Perkilator Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) When it comes to new moves, the ideas are limitless. One I just had was with translating abilities from Fire Emblem into Pokémon as moves. For my OP, I was primarily focused on the FE roster's Smash specials, but feel free to use any ability that has to do with FE. Here's mine: Dancing Blade (Steel, 15PP): Hits the target with two to four slashes in rhythmic succession. Shield Breaker (Steel, 10PP): A powerful blow that breaks barriers, including ones that protect the target. It also harshly decreases the target's Defense. Double-Edge Dance (Fire, 15PP): Hits the target with three quick slashes and a powerful fourth all at once. It may leave the target with a burn. Flare Blade (Fire, 10PP): A mighty flare that charges for two turns, and can nearly one-hit KO when super-effective. Inflicts recoil on the user. Quick Draw (Normal, 10PP): The user waits a turn to slash the target. The accuracy and power depend on the user's Speed. Aether (Fighting, 8PP): The user flies into the sky one turn, then slashes down and upward upon landing the next turn. Nosferatu (Dark, 20PP): The user attacks with dark magic that not only binds the target, but drains them. Goetia (Dark, 5PP): The user casts powerful dark magic that prevents the target from escaping. Pair Up (Normal, 25PP): The user not only boosts an ally's stats, but can sometimes take hits for them. Dragon Fang Shot (Dragon, 15PP): The user fires a ball of draconic water, then bites the target the next turn. Dragon Lunge (Dragon, 15PP): The user lunges towards the target and sticks to the floor. They must use a different move the next turn. Counter Surge (Water, 20PP): The user waits for their target's attack. When struck, the user unleashes a wave that hits multiple targets. Torrential Roar (Water, 5PP): The user roars at the target with a torrent. The target becomes bound, should they survive the first hit.

Topaz Light Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) Hmmm... Here's a few: Astra (Fighting, Physical, 15PP): The user attacks with a quick flurry of strikes. Multi-hit move that always strikes five times.Nosferatu (Psychic, Special, 15PP): The user siphons vitality from a foe using a magical power. Basically Psychic-type Giga Drain.Excalibur (Flying, Special, 10PP): The user attacks with razor-sharp wind currents. This move has an increased critical hit rate, and will hit targets using Fly, Bounce, or Sky Drop for double damage.Bane (Dark, Physical, 5PP): The user ruthlessly attacks the target's weak points, reducing its HP to one. Fails against targets with higher levels than the user.Book of Naga (Dragon, Special, 5PP): The user invokes the spirit of an ancient dragon to attack the target. After using this move, the user's Defense and Special Defense sharply increase.Ward (Psychic, Status, 10PP): The user shrouds itself in a protective veil, sharply raising Special Defense.

Anacybele Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I'd comment, but no one's listing the power of these moves. Just the uses and types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topaz Light Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Honestly in my case it's just because coming up with a specific Power value would require a lot more checking prospective numbers against official moves' than I really felt like doing for a post in a thread like this one. Astra, specifically, I would probably assign 25 Power to match the other higher-end multi-hit moves. I might also decrease its max PP down to just 5 since it's guaranteed to get the full 5 hits and isn't chance-based like other similar moves.
