Let's be creative!
With Flying Press, Gen 6 introduced the first dual-type move. Although this move in particular isn't too useful, the concept of dual-type moves is pretty cool and could give a Pokemon great coverage and expand an otherwise limited moveset.
So let's come up with useful/interesting but also realistic dual-type moves which GF could/should implement in future games!
We do it like this:
-Name
-Primary Type/Secondary Type
-Relevant stats(Like Power, Accuracy, PP..)
-(Additional) Effect(s)
-Distribution + Info (is it a signature move? Can it be used outside of battle? How does it look etc.)
Example:
-Ectoplasm
-Ghost/Poison
-Special / Power80 / Acc.:95 / 10pp
-30% chance to cause paralysis
-Signature move of Gengar, but should be available to some other Ghost types as well (the more "incorporeal" ones, like Spiritomb or Rotom, but not Aegislash, Golurk or Sableeye) via breeding or TM.
The user becomes transparent and floats right through the opponent, leaving him drenched in greenish goo.
2. Example:
-Fallout
-Steel/Poison
-Special / Power95 / Acc.:100 / 10pp
-30% chance to burn opponent
-not a signature move of an existing Pokemon, but would fit a nuclear/radiation themed Pokemon! Available to Weezing, Mug, Garbodor, Magnezone, Probopass.
The arena turns into a dark red while the camera zooms in on the user who starts to emit a bright light. Think of a more menacing looking dazzling gleam! It hits every surrounding Pokemon, like EQ. It's especially deadly for Fairies!
Now it's your turn! Have fun!

>buffing Gengar more
I like Gengar but really?

Was really just an example. You're right, Gengar doesn't need it!

Ki Flame
Fighting/Fire
85BP, 100accuracy, 15PP
No additional effects
Does not make contact
Tutor move, all fighting types can learn it as well as a few Fire pokemon/Mew/Mewtwo/Arceus
Ferrothorn needs to prepare its anus.
>>
BoltBeam
-Ice/Electric
-Special /Power 95 / Acc 100 / 10pp
-The user fires an electricly charged beam of ice.
After seeing some charts, this would be much worse than one would think
>>
>>27860588
It's special obviously.
Forgot that.
>>
Electromagnetic Burst
Steel/Electric
Special/90 Power/90 Acc
Hits all Pokemon in a multi battle. Prevents Steel and Electric types from using non-attacking moves.
Magnezone and Probopass get it for sure, maybe a handful of other Steel types as well.
>>
Beast Slayer
Fairy/Dragon
Physical / 110BP / 95 Acc / 5 pp
It "destroys" dragon types (removes the dragon typing or turns it into normal when it's a mono).
It's absolutely deadly for dragons, with the drawback of loosing its SE since the opponent isn't dragon type anymore (until he switches out).
Signature move of Gallade (he should be Fairy/Fighting imo...), but can be learned by other knight-like pokemon like Aegislash, Escavalier, Caesurio, Swords of justice trio, Samurott, Chesnaught..
>>
Pepper Spray
Poison/Fire
BP 20, Acc 100
10% chance to lower opponent's accuracy 1 stage, 10% chance to burn
Koffing, stunky, salandit
>>
-Necromancy
-Ghost/Dark
-Special 50BP 100Acc 20pp
- Turns ghost type into normal type
An evil spell that drags ghosts back into the realm of the living while being 4x SE, but only once (ghost -> no effect on normal types).
Can be learned by magician/wizard/witch themed Pokemon (Delphox, Mismagius, Mr. Mime, Jynx, Hoopa)
>>
>>27860450
-Mystic Fist
-Fighting/Ghost
Physical/Power 65/Acc. 90/PP 20
-Counts as a Punch move, ignores immunities (i.e. would hit Aegislash for SE damage)
Not a signature move, but available to Golurk soon after it evolves. Given to some ghosts, and all Psychic/Fighting types or "mystical" Fighters like Mienshao.
The user flickers between visible and invisible as it approaches the target.
>>
Can a Dual-Type move have the same type twice?
>>
Eiskrach
- Ice/Psychic
- Special 80BP 100Acc 15PP
- the special equivalent of Brick Break
- Signature move of Jynx. It's a high-pitched scream that shatters glass. Removes Light Screen and Reflect.
The animation is similar to other sound based moves but when it hits the opponent, the screen breaks into peaces for a second with the sound of shattering glass.
Can be learned by Jynx, Mismagius(Banshee) line, Exploud line, Jigglypuff line, Chalot, Kricketune, Poppmaid

What, like a Fire/Fire type move?
I hope not. This kills the Parasect.
>>
>>27861622
Hm.. only if it makes sense. I don't see how, though.. you have an example?
>>
I have a feeling Sunsteel Strike is going to be a dual type Steel/Fire move
>>
>>27861861
That's what I thought, too! I mean, there has to be more to their signature move than just power.. at least I hope so
>>
>>27862114
And Moongeist Beam could be Ghost/Fairy (because moon stands for fairy and geist is ghost in german)
>>
>>27860944
thanks mr germany

>252 Atk Mega Gallade (No Move) vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Garchomp: 428-508 (101.9 - 120.9%) -- guaranteed OHKO
Hot damn.
>>
>>27863027

Caesurio = Bisharp
>>
>>27860450
Blinding Flash
Electric/Fairy
100 BP, 100% accuracy, 16 PP
50% chance of confusing the foe, 100% chance of lowering accuracy, goes through substitutes, 10% chance of paralyzing the foe, super effective on ghost type Pokémon

>>27864331
