In this thread we make suggestions on how to change some of the repetitive or poor moves in the games. I'm all for changing moves, rather than just removing them.

Here's a few ideas to start off with:

>Detect
Works like Protect still, but now raises your Evasion +1 if you successfully dodge an attack (does not give you the boost if the opponent does not directly attack you). Z-Detect now gives you a +1 Speed boost, not +1 Evasion

>Razor Wind
Now can hit behind substitutes

>Barrage
Power increased to 25bp (from 15) and is now learned by more Pokemon than just the Exeggcute line (I picture mons like Passimian and Octillery having this)

>Bubble Beam
Goes back to having a 30% chance of lowering Speed, like Gen I

>Egg Bomb
Now can destroy screens similarly to Brick Break

>Pledge moves
Now available to ANY Grass, Fire, or Water type Pokemon

>Octazooka
Accuracy raised to 95% (from 85%)
