a close second. 160 BP, 100% accurate, physical steel type move is insane. Not being able to use it in concession isn’t too big of a deal, since you can just protect or click another move. Not to mention, Tinkaton gets stab to boost its power even further. Only thing holding it back is Tinkaton’s bad attack stat.
    It’s still really funny though.

      Yes, but they also introduces an arguably even more broken move. An effectively 200bp move with 90% accuracy, and the mon that has it has an ability that makes it effectively 300bp. Also said mon has a seprate move to both boost it's attack and speed by 1 stage, and also clear hazards at the same time.

      @Dragonstorm1234 Mystical Power is pretty trash, though.

In the same generation they made a move like Torch Song for a starter mon.
      Mystical Power could have been 100 bp and 100% accurate, and I guarantee Azelf still wouldn't rise beyond UU. Not to mention Uxie and Mesprit being straight up robbed of Mystical Power potentially being a free Cosmic Power with how its P:LA mechanics worked.

    Grapploct is such an interesting pokemon man. Access to not just octolock, but circle throw and topsy-turvy give it the position of a dynamic utility pokemon that can control your opponents stat changes and swaps. If they gave it mach punch or storm throw, the two fighting moves ideal for technician, I'd expect to see it at least 1 tier up solely for fucking with the opponents gameplan.

    Octolock is so good that my vgc team in gen 8 using grapploct actually saw some degree of success even with the atrocious stats of my favorite judo octopus. Stalling a turn on a trapped opponent turned alot of close to kill moves into kill moves and caught people off guard (especially considering it also ran soak). Main issue was the plague gamefreak added in the form of urshifu. No way to stall a turn or two for defense drops against that cancer.

    There will always be Kadabra's "Flash but with spoon" signature move Kinesis, which has never been updated to be more interesting even as Flash at least became accurate and marginally useful in singleplayer. Really the evolution line has an unhealthy relationship with spoons overall that's probably holding it back...
    Love you Kadabra, but seriously the spoon thing is worrying. We're all worried. We're your friends. You need to admit you have an addiction before we can help you.
    Please don't evolve before you address this.

    One of the more interesting moves imo is Zoroark’s signature (till Sun & Moon) Night Daze, a 95% accurate, 85 basepower Dark Type move with a 40% chance to drop accuracy. Lunala being the ONLY other pokemon that shares the move. Why do I find it interesting? Because it’s actively a more powerful move than Dark Pulse, putting a far higher chance of forcing headway against an opponents team EVEN after Zoroark is defeated with a negative accuracy.
    (This is more based around my experience in Singles on Showdown, however I still find it interesting. The only, and I mean ONLY reason people use Dark Pulse over it is BECAUSE Zoroark outs itself that way, with it’s signature move. But when has Zoroark fooled anyone for more than a turn? In this thesis I will-)

    If I had a dollar for every signature move that carried a Pokemon over the edge. I'd have four dollars. Which is crazy.
    Why? Because Shed Tail, Rage Fist, Last Respects, and Dire Claw are all absolutely ridiculous.

      dark void, geomancy, wicked blow/surging strikes (urshifu would be broken without these still but the free crits never hurt)
      you'd have a bit more than 4 dollars, plus theres definitely others im not thinking of either

    I kind of dislike the idea of signature moves.
    On the other hand i wouldn't want to deal with ceaseless edge or salt cure spam.
    But on the other hand mountain gale, toxic thread and zing zap could just be normal moves.
    Maybe some really bad mons could get some of the absurd moves, looking how it worked out for dunsparce it wouldn't make the mons broken.

      I mean almost no signature move stays signature, but it's odd how long they take to un-signature them sometimes. Lately they're almost actively refusing to do so
