I'd hit you with my splash attack. Yes, this was needed.

Extremespeed is cool. Due to my Wurmple/Caterpie solo runs, I now have a deep hatred for Tackle.

HATE: anything causing confusedness, as stated above, 4 turns in a row the pokemon hits istelf, and it's always in important battles. *Pulls out hair*

Like: Lovely Kiss lol

As much as I hate to spoil your fun (read: not at all), this thread really belongs in the Poke Center. Frankly, I'm surprised it hasn't been moved/locked/whatever yet.

Well, it seems as though wishes were granted. It's now in the Pokemon Center.

Favorite: Present. So ****ing amazing.

Hate: Stone Edge. Such a good move, but such horrid accuracy. Obviously this is a love/hate relationship. :(

Love: Present. Gotta agree with Writer here. Pretty epic move.

Hate: Confuse ray. I have had a lv 100 Giratina lose to some trainer's lv 40 scrub (in-game, in the route next to survival area) because I hit myself in confusion the maximum amount of times in a row. Such a ****ing annoying move.

Favourite: Eruption (mostly when Typhlosion uses) or Thunder punch.

Hate: Confuse ray probably. It's very annoying and my Pokemon keeps on hitting itself to death.

Stamping your library books.
Favorite: Flamethrower. The thought of my Pokemon spewing fire all over my foe makes me :)

Least: Stealth Rocks. How many Pokemon became just about unusable because of it?

I have two faves: Aeroblast because of its attack animation on 2nd Gen, and Sacred Fire because it totally rocks!!

Splash=useless, and who even uses Growl and Tail Whip anymore??

I really don't have a favorite, but I have least favorites:

1. Anything that causes confusion
2. Attract
3. Double Team

IMO they are all the lamest attacks ever conceived by Gamefreak.

I unno really either. I just think all gay moves, and random critical hits (lolcrithax) are categorized as"hax".
Random misses are too, and in some cases there's that whole "live by 1% when both are on your last Pokemon" thing that can be considered hax.

I should know, I've fallen victim to it quite a few times. :(

This probably deserves a thread of its own.

"Hax attacks" are usually attacks that use luck to screw over your opponent; Confuse Ray, DynamicPunch, Serene Grace Air Slash. Thunder Wave isn't really regarded as a "hax attack" since it's main use is slowing down opponents.

"Hax" is luck. Being frozen 12 turns in a row, 3 crits in a row, 5 Stone Edge misses, rolling min damage, losing speed ties, are all considered hax.

Don't forget Quick Claw Curselax :)

FP from Thunder Wave makes it haxxy, although not nearly as haxxy as Confuse Ray. (Although they pale in comparison to 5 Cross Chop misses in a row...)

I second that motion to make this its own thread.
