To vote, simply bold the moves you want allowed. Leave the others as they are. Allowed and Unallowed moves can be found here. However, if you have no strong feelings either for or against a move, you may abstain entirely from voting for it by not adding it to your vote. Your vote must have at least 6 moves for it to be valid though.

Over Heat over Fire Blast because I hope it will keep people away, yet still gives them a powerful option if they truly need it.

It was pretty much decided that both Fire and Water moves together would be bad together, so I support Fire Moves to maintain its counters.

Focus Punch gives it an option to hit Blissey, Snorlax, and Tyranitar, but isn't doing much else off 60 Atk. Vacuum Wave gives it priority, but it's weak and won't do too much damage to anything really.

Fire Blast and Vacuum Wave do too much methinks. Lava Plume is fire-exclusive, lets not mess with it. Everything else is sweet, sweet coverage.

I see nothing wrong with all the fire/water moves, Lava Plume is useless and fire-exclusive so no point for it. The fighting moves gives way too much coverage and can potentially 2HKO Blissey/Snorlax, too cheap on CAP8.

Also, what's with all the Fire Blast hate? Nothing that learns Flamethrower doesn't learn Fire Blast and so there's no reason not to have FB too.
