I wonder how many physical Pokemon would become viable if elemental crunches/stronger variants of the elemental fangs existed and were tutor moves.

The punches and Wild Charge would be nice.
Rock Slide is good enough already.
Everything else listed would be dumb.
You forgot Poison Fang.

Rock's buffs need to be in accuracy.
Shit doesn't need to be a jobber type.

Rock slide needs a buff because there's nothing in-between it and Stone Edge BP wise.
You either run a sub-par damaging move or a move that never hits and has 5pp

>not wanting to buff shadow claw because its the only decent physical ghost move that's not two-turns, but still at a poor 75 bp
>not wanting to buff the elemental fangs because they're the only coverage some pokemon even get and they're a very shitty 65 pb
>not wanting to buff spark, because it's also at the shitty 65 pb, while also being one of the very few physical electric moves

have you ever considered that some moves are designed for ingame play rather than competitive play?
also why would they buff rock slide when it's already great in doubles?

then there should be new moves that are stronger versions.

It makes sense for tackle to be weak when there's a plethora of stronger physical normal attacks.

Or when you consider that the access to Flamethrower, Ice Beam and Thunderbolt is fucking massive and there's no physical equivalents.

Or do you really think that Phantom force should be the only non-exclusive ghost type move above 75bp and the strongest non-exclusive physical electric move should by a 90pb recoil move?
