>Goh's Scorbunny, they innovated Ember by using its feet to build up friction, create Heat, and then kick a rock to do a makeshift pyro ball. It had a conceptFor starters, Scorbunny charged up Ember to modify its output. This is literally the foundation of what Nyahoja is doing. Secondly, Scorbunny magically transferred Ember to the rock. Flames don't stick to a rock like that without it being a certain kind of rock or coated in a certain kind of material. Ember just isn't the kind of move to do this. That's enchantment. But it's the Scorbunny line, them kicking fireballs around is their theme, so it can be looked past to a degree. Still less reasonable than a 'big leafage', though.
>But literally asking the Pokémon to do a 'strong' attack, with that simple verbiage completely changing the nature of the attackIt was not "that simple verbiage". The words initially used were different, the enunciation played a role, and they were each given in specific contexts that made the intention and need clear to Nyahoja.
>with no prior practice?They did have practice, that was exactly what Kabu was there for. To give them a safer environment to figure it out, to guide them towards understanding this method. If you're complaining about the speed Nyahoja initially learned it, Nyahoja took about 5 seconds to fire a 'big' Leafage at first. The second time it took about 3 seconds. If this is still too fast for you, I kind of agree, but anime can't really afford to dedicate long stretches of screentime towards training on basic moves. Plebs just don't want the slow burn, even though they gladly spend years of their life wasting away their vigor and wealth in casinos, mmorpgs, and twitch chatrooms.
