The Nominations Process will consist of you bold-facing your nominations and defending/supporting your choice(s). There is no limit for the amount of Pokémon you wish to support. More than one person can independently support a Pokémon. You are only allowed one post total in the Nominations Process. Make it a good, solid, long one. Imagine writing an essay for a 5 on AP English. That level is what will make the nominations pass easily. It is your defense of your nominee, not whether or not I personally deem it broken. If you have good points, I will surely allow it in the vote.
The nominees are then selected (once again, no limit on that) for voting. There will be an Approval Poll and a Argument Process. You simply list your votes in the approval poll; no support is necessary. A majority consists of at least 5 people (since there are sooooo many Pokémon). However, for the Argument Process, if you wish to explain why a concept would be broken, explain your case in the same way you would for the Nominations Process. Only this time, you are against the nominee rather than for it. Once all that is done, I'll publish the final results of CAM: Move Tutor 1. If everyone is satisfied, then we are done; those Pokémon get those moves.
NOTE TO PLUSLE: You may have to change the move distribution you set up because of...THIS. Sorry, dude.

Here is the order in which you place your nominees:
If you have more than one nominee, just add it after your first one. Follow the format.

KEEP THE NUMBERS CONSISTENT WITH THIS LIST.

I will edit this post later for my nominations. This will be open until Friday evening. Have at it! :D

1) Flare Blitz
Groudon
Groudon absolutely needs a stronger Fire-type Physical move than Fire Punch. Per se, it is the strongest user of Flare Blitz in the entire Metagame and would strike fear in Ground-resisting Steels and Chlorophyll abusers on the switch. It can now run a revised Ground/Fire/Rock set or Ground/Fire/Dragon for perfect coverage (except the first doesn't get Flygon for a neutral hit) and more power.
This becomes Groudon's strongest move, actually...

• 252atk adamant groudon vs. 252hp/252def bold celebi=85%-100%

Yes. Celebi can't stay in anymore.
Donphan
Flare Blitz gets Donphan a stronger move when facing the ever-so-popular Grass-types running around in "UU" (historically). Unlike Groudon, it makes up for it's lack of pseudo-stab with priority. A set of Earthquake/Head Smash/Flare Blitz/Ice Shard hits everything in the game with 11 of the 17 types hit super effectively (with 9 of them hit with BP 120 and over after STAB). Donphan takes great advantage of the opportunities Flare Blitz gives it.
Aerodactyl
Not a very imagined recipient of the move, but Aerodactyl receives Flamethrower, Fire Blast, and Fire Fang. Flavor-wise, it is plausible, and Aerodactyl is a fantastic user of it for one critical reason: Rock Head. This turns the ability usable and gives Aerodactyl a reason to be on the offensive in conjunction with Stone Edge or Rock Slide/Earthquake. It's 105atk and 130spd make excellent use of a 120bp move like Flare Blitz. Earthquake/Stone Edge/Aqua Tail/Flare Blitz hits everything for neutral coverage.

2) Recover/Slack Off/Softboiled/Roost

3) Sucker Punch

4) Trickery
Umbreon
Umbreon's low offensive stats and high defensive stats can make use of a move where it needs to do nothing and still get STAB. The use of trickery vastly improves any versions of stall Umbreon runs, allowing it to invest in hp, def, and sp def. A set like Trickery, Toxic, Wish, and Confuse Ray could smack things around.

5) Tail Glow
Charizard
Charizard has suffered the curse of not being able to utilize his higher Sp. Atk in favor of Belly Drum variants. On top of that, the BellyZards that were so popular were all wiped out by an entry hazard called Stealth Rock. The advantage Charizard has of using a Special Set is more survivability. Give Charizard Tail Glow, and we have a top-tier threat in OU.

• At the minimum and assuming Charizard is not using a Life Orb or other Power-Enhancing item, Modest Charizard's Fire Blast after Tail Glow does 51% to the standard 252hp/252def/4sp def Bold Blissey.

That guarantees a 2HKO on the best special wall in the game!
Gyarados
Although an odd choice, Max Sp. Atk Gyarados after a Tail Glow gets a whopping 600 Sp. Atk! With Hydro Pump and two moves from the choice of Fire Blast/Thunder/Blizzard, Gyarados can wall and dish out serious damage to Dual-Types exploited by one of these moves. Gyarados can also opt for 3 out of the 4 Surf/Flamethrower/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam for Accuracy-Power trade-off. Gyarados has a multitude of possibilities to switch in and set up. It can also use this in conjunction with Overconfidence to make a deadly mixed set!
Dragonite

Dragonite has a perfectly usable Sp. Atk stat and it definitely is worth using. Over his other Dragon-types and most Special Sweepers, he has the superior movepool (Gale, Thunder, Blizzard, Fire Blast, Surf, Focus Blast, Dragon Pulse) worth using with his already decent Sp. Atk. What set's him apart would be the ability to use Tail Glow to boost a Modest Dragonite's Sp. Atk of 328 to 820!

• At the minimum and a Sp. Atk of 820, Dragonite's Focus Blast does 64.8% to the standard 252hp/252def/4sp def Bold Blissey!

• To something with 100 Base Sp. Def Maxed out, Draco Meteor does 377.4HP worth of Damage at the very minimum!

After that, you still have a +1 Sp. Atk!

• Using Gale instead will do 324HP of Damage at the minimum!

A Rain-set could include Tail Glow/Surf/Gale/Thunder for perfect Accuracy and and near perfect coverage (missing Zekrom, Diagla, and Nattorei) This fully differentiates him from the other pseudo-legendaries.
Ampharos
With a base 115 Sp. Atk already, Ampharos has potential to become the strongest Electric-type in the game (assuming Zekrom doesn't get Tail Glow). With a moveset of Thunder Wave/Tail Glow/HP Ice/Thunderbolt holding leftovers, he gets his Sp. Atk all the way to 903 with a single Tail Glow!

• A Thunder from Ampharos to the standard 252hp/252def/4sp def Blissey would deal 53.1% at the minimum!

Ninjask
The opportunities of Baton Passing this are too great... This will literally be the thing that makes the Special Attackers more valuable than the Physical ones in the metagame.
Yanmega
Yanmega lacks the high-power moves Charizard, Gyarados, Dragonite, and Ampharos have, but it does have the highest Base Sp. Atk (116 beats Ampharos and his 115) and access to two deadly abilities. Tinted Lens lets Yanmega get complete neutral coverage with just Bug Buzz and Air Slash, allowing him to use Hypnosis as well. He could also turn to Speed Boost to deal massive damage with the coverage of Bug Buzz, Air Slash, and HP Fighting while boosting his speed, being harder to stop.
Agirudaa
With amazing speed already, Arigudaa can achieve a Sp. Atk of nearly 750 while retaining a Speed-maxing nature. Though coverage isn't perfect and vulnerability to priority is high, Arigudaa can plow through teams not prepared for Bug Buzz/Focus Blast/HP Dragon or Ghost.

6) Aura Sphere
Alakazam
With a set of Calm Mind, Psycho Shock, Shadow Ball, and Aura Sphere, Alakazam will claim his land of OU once again (like good ol' RBY days). The biggest problem with Alakazam (aside from vulnerability to priority) is Focus Blast.

• A Timid Alakazam after Calm Mind using Aura Sphere will do 100.7% to a Neutral Nature (in terms of Sp. Def) to a 252hp/0 sp def Tyranitar at the minimum.

Alakazam wins!
Dragonite
If Dragonite gets Tail Glow, Aura Sphere would be an amazing addition to Dragonite's movepool. One duo for perfect coverage that is often overlooked is Dragon/Fighting. A set of Tail Glow, Aura Sphere, Dragon Pulse, and Roost can maintain Dragonite's bulk while destroying everything.

• Once again, the standard 252hp/4sp def Bold Blissey will take 48.6% at the minimum from a Tail Glow Dragonite's Aura Sphere! On average, it'll be 53%. One on the switch, and the next for the 2HKO.

Aesthetically, Aura Sphere looks like it belongs to Dragonite.
Ampharos
Ampharos is in desperate need of a movepool upgrade. A movepool of Tail Glow, Thunderbolt, Aura Sphere, and Power Gem will hit all of Ampharos's threats and will 2HKO 252hp/4sp def Bold Blissey since Ampharos has a higher base Sp Atk than Dragonite.
Gardevoir
This thing can use something other than Focus Blast, please. Aside from flavor (and the fact that male Kirlia will invoke some Fighting-type within themselves upon evolution), Gardevoir can hit Steels and Darks handily with one move (as most Psychic-type Pokémon desire). Gardevoir can start using sets of Psycho Shock/Shadow Ball/Aura Sphere in its sets for optimum coverage and power.
Latios & Latias
These two have not been entirely lost without Soul Dew (which could be revived any moment soon), for a set with Calm Mind/Dragon Pulse/Aura Sphere/Psycho Shock or Recover or Thunder Wave gets perfect coverage while being hard to kill (especially for Latias). At this rate, these two don't need a Fire-type move if they get Aura Sphere because it is much more useful.
Agirudaa
Arigudaa also suffers the problem of not having options for Sp Atk coverage. Its amazing speed coupled with a Tail Glow will sweep through teams not prepared.

7) Wood Hammer
Ursaring
Sceptile
Swampert
Roopushin
Will update later.

8) Nasty Plot
I recommend no nominations.

9) Close Combat
Scizor
Sceptile
Blaziken
Jaroda

10) Drill Liner
Rapidash
Anything named "Heatran" or any of his Flash-Fire friends can't afford to wall Rapidash anymore. The desired moves on Rapidash used to be Flare Blitz, Megahorn, and Hypnosis. Now, a very necessary Ground-type fourth move works just fine for Rapidash. 100atk and 105spd are perfectly usable to plow through things like a horse and hypnotize anything you can't deal with immediately.

I did the damage calculations mentally, but they are getting a bit complicated... Ah, I'm too lazy to get the TI-84 out...
Bottom Line: Everyone needs damage calculations for Pokémon they nominate as well as reasoning why. Not necessary for all moves (especially recover...) or all your nomimations, but include them. Find the damage formula on Serebii; it's an easy formula.

Another note: to the critics of this process, it's built quite cleverly! The more you nominate, the more you must write!

Oh... keep in mind that you can nominate anyone! Not just the people I'm nominating if you're confused!

I will update with my votes later

Votes: (1)Flare Blitz
Houndoom
Houndoom is usally a good special sweeper,but is often overlooked as a mixed one. This move helps boost his mixed potential.

Ho-Oh
In general sacred fire is better, but flare blitz is good for scoring extra KO'S

Kuitaran

has good dual offensive stats and may be fun with sun teams in the lower tiers.

Reshiram

Helps it deal with blissey, which is useful for non specs versions.

Torkoal

Not really much use. Could be a gimmick. Give it for flavour.


Baokki
Can get it into blaze/gluttony range


(2) Recover
I removed a lot and this is my list.


Golduck
Tentacruel
Muk
Swalot
Wailord
Drifblim
Dusknoir
Giratina
Musharna
Tabunne
Iwaperesu
Desukaan
Maggyo
Goruggu
ulgamoth
all because of no reliable recovery.

Lapras
just for flavour as it can use hydration-rest


3 Sucker Punch
Weavile - this really helps him
Tyranitar - Great against shandeera and starmie much better than crunch
Shiftry - Fair enough
Sharpedo - he does not hvae hands and does not need it as he has speed boost
Crawdaunt - Fair enough
Skuntank - He already has it
Drapion- Good user but no hands
Waruvial - See ttar
Zuruzukin -good foe Sd sets
Barujina -fair enough
Sazandora - May be on a few mix attacker sets
Hitmonlee- chan gets it


4 Trickery

I don't think this should be given away. Only bliss and Erufuun need it and it does not fit blisses theme.

So just
Erufuun- allows it to invest I'm defenses to make a more potent subseeder

5 Tail Glow

Everything added/confirmed

6 Aura sphere
darkrai
zoroark
More reliable way of hitting steels.

azelf
mesprit
uxie
Victini
Rankirusu
Deoxys
Latias
Latios
Alakazam
Mismagius
Meloetta
Gengar

All these pokes have a pursuit weak and this helps to stop it by killing darks.

Kerudio- good on mixed sets
Medicham- flavour

7.Ludicolo- This might help make rain more viable in OU since a SD Ludicolo in the rain with Wood Hammer is pretty scary.
Leafeon- This might make it viable in OU, since 130 Base Attack is nothing to scoff at.
Cradily- Cradily is actually a pretty amazing pokemon - its main problem is that its main STAB moves are Seed Bomb (lol) and Stone Edge, which is walled by Hippowdon forever.
Celebi-It might make SD BP Celebi more viable, as a +2 LO 120 STAB move coming off a 100 Base Attack is pretty deadly.
Cacturne- help boost it out of nu and make it a great uu grass type.
Shiftry- see above

8. Nasty Plot
Gengar- it's crying out ofor this and it also helps it beat blissey.
Mewtwo- this really could be broken but it needs testing.

9) Close Combat
Scizor- Helps it to beat pesky steels without a attack drop.
Sceptile-/\see above
Blaziken- more reliable than high jump kick.

10) Drill Liner
Beedrill
Rapidash
Seaking
Dodrio

Drill liner allows all these pokemon to beat steel and rock types which wall them. They also
all have drills and really need this move.

Well, I will do what I think deserves it the most, because I plan on play testing very carefully with what I choose.

1) Flare Blitz
Baffuron
One of the pokemon that could really get great use out of this move, as it would add to his less then great coverage, and it synergies very well with his ability and stats. If we wanted better coverage, on say a CB set, what would flare blitz give him? I would run Afro Break, EQ, Wild Bolt and then SE or megahorn. Afro Break is his STAB, so if they don't resist it, he will hurt anyone. It would be necessary to scout for the best results. That leaves Rock, Ghost and Steel. He has EQ, and rock+flying/levitate isn't a huge threat on the defense, so you do have something for steel/rock, but it's not reckless damage. Wild bolt is nice typing for a pesky non-defensive flying or water, and stone edge is actually kind of redundant, because you really cover everything rock does with just WB and EQ, without the miss chance. Megahorn is nice for dark/psychic/grass who you would be getting neutral hits on, but it's inaccurate and does not benefit from reckless. You would do nearly the same with a STAB Afro. There is not a moveset that can give this buffalo a shot at rewarding good predictions which is a necessity when running choice band. He's already not fast, and he has bulk enough to take the average attack and recoil. Flare blitz will make baffuron very threatening to incoming steels, while not making him too good in anyway. I ran some tests with the gen V EV calc swapping EQ and flare blitz to see the comparison. Things like Jirachi, metagross and registeel don't get OHKO'd by banded EQ, but band and sometimes LO Flare blitz KO's nearly everytime, especially with SR up. Things like nattorei, scizor, aianto, genosekuto, forretress, shubarugo, you couldn't touch other wise. All OHKO. And that bulk? CB scizor's bullet punch is nearly always a 3HKO on a 252hp buffalo with no def EV's. Isn't that neat?

Tauros
Generally the same argument with Afrolo. The main differences is reckless, but we aren't putting FB on afro mainly for that, it's the coverage that it adds. Tauros has to stick with return, has considerably less bulk but is twice as fast. It is definitely not too strong for tauros even with base 110 speed. He's an NU poke who has potential to be top UU or even breach OU in gen V, and I think that could see the light of day with strong reliable coverage FB will give.

2) Recover
I'm not interested in giving this to anyone.

3) Sucker Punch
Weavile
I really can't find a reason not to give weavile this. Now you may think he'd appreciate it on his FS lead set, but that set is fine as it is and fulfills it's purpose without SP. The place where it will really shine is the CB or SD set. It gives Weavile tremendous capability vs scarfers and speed boosts. And it has 10 more BP then night slash. The only part is the redundancy of weavile's fantastic speed and SP's priority. It would require a lot more scouting and prediction, but that just makes it more fun.
Tyranitar
This is tricky. I really want to test it to see how this will impact Ttar's already fantastic sets. It nullifies his only bad stat, speed, and adds a STAB 80BP move that can seriously dent anything. The only thing is how severely this would improve BOAH. If he gets a sub up, you practically have to have a priority move on a poke that can take a focus punch and OHKO Ttar. Whirlwind/roar will stop it, but you have to take a FP and ttar is still perfectly capable of coming in again and wreaking havoc without a sub. It limits the counters to a handful of things, and you would just need one poke to answer all these threats (I.E. shadow tag shandera). I could completely understand if this does not make it through, but I would like to see what it could do in practice.

4) Trickery
Umbreon
I do believe this would be a nice suprise move for him. On anything but the curse set, you are going to a physical attacker coming in to try and ruin Umbreon's day. Trickery only uses the enemy's attack stat, so it is STAB. You could run this with any set and throw this bad boy in there, and Umbreon will do substantial damage to the usual switches. Let's see... Lefties umbreon with Trickery, toxic, taunt, wish, 252hp/128def/128Sdef.
With people running only what is good, you can be pretty sure that they will most likely send in the biggest baddest physical threat or something to set-up here. You could make a lot of trouble with this and get off a wish to pass at the end. Maybe you might want to run some speed to out pace some walls, and Im sure baton passing can work with this, as you can still respond harshly if you can't initially pull it off. It's the only attack move umbreon really needs to run. I don't understand why they didn't put it on the dark flag-boy in the first place.

5) Tail Glow
You guys deal with this -_- I'll just figure out how I can stop whatever you throw at me with my BOAH :)

6) Aura Sphere
Gengar
Fairly simple here. There is rarely a reason for gengar to play guessing games with focus blast when you can the reliable aura sphere to do the same job. It nearly always KO's tyranitar on it's bulkier sets (88% against 252hp). It does about 21%-25% to blissey, respectable numbers when whittling it down with pain split/sub. It's exactly the same as choosing between fire blast and flamethrower. Power and accuracy trade off.

7) Wood Hammer
Cacturne
I would personally use this, as I run cacturne all the time. This would greatly help his strengths vs bulky waters while on a sandstorm team, often hard counters to. WH gives OHKO chances against things like suicune and tentacruel that seed bomb does not.

8) Nasty Plot

9) Close Combat

10) Drill Liner

I will finish this later.

I will repost this later this week when my work schedule settles down, and I've got free time.

1) flare blitz
Luxray
Let's face it, this thing needs one more coverage move. crunch, superpower, and wild bolt/thunderbolt leaves it up to hidden power, and flare blitz could easily give it some physical coverage.

2) recover (and variants)
Lucario
often the problem I see with lucario is that it is too easily 2hko'ed, especially non-agility variants. sure, it would cost an extra moveslot, but shadow claw/close combat (for physical variants) or shadow ball/aura sphere (for special variants), provide unresisted coverage.
Snorlax
This thing needs slack off, which is what makes the specially defensive pink blob so more potent, due to wish/softboiled. Snorlax could work as a specially devensive offensive tank, and no longer has to rely on resttalk (which is very stupid to me because they can use rest again), Making it a more viable option in OU.

3. sucker punch
will update later.

4. trickery
will update later.

5. Tail glow
Luxray
sort of contradicts my earlier nomination, but Luxray with tail glow allows it to utilize it's special attacking options. It could run a T-bolt, Signal Beam/ Volt change, Hidden power set for a special attacking sweeper.

6. Aura sphere
Agirudaa
Gengar
Zoroark
Deoxys
will update later.

7. wood hammer
will update later.

8. Nasty Plot
Mewtwo
All right, come on. this thing is screaming Nasty plot. I hate using calm mind just to raise Sp.Atk, and just after one nasty plot, mewtwo can already start a monstrous sweep. a set of NP/Aura sphere/ Shadow ball/ Ice beam could be destructive.
Deoxys
Sazandora
Shanderaa
will update later.

9. Close Combat
will update later.

10. Drill liner
will update later.

#1) Flare Blitz
Moltres
Moltres is a commonly-used UU Pokemon who is predominantly used as a special sweeper. However, its base 100 Attack is something to consider as well. Moltres' attacking stats are very similar to Flareon's (switching both attacking stats, adding five to Attack and taking away five in Special Attack), and both are very powerful but doomed to limited movepools. Moltres has practically no physical movepool to speak of-- but add Flare Blitz and it could make a potent physical sweeper, if it could also get Drill Liner (which will be included later possibly). Moltres is also a viable mixed sweeper, with a Life Orb set of Flare Blitz/Air Slash/AncientPower or Drill Liner/Roost. AncientPower gives nice coverage and can raise your already-nice attacking stats, but Drill Liner gives opposing Rock-types something to think about, as well as having higher power.
Houndoom
Houndoom is also doomed (no pun intended) to nice mixed attacking stats, but poor physical STAB coverage. Its best physical Fire-type move, like Flareon's, is Fire Fang, which is mediocre at best. Houndoom's only other physical moves worth a mention are Thunder Fang and Pursuit, which don't provide great coverage or high power. However, a Life Orb set consisting of Flare Blitz/Sucker Punch/Pursuit/Roar or maybe Hidden Power Grass for some more versatility. Houndoom could be a great revenge killer if you slapped on a Scarf as well.
Baokki
Baokki would make an amazing user of this move, whether using Gluttony or Blaze (Dream World) on him. Liechi Berry for Gluttony could boost Baokki's physical moves to amazing power, and a boosted-STAB Flare Blitz going off of 98 base Attack is something to gawk at. Sadly, this fire monkey's physical movepool is limited to moves like Brick Break and Rock Slide for coverage. A mixed set utilizing Cheer Up could be used as well, considering both of Baokki's attacking stats are the same, and his special movepool isn't as barren.

#2) Recover/Slack Off/Softboiled/Roost
Snorlax
Snorlax could obviously use a quick-recovery move, since the only one he has is Rest, and he fits the label perfectly for Slack Off. After all, he is always sleeping.
Exeggutor
A Psychic-type Pokemon with a pre-evolution consisting of only eggs doesn't get Recover OR Softboiled? I think that says plenty.
Espeon
It has a magical orb on its head that can do, like, anything, EXCEPT heal it? Espeon, like many other Pokemon, has a lack of recovery other than Rest, but Recover could give it the boost it needs to be at least decent. It'll actually have enough turns to kill a thing or two.
Hypno
Hypno is doomed to NU due to mediocre stats galore, but its Special Defense is worth a mention. 85 HP backing up 115 Special Defense is very nice for something in the lowest tier, and as a Psychic type, it would make sense if it got Recover.
Lanturn
Lanturn is BEGGING for an instant-recovery move, since it is one of the best bulky waters of UU (next to Milotic, of course). If Lanturn could get Recover it'd be even better than Milotic due to its electric immunity.

#3) Sucker Punch
Meloetta-Step
Meloetta could have perfect neutral coverage if it had a nice Dark-type move, and what could be better to fit the label than Sucker Punch? Meloetta gets Payback, but it's not like it'll be slower than much with its base 128 Speed. STAB Close Combat and Sucker Punch coming off of base 128 Attack isn't anything to take lightly.
Hitmonchan
Hitmonchan is doomed to NU because anything that he can do, something else can do better. However, Hitmonchan gets Iron Fist from the Dream World and has a great variety of punching moves. Sucker Punch is not boosted, but is still a great move to have. Unresisted priority moves and boosted coverage moves make for a nice set.
Gallade
Gallade's lack of priority paired with a poor base 80 Speed puts him in the Borderline tier. Again, the unresisted duo of Fighting/Dark fits in nicely on anything, especially with such high Attack (three points below Meloetta-Step!) Gallade could get booted back into OU with enough utilization of Sucker Punch.

#4) Trickery
Skipping this one, as I don't know enough about the move to give viable users.

#5) Tail Glow
Ampharos
His tail has a super-duper bright orb on it. And he has great special attack. He deserves it D':
Raichu
Technically he doesn't need it since he can get Nasty Plot as a Pichu, but Tail Glow makes more sense imo. Apparently Tail Glow is supposed to give a +3 boost rather than +2 as well.
Yanmega
A potent Special Sweeper or a nice Baton Passer, Yanmega could get better at both of its roles with a boosting move like Tail Glow. Paired with Tinted Lens, it could break massive holes in several opposing Pokemon after a single boost. As a Baton Passer, Tail Glow and Speed Boost can make an instant sweeper if you survive (which you should long enough to get one boost from each).
Lanturn
It's a darn anglerfish! Who also has nice Special Attack. A set with Tail Glow/Surf/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam provides great coverage and has potential to be a powerhouse.

#6) Aura Sphere
Alakazam
Come on. The only Fighting-type moves he gets are HP Fighting and FOCUS BLAST. It fits perfectly, does it not?
Golduck
I always thought of Golduck as a Water/Psychic type for some reason. It has some psychic orb on its head, why can't it learn Aura Sphere?
Slowking
He fits in perfectly imo. Slowking and Alakazam both get Focus Blast (which is a very poor move to me). Trading 30 power for perfect accuracy is great.
Magnezone
Again, just a case of "it fits".
Mr. Mime
Not like anyone would use him if he got it, but hey, "it fits".

#7) Wood Hammer
Venusaur
With the addition of Growth doubling both offensive stats, he should be allowed a decent physical Grass-type move. I know he gets Power Whip as well, by the way, but you get the idea.
Tangrowth
See above.
Victreebel
...See above again.
Nidoqueen/Nidoking
They live in grass, don't they? They have huge, intimidating arms, don't they? 'nuff said.
Sceptile
Again, it gets Growth, it has viable mixed attacking stats, and it makes sense.
Shiftry
"I'm big, bad, and I'm made of wood." He needs it.
Breloom
BROOOOOOOOKEN but fitting.
Cacturne
Fitting, has the offensive stats to pull it off. He also gets Growth.
Cradily
It can get Body Slam, it should be able to use its giant head and neck to hit you.
Tropius
Same as Cradily, and he gets GROWTHGROWTHGROWTH.

Sorry for making this list of nominees so long by the way.

#8) Nasty Plot
Gengar
Totally broken, but fitting.
Alakazam
Same as above.
Shandera
He just wants it.
Skuntank
Fitting, could go well with his nice special movepool.
Tyranitar
95 Special Attack, good enough stats to use it.
Crawdaunt
Fitting.
Absol
For the sake of gimmicks.
Nidoqueen/Nidoking
Nidoking is notoriously used as a special attacker (from my experience at least), and Nasty Plot, well, fits.

#9) Close Combat
No nominations, everyone who needs the move gets it imo.

#10) Drill Liner
I am probably skipping this as well.

Adding votes/reasons later. :> Also, sorry for mostly sticking to UU Pokemon. I've never played any other metagame, and I don't want to learn OU/Uber just to come up with nominations for this. Also wondering how many Pokemon will be chosen for each move?

1) Flare Blitz
Flareon
Reason: IT'S FUCKING FLAREON
2) Recover/Slack Off/Softboiled/Roost
Snorlax (Slack Off)
Reasoning: Yeah. Curselax is currently cumbersome to use, what with shitty recovery in the form of rest, which takes up two turns opponents could use to whale on its defenses, which, while impressive, really can't take that abuse. If it had Slack Off, it would be ten times the pokemon it is right now, since it could dish out and take abuse as it pleased.

3) Sucker Punch
Tyranitar
Reasoning:
Says it better than I could.
9) Close Combat

Kirikizan
Reasoning:
Face it: Brick Break is weak. Sure, breaking through screens is nice, but there's nothing like drawback-free (sorta) 120 BP Fighting poundage. As it stands, I can't see Kirikizan becoming OU, what with that 70 base speed, but I think it could become UU with Dark/Fighting attacks at the 120 standard, backed by nearly-Absol level strength, steel typing, and not-terrible defense.

10) Drill Liner

Dodrio
Swellow

Reasoning: Because they walled by Steel-types and need to get around that to be good. So yeah. It's even plausible, Fearow got it.

Can I omit some nominations? I don't know enough about some of the moves to give an informed opinion. Assuming I can, this is my list:

1) Flare Blitz


It would give Wargle something to actually make use of Encourage, and something to differentiate him from all the other Normal/Flying-types. I'm not really sure what calcs would be relevant, so I'll add them in later.


I also support Groudon, but I really don't think there's any point in giving it to Flareon, as due to it's shit HP, shit speed and no priority, FB really won't make much of a difference to its usefulness.


I think Garchomp is also worth a test, but if it proves broken I'd say we should remove it.


2) Recover/Slack Off/Softboiled/Roost


Snorlax has wanted this move since forever. Having to rely on Rest, especially after its nerf, is crap. With his good Attack and access to Curse, Snorlax is a very different beast to Blissey, but is severely held back by his lack of instant recovery. Not to mention that he is all but designed for Slack Off.
188/104/216 Snorlax using Slack Off: 50% ;)


Stealth Rock weaknesses are shit. Ulgamoth is otherwise awesome. Recovery alleviates the problem, but presents moveslot prioritisation issues, so isn't overpowered.

Yanmega; see above.


The Regis should get it as well, as they sorely need instant recovery.

3) Sucker Punch


TTar; see The Smog



Weavile is pretty much the archtypeal user of this flavour-wise, and he needs a better STAB move than Night Slash and stronger priority than Ice Shard.


Machamp would also be good with this, as others have said.

4) Trickery

No nominees from me.

5) Tail Glow


I definitely support Gyarados, for reasons mentioned in the OP.

I think Yanmega could be good with it, but I think he's perfectly built for Butterfly Dance, if that comes up in a future poll, so for that reason, I'm not going to support him for TG.


I also support Ampharos for the reasons others have mentioned.


I'd also like to suporrt Raikou, as since he's an Electric-type it suits him fairly well, though with his 115/115 special offense TG might be OP on him; if this is the case, I suggest testing Nasty Plot, as the SpDef boost from CM doesn't really do anything for Raikou.


6) Aura Sphere


Alakazam needs this move more than anything else. Forget Stone Edge, Focus Blast is the worst move in the game, and Zam suits AS flavour-wise pretty well.


Yanmega could really do with a way to deal with Heatran, Lucario and the other 4x Bug-resistant Steel-types outside of HP Ground, which can be taken advantage of by Skarmory.

Modest SpecsMega's Aura Sphere vs:

252/0 Neutral Skarmory: 59.9% - 70.7% (HP Ground does... nothing)
Specially Defensive Skarmory: 40.7% - 48.2% (very likely to KO with Air Slash after SR and lefties)
252/252 Calm Heatran: 53.4% - 63.2% (guaranteed 2HKO with SR)
Choice Scarf Heatran = 97% minimum, almost guaranteed OHKO even without SR
252/252 +SpDef Lucario is never OHKO'd, but nobody runs that on Lucario, and offensive Luke is OHKO'd by a country mile.

Basically, it does everything HP Ground does, but better.


Latias and Latios could really do with a move to hit Steel-types supereffective. Surf and T-bolt supply similar neutral coverage, but they could really do with a way to hit some of their key resistors for SE damage. Flavour-wise, Aura Sphere has very Psychic connections, so it fits better than Flamethrower/Fire Blast. This could push one or both over the Uber barrier, though it's still worth a test IMO.


Azelf would be an absolutely excellent user of this move, making its Nasty Plot set that bit more viable, since he would no longer have to rely on HP Fighting for coverage, and he gets a power and accuracy boost to boot.


If Darkrai is found to be Uber without this move, I suggest we give him it. If he's found to be OU in its abscence, I think this would push him over the edge, so it should be avoided.

I'm unsure whether to give it to Gengar or not, as he's already a powerful OU poke, and AS would be something to differentiate 'Zam from 'Gar. I'm not voting against Gar, but not for him either.

As a side note, another thing we could do that would help a huge number of pokes without making them overpowered, is simply turn Focus Blast into a Fire Blast clone, with 85% accuracy. Currently, of all the 120BP moves, Focus Blast is the worst, since Thunder has more PP, 30% Para rate, and improves to 100% in Rain, while Blizzard does the same in Hail. There's no reason for FB (or Blizzard, outside of Hail increase) to be 70% accurate, so I propose the first thing we do for the changing-a-current-move part of this project is to improve Focus Blast's accuracy. I only say this here as most pokémon who want Aura Sphere currently have to make do with a shitty Focus Blast.

7) Wood Hammer

No nominations

8) Nasty Plot



Absol, for reasons mentioned by later persons (this is an edit)


Alakazam, because with his shit defences CM is pretty awful on him, but NP would be massively useful. A set of NP/{Psychic/Psycho Shock}/{Shadow Ball, Dark Pulse}/Aura Sphere would be awesome.


Gengar, since it suits him ridiculously well for flavour and it'd be massivele useful.


Tyranitar I don't think has been mentioned, but I think he could be a very interesting user of NP; currently, special sets are viable, but generally only for the surprise factor etc. With Nasty Plot, Timid 252 SpA TTar reaches 578 SpA, while Modest gets him to 634. And as we all know, TTar's special movepool is awesome. This could be very interesting for mixed sets with Sucker Punch as well. And it makes sense given TTar's Dark typing.
A very out-there suggestion with no real flavour base is Kingdra; currently, Kingdra's physical sets are more or less better at everything than his special sets. But Nasty Plot could change this; ChestoDD would still be exclusively physical, but Double Dance would be outclassed by NP+RD, as in Rain Kingdra doesn't need the speed boost from DD at all. This would allow Kingdra to be more unpredictable, as currently, if Kingdra comes out, 9 times out of 10 it's DD/Waterfall/Outrage/{Rest/Substitute/Rain Dance}, much of the time the final slot being given away by the hold item. Kingdra maybe fits Tail Glow slightly better flavour-wise, but tbh neither really fit, this is purely for competitive reasons, and I think TG could be too overpowered, so Nasty Plot it is.


Raikou, if TG is overpowered.


Latios (and to a slightly lesser extent Latias) would love this move, but I suspect it may push him over the line into Ubers, especially with Aura Sphere as well. Still, it might be interesting to test.

9) Close Combat


Dragonite; see The Smog.


Weavile; Weavile really needs some love. Currently all his moves are totally underpowered, and since he's paper thin anyway, the defense drops don't really hurt him.


Absol; somebody else gave reasons for this, which I support.


10) Drill Liner

No nominations.

I might add some more later.

@ ODD: I disagree about your example because 5 is a low grade here in Brazil :).

Anyway:

1#) Flare Blitz

Skuntank:
Have someone seen skuntank's physical movepool? It literally sucks. Only Poison and Dark moves to abuse, as well Explosion. He really needs it. I can also imagine him ckoaking himself with the fire he oozes from his tail and attacking with it. It could finally outclass Drapion. A simple set consisting of Sucker Punch, Pursuit, Fire Blitz and Explosion could turn him in an OU top threat.

Flareon:
Well, he's going to learn it anyway...

Camerupt:
Yes, EdgeQuake is a good combo, but with Flare Blitz, He wold open holes in lots of unprepaired teams, especially under Trick Room.

Zeburaika:
The forgotten zebra. His best attacking moves rae Wild Bolt and Return. Now with Flare Blitz he would be awesome. Quick note: he learns Nitro Charge, which is a weaker Flare Blitz.

Genosect
See Zeburaika.

Donphan
See Camerupt.

Groudon
Fire punch is meh, and Edgequake is innefective against Skarmory and Natty somewhat. Flare Blitz in sun KOes Lugia.

Houndoom
Kipp said everything.

2#) Recover and its variants

Regirock:
It's a shame that Regirock doesn't get Recover, even when his pokédex entries say that he can recover his health via putting rocks in his body. This is Recover.

Lapras:
Gastrodon is a sea slug and can learn Recover. Lapras is a sea slug too, but can't learn Recover. Recover Lapras would be a beast.

Tentacruel:
See Lapras, but change the words Gastrodon and sea slug to Burungeru and jellyfish.

Exeggutor:
Softboiled because he came from a dozen of eggs.

Golduck
Bulky enough to take sime hits. Recover also fits well with a duck.

Spiritomb
I think that it would be game breaking, but he needs some test.

Muk
For the flavor of a puddle of mud recovering since more mud will be added. Muk is quite bulky too.

Goruggu
See Muk and switch mud for clay.

Jirachi
Could make a fantastic wall or tank with its all 100 stats.

Snorlax
See Flareon.

Baffuron
Milk Drink. Buffalo milk is better than cow's. And fits with the flavor very well.

Wargle
No Roost? What a shame. He's bulky, so why noy?

3#) Sucker Punch

Machamp:
Payback isn't the best way of getting rid of Ghosts and Psychichs since most of them are faster and and can KO Machamp. Sucker Punch would be a welcome bonus.

Tyranitar:
See Flareon.

Weavile:
Night Slash is too weak.

Zuruzukin:
He should learn it. He is slow unless he Dragon Dances. And with that Overconfidence... it's too much lust for me.

Goruggo
Slow and Iron Fist. I love this thing.

Pinsir
Because Heracross can't. And Pursuit is weak sometimes.

Gyarados
There isn't a criteria for learning Sucker Punch (Electrode). Gyarados can fit well, fucking that Scarf pokémon and Psycho-Ghosts with Thunderbolt.

Crawdaunt
See Zuruzukin and ignore Overconfidence. Quick note: Adaptability SP is 160. Scary...

Waruvial
See Zuruzukin and ignore DD.

Muk
Shadow Sneak is too weak.

4#) Trickery

Umbreon
I still don't know how Trickery works, but I suppose that is a physical Dark move with 95 BP which is boosted by how greater the foe's attack stat is. Umbreon is Dark and has low attack, making a viable user.

Barujina
See Umbreon

5#) Tail Glow

Zekrom
Come on, his tail glows. No one can deny.

Illumise
For those who aren't aware, Illumise's SpA is higher than Volbeat's one, and she also gets Mischevious Heart and Baton Pass. And she's a firefly.

Ampharos
See Flareon.

Pikachu
I'm surprised that Sugimori didn't give it to Pikachu already.

Charizard
Tail glows with fire. And 100 SpA is also usable.

Reshiram
See the first phrase above.

Umbreon
The dex says that it can glow... but is just flavor

Phione
Manaphy's offspring.

Dragonite
odd explained everything. And Dragonair used it in the anime.

6#) Aura Sphere

Kyurem
Feelings Pokémon. And he has a bad to shitty movepool.

Gengar
See Flareon.

Meloetta
Bah, I don't like her, but since she can transform into a Fighting form, it should be useful for the Psychic form...

Alakazam
Flavor, and Focus Blast is miserable.

Spiritomb
Ghost + Fighting = unresisted. He also has an aura. Dark aura, but has it.

Lati@s
Fits well with flavor. And Tyranitar won't be a problem anymore.

Darkrai
See Shiftry.

Gardevoir
See Lati@s. And Kirlia has some sort of Fighting move that makes her evolve to Gallade.

Shiftry
See Spiritomb.

7#) Wood Hammer

Carnivine
Fuck Power Whip.

Cacturne
See Lapras, but switch the words sea slug and Gastrodon for cactus and Marakacchi.

Roobushin
If I remember, Dokkora or whatever his name is has a log. Enough flavor to me.

Shiftry
Still don't understand why he is Grass since Tengu are birds, but since GF gave this mediocre typing to him, at least Wood Hammer.

Sceptile
There are sometimes that Leaf Blade isn't enough to kill something.

Mebukijika
Wood Horn is weak.

8#) Nasty Plot

Gengar
See Flareon

Banette
For the perfect flavor possible.

Kokoromori
Behind that derp face there is a high skilled and pervert brain that thinks bad things. +4 if you add with Simple.

Clefable
Fuck Calm Mind. And if the sweety Togekiss can be depraved, why Clefable can't?

Alakazam
5000 IQ and no Nasty Plot...

Metagross
It has a supercomputer in his brain. Smart enough to use Nasty Plot. Special Metagross is sometimes unexpected too.

Gardevoir
Gardevoir makes some men have Nasty Plots with her, if you understand me...

Shedinja
Baton Pass, my pals. And he has some flavor with it.

9#) Close Combat

Shuckle
The best troll EVER. Perversity Shuckle using a Taunt immune Cosmic Power is a pain in the ass to take down.

Wargle/Honchkrow
SUPERPOWER SUCKS!!! Staraptor can use it and he doesn't even learn Superpower. Thanks to the unfairness, GF.

Zuruzukin
I've never meet anyone from ghetto that isn't skilled at close combating. It's better than Hi Jump Kick.

Kirikizan
Darkamber888 explained everything.

Goruggo
A detail that sometimes is forgotten: Iron Fist boosts the power of Close Combat (Hitmoncham, you bastard).

Roobushin
Read Wargle/Honchkrow

Banette
Shadow Claw, Return, Faint Attack, Gunk Shot. This is Banette's offensive movepool. Any other reason?

Spinda
See Shuckle.

10#) Drill Liner

Beedrill
My holy God, how the world is unfair. The Drill Bee doesn't learn a Drill move.

Honchkrow/Xatu/Zapdos/Skarmory
Learning Drill Peck is enough to me, and all them can use this attack very well.
EDIT: Fuck you Dodrio! Let Fearow shine for this time!

Shurabugo
He could use that spears like some sort of drill. He also has a bad movepool.

Lapras
Horn Drill is enough to me. DD Drill liner is good agaisnt Nattorei, Emppoleon, Burunga and Dialga.

Cloyster
Someone explained and I liked the explanation, but I don't remember who was.

Zekrom
Thanks Frost Nocturne.

Kabutops

The way Dory is using Drill Liner is similar to how Kabutops could use it. And it gets no Ground move.

1) Flare Blitz - I personally think this move is distributed enough (expect Entie needs it( iagree with the post saying Flareon needs more than just Blitz to improve))
2) Recover/Slack Off/Softboiled/Roost
Snorlax - It just fits, Shuckle - it just fits well with its movesets enables it to play the annoyer much more xD
3) Sucker Punch
No one, the move is adequate with where it is
4) Trickery - No one, as it seems a little too gimmicky
5) Tail Glow - Ampharos, it needs a brilliant move like this, also any pkmn witha glowing tail (Charmander's evo's, pikachus evo, etc.)
6) Aura Sphere - Gengar for the reasons mentioned above
7) Wood Hammer - Not a good enough move to be considered imo
8) Nasty Plot - Absol, fits in with the disaster pkmn, plus enbles an effective mixed set
9) Close Combat - Absol again, improves on super power, and is a brilliant move one 'hit and run' pkmn like scarf absol
10) Drill Liner - Any beaked pkm (even Farfetch'd) it just improves the coverage of normal/flying, which isn't a bad thing
