OVERSHADOWED Pokémon Moves 

Yup. Pretty much everything except Contrary mons who love it.

It is impressive how a move this good existed in 2007, if Headlong Rush was a TM it’d definitely outshine Earthquake

@@ragnaricstudios5888Well I mean EQ still has the benefit of hitting both enemies (plus your other mon but you can play around that) in a Double Battle so there’s that

Several pokémon don't get CC but do get Superpower, namely Ogerpon and Malamar and Lurantis would use it over close combat because of Contary

Drain Punch, Mach Punch, & Body Press are the only widely distributed physical Fighting moves outside of CC that find use honesty

I think my favorites prolly mach punch, but honestly, unrelated....but hitmonchan shouldve gotten a punch for all pokemon types, i think thatd be funny

Mach and drain punch are classics but I also really like body press because it opened up another way to play some mons

@@InsaneGarrison25 Low Kick is good in ubers. And the moves, Sacred Sword, Superpower, Hammer Arm, Brick Break, Cross Chop, Focus Punch, Circle Throw, Seismic Toss, and High Jump Kick/Jump Kick see niche play. Though most of them aren't very widely distrubed. And yes, Seismic Toss is an physical move.

this seems like an outrageous idea, which shouldve already been a thing lmao.

There already some moves like, for example double kick and force palm, karate cho etc. The main problem is their distribution

Karate Chop is the "beginner" Fighting type move,like Peck for Flying.

I’m still waiting for a physical grass move called fruit punch, I’d also accept Alolan Punch

brick break is kind of the same thing tho

You can make it ignore any type of protection aside from detect which can block it and get more value because of this. Why? Those are moves where you create a "wall" or "barrier" can be broken and this move it's specially designed to fight that making this move more useful, not broken but useful in variety of scenarios.

@@WimerC10 yeah, like Protect being a barrier compared to Detect being an ultra instinct avoid. Brick Break should not discriminate on barriers

@@AznYunHou Yeah, and now that you mention it, detect could also get a buff, and it's that when you're hit with a physical attack (status and special won't triggert this effect) you'll do 25% of the damage recieved to the opponent this acquiring the fighting type so if a ghost hit you with a physical attack, you won't damage them but at least won't suffer damage either, but if we talk about other types the story is different, more if they have the attack boosted.

@@WimerC10 its a protect type so it wouldnt do dmg, unless your talking about the potential amount of dmg which means it would probably be a better version of spiky shield

@@WimerC10 that might make the move worth using actually

I had that on this list initially but was feeling it was more of an early move while toxic is the direct upgrade

@@MattBudYT yeah, i guess that's true

Yet even to this day is still weaker than Take Down

@@marioblaze2723and has worse accuracy than it as well

@@shardtheduraludon At this point even Tackle is better than Submission aka the og Focus Miss

It’s funny that it was probably the most viable fighting type because it actually had a useful movepool that didn’t rely on its terrible fighting STAB.

Figures eh? I’m going to say I helped bring this to life

Well baked/flash fire etc

May i mention Scrappy / Mind's Eye Leaf Guard / Purifying Salt Magic Guard / Good as Gold Reckless / Sheer Force

Good idea. I’ll add this one to the queue😁

Thanks for the inspiration!

On a randomizer that would be good. Unfortunately no mons who have Frost Breath also have Sniper/Technician🥲

I talked about that in my worse move of each type video

Yeah it really sucks to be a physical flying type and not get brave bird

Body slam has 30% chance of paralysis so it's good if you have a mon with serene grace, if not at least the stab with the 30% makes it usable.

It could have an effect like double damage to mons using fly, bounce, skydrop. The fact that its made as a suprise move to mons who take to the sky should be taking them by suprise (hence more damage).

​@@TwinsidedsoldierI don't know how much power it has, but you can make it double damage to every foe which isn't on earth, making it a very viable option. Why? Because flying type mons, levitate mons, magnet rise or variants and the moves you just mentioned gets double damage from it. Maybe a 70 base power would work because the ghost mons are the only ones (if there isn't scrappy or similar skills). Basically a flying mons facade which is dangerous if distributed wisely.

You could give new properties to these moves so they won't be as useless. Seed bomb You could be given a new life if you add 30% flinch rate, because its name evokes explosions those can stun you, then giving this property would give a good move to the grass mons with serene grace or a more dependable move because of the 80 base power it's evenly matched with iron head who also has 30% chance to flinch. Well, the rest of the moves are boosted by their own characteristics if you have a skill like iron fist or strong jaw, the only one who is lacking is wild charge, but if you make it an electrical close combat it would do wonders. Wild Charge Power, accuracy and effects of a close combat just with the electric type. Reason, after doing it you lose some of your charge reducing your defenses towars any incoming damage.

No, not quite. - Supercell Slam is a pretty garbage move all things considered. Its drawback of 50% recoil upon failure means all you need to do is switch in a Ground-type or something with the proper ability and that attacker's losing half their health - Grass-types will only use Grassy Glide if they have terrain support, so basically limited to Rillaboom and maybe ally Ogerpon in Doubles. Otherwise physical Grass-types would rather use Power Whip / Horn Leech / Wood Hammer / Leaf Blade / signature move - Heat Crash is more of a sidegrade to Flare Blitz. Max power Heat Crash is the same as Flare Blitz but without the massive recoil, so some Fire-types like Gouging Fire will sometimes use Heat Crash over Flare Blitz. Plus a few things that want Fire coverage learn Heat Crash but not Flare Blitz, such as Snorlax

Supercell Slam & Wild Charge are kind of on a middle ground, really. Depending on whether you're taking the risk of strong 100 BP with a small amount of self-harm if missed or a solid 90 BP with slight recoil impact depending on how hard you hit your opponent.

Still can't believe Pokemon Z-A got announced

It does in Legends Arceus

This one was in the works after the last video. That one is coming soon. Expect it early March

Iron Fist boosted Shadow Punch is still only 72 base power. Golurk loves No Guard Poltergeist. With Dynamic Punch/EQ and choice of coverage it’s definitely the go to now. The 8 PP is more than enough in a competitive match unless you’re facing a fat stall team that can tank all that coverage.

Dual Wingbeat is at least a solid option on a lot of flying types that don’t have Brave Bird. Dragonite, Aerodactly, and especially Technician Scyther. Air Slash more reliable than Hurricane and the flinch chance is pretty nice despite the lower power.

Shadow punch it's a perfect accuracy move for ghost and those in general have 60 power by it's characteristics, so instead of more power i would add another effect, make it let the mon be able to ignore priority moves, which will make this a lot stronger in exchange of the power, many mons can learn it, perfect precision and the priority gets nuked by this.

I would make frost breath with 30% on freezing chance. High freeze ratio, critical hits to ignore defenses which makes it a solid 90 base power move with two effects one direct (freeze) and another indirect (ignores defense boost)

Lands Wrath should have a better secondary effect because even though it's a signature move for Zygarde, Zygarde's other moves, Thousand Arrows and Thousand Waves have better use cases. (Arrows especially for hitting flying/levitating.) Maybe giving it a sorta "secret power"-esque effect that inflicts status/stat downs depending on the current terrain.

Nuzlocke runs are limited via tm distribution and placement, so your movesets in nuzlockes are often limited by what you have access to instead of by what the pokemon can theoretically learn. Nuzlockes also value consistency and pp a lot more than competitive play. In a nuzlocke, using something like high jump kick is a death sentence because you will eventually miss if you rely on it, and you only need to miss in one critical situation for a pokemon to die. Brick break is a much more reliable option that usually has the power necessary to ko the generally weaker pokemon you face. In competitive, you sometimes want to take more risks with stronger, less reliable moves because not getting a damage range to ko an opponent is more common, and not having that extra power is much more often the same as not attacking at all. Basically, every competitive battle is played as if it’s the last fight in a nuzlocke, so more reckless and riskier strategies are often needed there.

@@redwings13400 yeah that's...kinda what I said

I think you mean Tapu Bulu is overshadowed by Rillaboom

How in the world is Rillaboom "overshadowed"? Thing has been OU since it's introduction and is one of the most used VGC Pokemon

@@g.mxanthis7575 other way around

@@riceballsmashpokemongamere1705 yes

@@g.mxanthis7575 They messed up their wording. They meant to say Tapu Bulu being outclassed by Rillaboom

Probably could have added Dragon Rush but I felt the video was getting pretty lengthy😅

Would you say you’re bricked up for that move?

He meant that rillaboom overshadowed tapu bulu... also how did you not even reply to the comment
