Ideas for New Moves

[terrorkid94]

There’s a thread for new megas and new evolutions so I thought it was about for moves to get some love

Here are my two ideas for new moves

Corrosive Acid
Type Poison
Category Special
PP 15
Power 70
Accuracy 100%
Effect- Corrosive Acid deals damage and has a 10% chance to badly poison the foe. If used on a Steel-Type Pokemon this move ignores the type effectiveness of this move’s type against Steel and treats it as being super effective against Steel types instead ( even during Inverse Battle and even if its type is changed ) The type effectiveness of Corrosive Acid against any other types the target has is determined normally

Flirtatious Kiss
Type Fairy
Category Physical
PP 15
Power 50
Accuracy 95%
Effect- Flirtatious Kiss deals damage and has a secondary effect based on the gender of the foe. If used on a Pokemon of the opposite gender that pokemon becomes infatuated and its attack drops by two stages. If used on a Pokemon of the same gender that pokemon becomes confused and its attack increases by two stages. If used on a genderless pokemon there is no secondary effect

Post your ideas for new moves or critique them

I think a move that has attraction as a secondary effect would be pretty interesting. I'm surprised that it hasn't been done already.

I had a few ideas in mind:

Squeezing Hug:
Type: Fairy
Category: Physical
PP: 15
Power: 60
Accuracy: 100
Effect: 15% to cause the target to flinch.

Basically, another physical fairy type attack for possible low level physical Fairy type attackers.

Mercury Cannon:
Type: Steel
Category: Special
PP: 10
Power: 80
Accuracy: 100
Effect: 20% to inflict Poison status on the opponent.

Metal Fang:
Type: Steel
Category: Physical
PP: 20
Power: 65
Accuracy: 95
Effect: 10% chance to Flinch the enemy and/or 10% chance to increase Defense stat by one stage.

Dust Storm:
Type: Ground
Category: Special
PP: 10
Power: 80
Accuracy: 100
Effect: 15% chance to reduce the enemy's accuracy by one stage.

Heroic Charge:
Type: Fighting
Category: Physical
PP: 5

I am absolutely IN LOVE with both of these moves, especially Mercury Cannon! It sounds like it could be a signature move of either a starter or a legendary Pokémon.

I would like to see something like your radioactive blast idea that leaves target with a burn but is a poison move. It'd shake up the paradigm. That would be a good theme for a fire/poison move if nintendo decided to explore the typing
