In this thread we discuss the new Moves (design, usefulness, etc.)

Seems good for Sandstorm teams, hopefully more Pokémon get acces to it in the future.
I hope Liquidation gets more distribution. I don't quite know how it works technically but seems like a stronger Aqua jet.
I feel like rock and ground types like Golem and Gigalith should get shore up to be more useful since rock types tend to have good defence so they could make good physical walls.

It's a water type crunch. No priority.
Throat chop needs to hit harder

Garchomp and Steelix should get Shore Up
I like the fact that a lot of new Pokemon got signature moves, it makes them feel more unique.
Darkest Lariat is one of my favourites, I think the animation is great. Beak Blast is also pretty novel - not fantastic, but certainly has utility in game.
I'd like to see Accelerock have a wider distribution. It's so rare that a Rock type attack has 100% accuracy, but it's only on an already fairly fast Pokemon anyway.

doesn't make sense for them as they are not made of sand.
>>32203542
None of them is made of (or can store within) sand. I think hippowdon would make a better candidate. It already gets slack off, but with shore up it has 75% recovery for 5 guaranteed turns at least.

bellossom should have trop kick
steelix should get anchor shot
torkoal should have shell trap

Would you really preffer sand veil shore up garchomp in a sandstorm?
Steelix would be fine, it just doesn't fit
