The Worst Pokémon Move of EACH BASE POWER 

Haven't watched the video but I have a feeling that explosion is gonna be the worst move with 250 power

Fun fact: Umbreon gets synchronoise. Yknow, the pure dark pokemon. Dark, the type immune to psychic.

Razor wind is definitely a move

Razor wind would actually be pretty decent if it was a 1 turn move. But it requiring a charge just makes it terrible

My differences of opinion: 65: Octazooka. Horn Attack is a pretty clear early game move and can put in a lot of work until getting access to stronger moves. Octazooka has a nice accuracy-lowering secondary effect but its 85% accuracy is just awful, but I think the fact that it was intended to be a signature move for Octillery is what really kills it; there's no reason to run this over Surf/Scald. 100: While Egg Bomb absolutely is a stinker, I still find it hard to believe Misty Explosion exists. A self-destructing special Fairy move barely any stronger than Moonblast, with its only power-boosting effect being 1.5x damage in Misty Terrain, and even then, factoring in STAB, it's effectively 25 BP less than Explosion. You have to be dealing super-effective damage or be fighting a physically-defensive, low-SpDef mon while in Misty Terrain to even be remotely worth using over a standard Fairy STAB. It was obviously meant for Misty Surge Galarian Weezing, who would almost certainly prefer Neutralizing Gas shenanigans or the Levitate ground immunity anyway. As a side note, I find it hilarious that Synchronoise can be learned by Umbreon, who is a pure Dark-type and thus any Pokemon that shares its type is immune to the move anyway.

Surprised Submission wasn't mentioned in the 80BP category. It does 1/4 recoil despite only having 80 power and 80% accuracy. And it was still somehow the best Fighting-type move for most Pokémon in Gen I.

You're not wrong about Cut, in a fair number of romhacks, Cut is turned into a Steel type move (sometimes with a base power boost), given a high crit rate, or both

9:35 Mhm. Yup. I'm setting that as my wallpaper now.

Bro it’s no wonder most of these got removed from the game

glad to see you got your channel back! had me worried there for a minute

funnily enough rage has niche uses in emerald kaizo nuzlockes due it to being one of the only available moves that lets you boost. iirc, it can be useful on fearow for brawly and on mence for the elite four. definitely agree though that it’s completely unviable in just about any other circumstance

Damm someone forgot focus miss. I dare you to try and get three staright focus blasts in a row.

Covet is only good in game. In gen 3 Kanto there's a very dumb and painstakingly long process I used with Snorlax and covet. I went to Mt Moon and went underground to find all the Paras. Killing it with covet gives you 1 Attack EV and potentially steal tiny mushrooms and big mushrooms that helps move tutor moves once you unlock the Sevii Islands. Welp I just remember that between level 49 and level 50 my Snorlax gained +17 Attack with one level. You can potentially do the same thing with Illumise and farming Heart Scales with Luvdisc but the fishing process is just longer and more probability based. No thank you.

I like your videos, always cool ideas.

I support the decision of considering Tackle a friend Also Sludge wave also has the niche of not being stoppes by Bulletproof, unlike Sludge bomb. Gengar sometimes uses it because ot's other STAB Shadow ball also get's blocked. I've walled many Landorus in VGC thanks to that ability

Razor Wind is arguably worse than scratch/pound because at least you don’t give your opponent a free turn lmao

It's niche but Covet does have some uses, it's one of the few moves that doesn't get called by Assist, meaning that together with Thief you hit every type for at least neutral damage when for example making a prankster assist team, ambipom also liked this move because it's a good stab move for it with technician (Tail Slap is also good but less accurate), and like thief it can be used to permanently steal someone's item. It's a shame most Pokémon that learn it also learns thief though, which with no immunities does make it better

synchronoise should hit neutral to psychic types

Honestly I can see Synchonoise being viable on Sigilyph since it gets tinted lens for an ability

Constrict should be 70 base power, and deal double damage to targets affected by trapping moves like Wrap, Whirlpool and Fire Spin. That would be unique.

Video suggestion: Best/Worst status moves of each type

11:48 not when you're using a Beldum, whose only move in its level-up learnset used to be Take Down in the earlier generations until Gen8, which changed it to Tackle instead.

I’m shocked that submission was not even considered for 80 base power

If skull bash was a steel type move, and you gave to zamazenta it could be potentially strong, boosting bulk and body press and hitting SUPER hard even with low offensive ev investments. Of course being a charge move hurts it, but it can catch utility mons off guard, and steel is pretty good at hitting neutrally, boosting bulk also makes the potential switch-ins regret ever coming in

I legit thought Explosion still halved defense lol

Truly the list of all time

I think my craziest idea i had to win a game was to soak my espeon in triple battle to have it hit an annoying ass physically defensive tentacruel in a secret base battle(oras) that was walling me. Outside of that specific instance i never used it outside of murdering the zubat line

For 50 BP, I would've gone with Magnet bomb, because only the Magnezone line learns it, and they're all special attackers. So even though they get STAB on it, it's using their weaker attack stat.

I know someone like vinewhip. Hope it’s back is ok :(

I am late but I would like to mention one of the worst 100 bp moves It is Misty Explosion 100 bp 100 accuracy special move that hits every mon on the field and K.O. the user and if there is Misty Terrain on the field the bp becames 150 In other words it's a weaker fairy type Self-Destruct

it would be hilarious if you did a 420 special (something about grass types maybe?)

Baba booey Other than that, I was left saying “oh yeah, that move exists!” often while watching this video, especially when it came to Synchronoise. Interesting idea but could’ve been better. I’d be interested in a best/worst Status Moves video

Covet is kinda good in that fan game PokeRogue tho. Thief is... Well i dont remember even seeing it and stealing items can really hekp you in that game. Plus im sure meowth learns this and he has technician. But yeah this mostly wins cause thief just kinda left lol. Also bounce is good on few pokemon assuming you play against AI. Lets just say azumarril suddenly having grass coverage while using huge power is some big brain play...

Tackle is 40 BP in our hearts, and has 95% accuracy unlike Pound/Scratch.

I agree with you Matt

Maybe make a video about best shiny of each type?

Bounce saw use with Gyrados for a while for dynamax/z-moves since it gets no flying coverage. I still think it's the worst move, but it has seen more use than night daze or shadow bone I believe.

I think Take Down is only semi okay to use with Rock Head or one of the "-ilate" abilities. Like with Aurorus or Mega Altaria. Not good by any means, but more usable than with most other Pokemon in general. It is still very replaceable, but okay for midgame strats if you want a decently strong stab move before getting the better Double Edge by the endgame/postgame. Competitvely though it is dogwater. You are mever winning a massive tournament with Take Down as a main STAB ever. Feel free to prove me wrong, but the cards are staked against take down as a move.

how could you forget submission in the 80 base piwer section?

The main reason you'd run covert or thief is to steal items from wild pokemon, in which case covert is better in most scenarios since it has more pp.

Rage is really good early in many games.

ultimate power is my worst move for base power 500 it boosts all of the user's stats by six stages and KOs the rest of the user's party

Inferno should've had a mention, 50% accuracy is terrible

Submission is just a worse cross chop aside from 5 more accuracy

gen 1 Bind is crazy tho 😢

What about inferno? It has 50% accuracy and 100 power And what about zap cannon? 120 power with 50% accuracy Sure both of these moves inflict their status effect 100% of the time, still, the low accuracy makes en quite bad x3 Im probably missing something here

5:42 Ayo

Isn't wing attack 60 BP with no side effect which makes covet at least better than that

insane that you didn't consider Misty Explosion for the 100 BP move, its like self destruct but with half the power, and even in misty terrain its not that good

biggest tip i can give you: volume consistency, no one wants their ear drums blown out because you played a noise super loud thinking it was funny, loud≠funny

Baba Booey 💪💪

Hey… i thiiiiiink you forgot that fury swipes is a multihit move

I don't know how, but I came here first. To celebrate, I'm subscribing

I wonder what's the worst move with a Base Power of 10...

Submission is definitely up there for worst 80 Base power moves. It has 80% accuracy and big recoil. Imo I'd rather use slam or razor wind... razor wind is absolutely garbage though

worst status move of every type next !

Baba booey indeed

Base Power 15, burger king foot lettuce

Constrict

Fire Blast is worse than Thunder imo, it has the same drawbacks but it's not used in any situation, unlike Thunder

I would argue that Covet is much better than Round. The ability to take items is definitely helpful especially early on when pokemon might hold stuff like berries. In competitive, you also have the option to use Covet on normal type Technician users like Persian & Ambipom, where Round has no such luxury. Doesn’t help that Round’s gimmick is also terrible, since it forces another pokemon to use Round on the same turn.

B A B A B O O E Y

Rage! Aaaaaaaahhhh!!!!😂😂😂😂

BbB aaooey

I take issue with Bounce because Gyarados could use it in Gen 8 as Max Airstream.

Baba Booey? no idea what that means but whatever.

Algorithm

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Burger king!!!!

Not that this would elevate its position as the worst move but Synchronoise actually has niche competitive use for GOLDUCK to hit toxapex/other waters and run with a Z crystal
