So after their nerf in Gen 6, are moves like Thunder, Blizzard, Fire Blast, and Hydro Pump completely worthless next to their 90-95 BP counterparts?

>Thunder and Blizzard - Worthless outside of rain and hail anyway
>Fire Blast and Hydro Pump: The power still makes them worthwhile
So long as i can still laugh at people complaining that there attack missed when they had a perfectly valid 100 acc move to go with they will not be worthless
Fire Blast and Hydro Pump are better on offensive Pokemon. Thunder and Blizzard are only worth using if your team is built around the appropriate weather.

fuck scald

>huge hit chance
>30% chance to burn
>enormous power
Yes anon, Fire Blast is clearly worthless.

That would have failed to get the KO.
That's why people use lower-accuracy moves. It sucks when you miss, yeah, but the extra power makes them worth the risk.

It's actually only 10%
Scald>Hydro Pump>Surf
Thunderbolt>Thunder except in the rain
Ice beam>Blizzard (ice only really used for 4x weak dragons anyways)
Fire Blast=Flamethrower (Depends on whether or not it's a STAB move since it's used by so many non-fire types with shit SpA)
