Introducing Contest Movesets

[Snow Fairy Sugar]

Okay, Jack allowed me to make this thread. Basically, this is going to be a sort of "Chat Thread" where we (Me, Lan, Robert, jack) and some others I'm going to ask for help later. We're going to discuss ideal move-sets for Pokemon, that can earn stars.

In a tough Contest, Salamence (Ability Intimidate) uses roar, and no other pokemon has a counter-ability, then he'll get five stars. and in a compatible contest, like smart, or cool, he'll get three-four stars. I'm working on that, I'll get it ready by Saturday, hopefully.

Right now, DG has submitted some :

Hyper Cutter - Cut/Slash/maybe Scratch. Better Cutter, better cutting

CompoundEyes/Keen Eye - Mind Read . To read mind, they have to look, and with a better eye they look better

Cute Charm - Attract . Have the same effect in battle( Perhaps in contests with Cute Charm Attract gets an extra bonus of making nervous, like 5/10%)

Speed Boost - Quick attack/Agility. All up to speed(always become first, even if used second)

Thick Fat - Belly Drum

White Smoke - Smokescreen

Illuminate - Spark.I remember the animation in game makes the area brighter

Static/LightningRod - any electric attack

Damp - Explosion/Selfdestruct.

Inner Focus - Focus Energy . stay focused

Rain Dish/Swift Swim - Rain Dance

Chlorophyll - Solarbeam . They need sunshine

I'm going to look through them and edit/add some later, if Jack allows. Oh, and if you have any contributions/want to help, just PM one of us, okay? Preferably Jack, because he's the URPG captain. :P

EDIT : Here's another example...

Sunny Day(Ability) + Morning Sun should get five stars, lol. Meh, I'll try to sort the stuff, I'm not good at movesets, and stuff, but hopefully, I should get everything down by the weekend.

In fact, i said that it worked as opposite, it made those moves earn less if used.

[Jack of Clovers]

Well, even opposites can work as + points. In the anime, Chimecho used Heal Bell, then Screech after that. The judges loved the contrast between the two moves and Jessie received 100%.

As I promised, here you go. Of course, I'm not sure how many starts they should get, but it's up to you.

These are some movesets, where I don't know how many points they deserve, let Jack decide.

Unclassified Movesets
1)Roar + Intimidate (Tough Contests)

2)Sunny Day + Morning Sun. (Beauty)

I think this should earn three stars in sunny weather, four in normal weather, and five in Rainy Weather.

3)Dragon Dance + Dragon Breath + Dragon Rage. [Tough/cool]

4)Rain Dance + Hydro Pump + HM Surf. (Smart)

5)Extreme Speed (Ability) + Quick attack + Agility (Cool/Smart)

6)Icy Wind + Ice Beam + Sheer Cold. (Tough)

7)Defense Curl + Take Down (Smart)

Rain Dance + Swift Swim and some others are going to come. I'm thinking of some moves, that can counter and cancel these starts, like Sheer Cold, during a Dragon game. :o

I'll just try and get the rest up in a few minutes...

I didn't know Extreme Speed was an ability, i thought is was a Move.

[Flightspace]

Extremespeed isn't an ability, it's a move.

Complementing moves, contrasting moves.
Note: For some of these I am considering the fact that the Pokemon is making the appeal to the judge - which means that abilities such as Rivalry would actually boost moves such as Attract and Charm.
