No. Speed stats is a measure of the pokemon's reaction speed, not movement speed.

Reaction speed would be evasion.
Bouffalant already gets Head Charge. Also, all recoil from moves should get canceled rather than having Fur Coat as an ability.
Bouff doesn't get Head SMASH (the rock-type one) though.
No, evasion is how well you can dodge. In actuality, reaction speed would affect evasion and accuracy, but that would make this too luck-based so it isn't done.
im pretty sure in one of outrage's animation (i believe gen 4) is it spouting out flames, so it should be a fire move
That's not flavor text, so this isn't the place for it, unfortunately.
Swoobat
WhiteAnyone who comes into contact with the ultrasonic waves emitted by a courting male experiences a positive mood shift.
If a male swoobat uses attract it works regardless of the opposing pokemon's gender?
BlackIt emits sound waves of various frequencies from its nose including some powerful enough to destroy rocks.
Swoobats sound moves are super effective against rock types?
Throh
WhiteWhen they encounter foes bigger than themselves, they try to throw them. They always travel in packs of five.
When going up against larger pokemon, they have to use throwing moves, and when you use a throh, you have to use 5 at one time?
XWhen it tightens its belt, it becomes stronger. Wild Throh use vines to weave their own belts.
Grass moves also cause it to get stronger?
Leavanny.
It keeps its eggs warm with heat from fermenting leaves. It also uses leaves to make warm wrappings for Sewaddle.
If it uses a grass type move, all Sewaddle take half damage from ice types? (Because it's warmer?)
Venipede.
Its bite injects a potent poison, enough to paralyze large bird Pokémon that try to prey on it.
If it bites anything smaller then the largest bird pokemon, it inflicts a status of both poison and paralysis?

Furfrou
X: Trimming its fluffy fur not only makes it more elegant but also increases the swiftness of its movements
Exchanges Thick Fur for Speed Boost if it's hit by a move involving cutting?
Dragalge
X: Their poison is strong enough to eat through the hull of a tanker, and they spit it indiscriminately at anything that enters their territory.
Poison-type moves have neutral coverage again Steel types?
Eelektross
Black:They crawl out of the ocean using their arms. They will attack prey on shore and immediately drag it into the ocean.
Direct contact moves add Water-typing to the target?
Vivillon
Y: The patterns on this Pokémon’s wings depend on the climate and topography of its habitat. It scatters colorful scales.
Vivillion gets Marvel Scale?

Ok, so not counting nve pokemon then.
Medicham.
FR LG It elegantly avoids attacks with dance-like steps, then launches a devastating blow in the same motion.
If an attack against Medicham misses, then Medicham's next attack does 1.2 damage?
Swalot.
Ruby. When Swalot spots prey, it spurts out a hideously toxic fluid from its pores and sprays the target. Once the prey has weakened, this Pokémon gulps it down whole with its cavernous mouth.
Swallow should be an attacking move against weakened pokemon? Maybe instant k.o if the target is at less then 25%? (Also, maybe instant poison when it first sees a new pokemon?)
Edit: On second thought, if you let swallow still heal swalot as well as finish off the opponent, then it maybe it could serve as a poison staller, with protect to aid down in dwindling the foes health, and also slightly scaring switch outs with auto toxic.

Gastrodon
Pokemon Diamond: It has a pliable body without any bones. If any part of its body is torn off, it grows right back
Gastrodon gets Regenerator
Jumpluff
Pokemon Emerald: Jumpluff ride warm southern winds to cross the sea and fly to foreign lands. This Pokémon lands when it encounters cold air while it is floating.
When Jumpluff gets hit by a ice type move or if it is hailing, it loses its flying type

Sharpedo.
RubyNicknamed "the bully of the sea," Sharpedo is widely feared. Its cruel fangs grow back immediately if they snap off. Just one of these Pokémon can thoroughly tear apart a supertanker.
If Sharpedo is at -1 attack or less, it goes back up to 0?
Wailord.
XIt can sometimes knock out opponents with the shock created by breaching and crashing its big body onto the water.
There's a chance that the opposing pokemon will faint if Wailord uses dive, splash, bounce, or heavy slam?
Camerupt.
SapphireThe humps on Camerupt's back are formed by a transformation of its bones. They sometimes blast out molten magma. This Pokémon apparently erupts often when it is enraged.
If Camerupt is taunted or otherwise "angered", it automatically uses eruption? Would getting hit by a crit also trigger this rage, as implied by abilities like anger point?
Grumpig.
DiamondIt uses black pearls to amplify its psycho-power. It does an odd dance to gain control over foes.
Pearl
Platinum
HeartGoldIt can perform odd dance steps to influence foes. Its style of dancing became hugely popular overseas.
Grumpig clearly deserves to know teeter dance. (Not that teeter dance would actually help Grumpig much)

@Piloswine: "It just keeps charging"
"Piloswine used charge."
"Piloswine's Special Defense Rose."
"Piloswine used charge..."
@Cloyster... so Bulletproof?
Cept it only works for bomb moves.
Comments in bold.
I was thinking that malamar would just inflict the opposing pokemon with confusion as a way to simulate the control. Malamar gets confuse ray and inflicts a non-curable confusion till switched out?
I'd say no to non curable confusion, as that kind of luck dependence takes the skill out of the game, similar to Klefki.
Blissey
Pokemon Gold: Anyone who takes even one bite of Blissey's egg becomes unfailingly caring and pleasant to everyone.
If Blissey is attacked by a biting move, then the attacker's attack stat drops by 1 stage (Play nice decreases attack)

Monte Cristo
Banned deucer.
Contact moves make foes' further attacks unable to damage anything. Resets upon swithing
It already has that in static.
Oo, this looks like fun.
Avalugg:
(X) Its ice-covered body is as hard as steel. Its cumbersome frame crushes anything that stands in its way.
Secondary Steel-typing and equipped with Rollout/Body Slam.
Manaphy:
(Pearl) Water makes up 80% of its body. This Pokémon is easily affected by its environment.
Equipped with Forecast and Weather Ball.
Emboar:
(B2&W2) A flaring beard of fire is proof that it is fired up. It is adept at using many different moves.
Equipped with Mimic, Me First, and Copycat.

Klefki- "These key collectors threaten any attackers by fiercely jingling their keys at them"
Wouldn't that give Klefki Intimidate?
Wouldn't that give Klefki Intimidate?
Maybe I'm interpreting this wrong, but shouldn't it be rough skin? It threatens attackers with the chance of being hurt by the keys? (You know, like the rough part)
