Slate 2 Results! 
Move Name: Swarm Attack
Typing:
BP: 20
PP: 10 (Max 16)
Accuracy: 90
Secondary Effects / Effects: Inflicts damage, hitting the target up to three times per use. Its base power will increase by 10 with each successive strike, so the first, second, and third strikes have powers of 20, 30 and 40, respectively. Each hit has a 10% chance to decrease def by 1.
Suggested Distribution:
Line (They're also known for swarming things so it fits)
This move's main purpose is to be a stronger bug stab than hidden power while still giving Megahorn it's place as the best bug move. It's multi hit nature is both a blessing and a curse. Since it has an accuracy check for each hit (Like triple kick or the future triple axel), It's effective accuracy is 73%, which is just slightly more accurate than thunder (And the future focus blast). However, each hit also has a chance to lower the target's def, giving it an effective 27% chance to do so (Again, similar to thunder's 30% paralysis rate). This can be great for forcing switches. Not to mention, each hit also has a separate chance to crit with a rate of about 19 percent. All this leads to a fun and unpredictable yet reliable move to use. It's flavor is mostly just based on swarms of bugs. I would think that the Pokémon using this move calls a swarm of bugs to help them attack or attacks as if they were part of a swarm.Also thank god technician doesn't exist yet
Move Name: Black Hole
Typing: Dark
BP: 100
PP: 5/6/7/8
Accuracy: 100
Secondary Effects: Sets a 'Black Hole timer' for 3 turns. After 3 turns, both active Pokemon are damaged by the move. Damage is calculated with halved Special Defense and it isn't affected by STAB.
Suggested Distribution:
Pretty cool Perish Song/Future Sight/Explosion hybrid. It has the same timer as Perish Song, can't be blocked like Future Sight and has its power doubled like Explosion. This move does require the right team support to use, as you will need a Pokemon able to survive the Black Hole (as Future Sight doesn't block Protect, so it has to take the damage, but, like Future Sight this gen, it doesn't get a STAB boost).
Move Name: Parry
Typing:
BP: -
PP: 8
Accuracy: -
Effect: When used, the text “x is attempting to Parry!” will pop up at the start of a turn, if the move fails the text “But x failed to parry!”.
When hit by a move, the damage is reduced by 20-30%, and the user uses one of their other 3 moves, akin to SleepTalk.
If this move fails, another PP is drained from the move.
Known Bug: If this move is called by Sleep Talk, even when the user is faster, the failstate is still achieved, making stalling with the two moves fail and just draining PP from Sleep Talk.
The move functions like Protect/Detect in the sense that repeated uses have a chance to outright fail with the chances of success halving each successful attempt.
Suggested Distribution:
The Parry, a tried and true fighting game mechanic found in some of the greatest--It's a move that can put you into extreme advantage or give you a chance of pivoting momentum back in your favor.
All 'mons sans Machamp can struggle a lot in OU and require too much support to really feasibly be put on a team, but, with the ability to Parry, they can turn a number of situations where they'd simply be 2HKO'd(due to crummy defensive stats) to instead be 3HKO'd instead, the list includes all Cross Chop applicable 'mons(hence Machamps inclusion), as well as all 3 of the hitmons, and allows them to carve out their own niches even when compared to one another.
As a small example, Machamp is slower, while Primeape is faster, in situations where Machamp is 2HKO'd, he can choose to parry on either of his turns to instead be 3HKO'd, while Primeape can be even OHKO'd! Thankfully with a parry, this can change, and using their speed they can instead threaten their own 2HKO.
This is simply scratching the surface with the move. reducing damage and having more lefties recovery is always nice, but when used in a way to stall, the PP is drained. Not entirely impossible strategy but unintelligent abuse is discouraged.
The flavor of this move is the user taking the brunt of the attack with their palm in a defensive stance, and quickly countering with their own move.

you deal big damage, might also punish Leftovers healing the target above 50 HP. also punishes healing
Signature Item Name: Draco Light
Effect: If held by Mareep, Flaaffy or Ampharos, They gain the resistances of the dragon type.
Signature Item Name: Thunder Dome
Effect: If the holder is Elekid or Electabuzz, grants their first offensive Electric move on switch-in +1 priority.
Description: I kept these relatively simple. What you need to know is that this is an attempt to experiment more with strong priority, with each Pokemon having some very intriguing targets to go up against (Starmie and the occasional Aerodactyl for the former, Jynx and Aroofaondo for the latter, Gengar for both). There's also an element of strategy to picking the right time to use your one priority STAB per switch-in: Fire it off immediately or wait it out while using your coverage in the meantime? Magmar is likely overall benefitted a lot more, but that's fine as Electabuzz was already somewhat useableish in OU to begin with.
