Night Slash?

[Wake]

Night Slash
Base Power: 70
Accuracy: 100
PP: 15
Type: Dark
Move Type: Physical
Effects: High Critical-Hit Ratio

Man this attack seems awesome, it's the Dark, more powerful version of Razor Leaf.

Pokemon like Weavile, Absol, Honchkrow, etc. can learn it with STAB. Anyone ever think about using a poke with it?

I've got a hot set for Absol with it, IMO:

Absol @ (Possibly Liechi Berry?)
Adamant Nature (252 ATK, 252 SPD, 4 HP)

- Night Slash
- Swords Dance
- Hidden Power [Flying]
- Stone Edge

Basically a physical sweeper, counters weaknesses pretty well too. What do you guys think about the move and Absol? :P

Good luck about using HP on absol. You will need it. Also, if you haven't noticed yet, there's slash which is a normal version of night slash. It has been there since RBY... Also, don't make discussions about things that remained the same/aren't really a new idea. It's okay to make toxic spikes, me first, punish or stealth rock discussions, but, come on! It's just a freaking dark type slash! Also, if you want to have a Absol discussion, make it better laid out. Give moves learned, stats, abilities and stuff.

Hidden Power from Absol's 75 Special Attack isn't scaring much of anything.

Unfortunately I am going to have to further perpetuate my Mr. Bad Guy stereotype and "agree with" the latter portion of mastadi's post. This isn't a nearly unique enough move to warrant its own thread, sorry dude =/
