ITT: Moves that no one has ever used

Why did those moves exist?

>>30297352
Semi-signature moves for Nintendo's worst attempt at forcing a meme, the elemental monkeys.

>>30297352
It was a triple battle gimmick

>>30297352
A B/W (((tactics))) autism moveset that became completely useless in Double Battles since you can just use the Hyper Beam variation and not waste two entire moveslots on extremely situational tactics.

Are triple battles even in this game?

They were in XY right?

I used fire and water pledge just for memes

>>30297428
Removed

Add Quash, Ally Switch, and Round to the shit no one wants to use.because triple battles were a shitty gimmick.

What was even the point of triple battles

They should have known that no one would play it

>>30297724
At least they added based Rotation in the same gen

>>30297724
I once got wrecked by the old Weavile-Terrakion-Genie combo with Tailwind and Beatup. Plus setting up a sturdy Shedinja in the fastest way possible with lowered risks.

Tons of gimmicks.

I wonder - what if VGCs switched to Triples?

>Geodude used Mud Sport

embargo. because you can use items when you're fighting real people, right?

>>30297921
It still stops the pokemon from using its held item

>>30297724
It could have seen a lot of use, but they fucked up in its intro generatiom by using it so little

Noteably, you can never fight the three striaton gym leaders in such a fight. I get it, first gym etc., but holy crap at least give us a rematch

Night Shade.

Since it would only do 50 damage in competitive

That's not the reason, the reason is that no walls can learn it. Seismic Toss is run on every Blissey ever.

Most people don't even know this moves exists
to be fair it does literally nothing

>>30297234
>tfw Pledges are actually somewhat decent in this game

100acc 80bp STAB once you max friendship is alright. Except the water one since you get Scald so damn early.

>>30298412
I like how one of the only three Pokemon for which the move was distributed is Vivillon, a Pokemon with no hands.

Eviolite Dusclops
It's not the greatest but it's something

Seriously? Nobody mentioned this shit?

Confide, I don't know why they made it a TM

>>30298412
delet this

>>30297234
>The first pledge still attacks as normal, kind of like a set up
>Second pledge is the enhanced version
>Has more distribution than just starters
There I just fixed the move

>>30297234
Fuck that I was thrilled I could trade in Leafage for a 80bp move before level 10. Totally worth it now for just that reason. I'm sure sealfags we even happier doubling Water Gun off the bat.

>>30297652
>Quash
I've seen this in VGC 2016

>Ally Switch
I used this. It worked.

>Round
This is shit

>>30299298
The only time I've been fucked by Round was PSMD

>>30298382
BASED INCASE

>>30297724
They wanted to rip off Dragon Quest Monsters

>>30299359
or more like any traditional JRPG
If anything, SM feels like the most traditional JRPG despite having a lot of 1v1s

>>30298884
I remember using this back in Gen 3 quite a bit. It's outclassed by Disable in a few ways.

>>30298884
Spite works really well against opponents without PP boosts or scarfed enemies. That's about it for uses though, real niche.

>be me
>be trying to catch Snorlax in FR/LG

>Snorlax can't do shit to Gastly
>Wait for Snorlax to uses Rest
>Useless, since it has full HP
>Spite that move until it got no PP

>>30297234
Nigga Grass Pledge was amazing if you chose Treecko in ORAS.
