Notice how I didn't mention characters at all. (

) Yes, I know about competitive Melee.
Think more along the lines of competitive Pokemon for custom moves. Every pokemon can have a ton of different moves. The Pokemon that are used the most are the ones with good moves. (of course theres more to good pokemon than their moveset but its still an important part) If a Pokemon can't learn good moves than its not good so no one uses them competitively. My favorite pokemon team is Sceptile, Swellow, Torkoal, Rayquaza, Lanturn, and Metagross. All of those pokemon suck and no one uses them competitively. Except Rayquaza and maybe Metagross idk. I didn't know much about competitive pokemon when I made that team. I was a low level player. I still am haha. My X and Y team is Chesnaught, Florges, Dragalge, Aurorus, Charizard, and Mewtwo. That is not a good team. Those pokemon can't learn good moves (other than Mewtwo and Charizard) and they aren't strong enough. If I cared about being a good competitive player I'd look online and find out what pokemon are the best. Then I'd figure out what their best moves are and I'd use them. (of course theres breeding and iv training but you can't really do that in smash
) So if I figure out what the best moves are I'm not going to want to use poor moves like leer and pound. If I figure out the best moves I will win. If I figure out what the best custom moves are in smash I won't use the inferior ones.
