How can we make recharge moves competitively viable again? I really miss having Hyper Beam on my Tyranitar.

>You can now switch out on the recharging turn
That was easy
>>33289374
What do you think Z-Moves are, precisely?

Nice bait, here is the (You)

Here's a thought:
Not everything has to be competitively viable.

game breaking
childhood is idolizing hyper beam
adolescence is idolizing earthquake
adulthood is idolizing flamethrower

make an item that works like Power Herb, but eliminates the recharge turn instead of the charge turn
or you know, just go full genwun and introduce an ability that allows the recharge turn skipped if you KO the enemy
Real question: When does aeroblast become a laser again?

Doesn't the Power Herb do that anyway?
>>33289434
no, it only works on moves like Dig or Solar Beam, where there is a charging turn, then execution of the move on the next turn. The power herb just eliminates the charge turn, turning those 2 turn moves into a move that takes only one.
Power herb has no effect cooldown

Maybe if we make that the Power Herb also let skip recharge turns because, you know, IT EVEN HAS "POWER" ON ITS NAME. Make recharge moves great again!
>>33289422
Not really, consider this :
In battle, you normally have the option to
>Make a move
>Switch out
>Forfeit like a pussy
So after a Hyper Beam, you only replace the option "Make a move" by "Do nothing". Which means whatever you do next, your opponent can't be hard punished.

I agree with that but there are moves that thematically should be strong and the perfect example are charge moves. If a move requires you to charge up or rest afterwards than it should have the power to match. Razor wind has no reason for being.

Gen 1 Killstreak mechanics. Then it becomes horrifically overpowered in the right hands.
