Yes it doesJokes aside... Does Focus Energy pass by Baton Pass? It gets NP, Focus Energy and SD, it's a potention Baton Passer right there

Yeah. This one. Look at the first post.Theres a Thread with all new moves?
"New" moves, not "movepool changes"Yeah. This one. Look at the first post.
The Manaphy of UUMRW Bibarel can get +3 with one swords dance and suddenly needs to be taken seriously for once.
He gets +4 after an SD, and now gets aqua jetThe Manaphy of UU
...checks Bibarel's stats...
The Manaphy of NU
It's still a step up from being terrible in PU plus now he's the second best early route rodent lol.
Are you aware that Burn Up cant be used at all if you aren't Fire Type?Arcanine doesn't suffer too much from the lack of fire STAB, in part because Burn Up is still a high BP special move that unlike Flare Blitz, has no recoil, and unlike Overheat, doesn't cripple his offensive presence after one use.
I do think Burn Up Arcanine would be great, as it basically becomes a pokemon with no Weakness' with intimidate Very tankyI'm feeling really bullish on BSS bulky Arcanine. Burn Up is an AMAZING move for Arcanine since it allows it to eject its sometimes bothersome mono-fire type and the annoying ground/rock weaknesses that come with it.

Even without burn up, it matches up fairly well against both Pheromosa and Kartana who will be prime threats in singles. If it has removed its fire type, physical Garchomp actually can't do anything to it. The burn nerf does hurt its viability against some threats like M-Mence and M-Kanga though.
When was that said?Are you aware that Burn Up cant be used at all if you aren't Fire Type?
It was in the research thread. If you aren't Fire, the move fails, so it effectively can't be used twice. So your Specs set isn't a great idea. Edit: here http://www.smogon.com/forums/thread...chanics-research.3586701/page-12#post-7078730When was that said?
Ah ok. So you would probably need to run 2 fire moves to us it effectively, so Choice sets are bad.It was in the research thread.

I think Choiced sets would rather run Fire Blast instead for reliability. I know Burn Up is a freakin' nuke but Blaze Fire Blast still hits hard enough.Ah ok. So you would probably need to run 2 fire moves to us it effectively, so Choice sets are bad.
I do want to use this move on Typlosion. Its the fastest fire type with this. Maybe lead with eruption, and if you are low and just need another fire nuke you use Burn up.
Yeah that can work. Typhlosion has some decent coverage with Extrasensory and Focus Blast. Last move sadly has to be hidden power grass or solar beam on a sunny team. Shame it doesn't get too many special movesI think Choiced sets would rather run Fire Blast instead for reliability. I know Burn Up is a freakin' nuke but Blaze Fire Blast still hits hard enough.
Maybe Life Orb/Expert Belt sets can effectively run Burn Up? STAB nuke on the first turn then use coverage moves after while having no weaknesses defensively.
yeah, I was thinking about the SR weakness making it hard to switch in multiple times. :/Uhm... isn't Burn Up's one-use property exactly why you'd use it on a Choice set, as a hit-and-run move?
I understand a Stealth Rock weakness makes it unappealing, but not more unappealing than it on a non-Choice set IMO (and it's not unappealing in that circumnstance).
https://projectpokemon.org/research/sunmoon/learnsets.txtExcuse me if this has been asked before, but is there a list of all Pokémon that have changed movepools since ORAS? By that, I also mean changes of learning levels (not only additional moves). As an example, Zubat has its ordering changed now learning Leech Life at level 31 instead of level 1.
I know about that one file but it lists all new movesets. I'm particularly interested in movesets that have changed since ORAS.
You'd be better off using Overheat in that case - same power, but with Overheat you can attack again if you need to. Using Burn Up means you have no choice but to either switch or flail in futility.Uhm... isn't Burn Up's one-use property exactly why you'd use it on a Choice set, as a hit-and-run move?
