Why can't physical electic types get volt tackle? Why is the best move locked behind this shillmon POS? Imagine how much better mons like electivire, tapu Koko, and luxray would be if they didn't only have shitty wild charge.

Better yet, why can't physical electric Pokemon get a STAB move that doesn't hurt them?

Volt Tackle is fine as Pikachu's exclusive move but there also should be something better than Wild Charge or Thunder Punch.

Considering that Ash's Pikachu doesn't even know the move anymore, I don't see any reason to keep Volt Tackle exclusive to the Pikachu line.

It's odd Bros. It's almost like GF is scared to make physical electic types worth using. It's not as though they would be broken by any means if they had a good reliable stab.

I care, Because there is no good reason all of the other physical electic types should be without a better option. You know it's bad when the majority of physical mons in this category run thunderbolt.

If I touch you with a burning match, what's actually hurting you, the matchstick or the fire?

It's made clear that the power behind the elemental punches comes from the punch itself, the elemental attributes are just a side effect.

Given that the fire wouldn't exist without the match stick I'd say both. Here's my question, if I punched you in the teeth for being an annoying retard would you cry or shit your pants?

If the elemental attributes are just a side effect, then they would be like Tri Attack and be normal type, with a chance to cause their status.
It's clear that the majority of damage from them is coming from the elemental side, especially with the fact that Mega Punch exists and does more damage.

Depends how hard you flick it, better still, throw a burning log at you, you're going to get burned by both the flames and the burning wood., damage from the burning wood, burn sttatus from the flames, easy.

It's a fire type move. The damage is being done by the fire. So it should be special.

You're setting your fist on fire and ramming it at force into someone. The blow is physical, the after effects (singed retard and burned skin) wouldn't occur without that fist to the gob though.

No, it's the first doing the damage. The fire is secondary.

Sacred Fire being physical doesn't make sense, but Ho-Oh has higher Attack than Special Attack, so it gets a pass. Same deal with most of the Pokemon that learn Wring Out being special attackers.

Yes.

Of course. Bite is a dark move for a reason. It's sneaky and underhanded, and takes SPECIAL skill to bite just the right spot to make your opponent flinch.

If the fist is the main part and the fire is secondary, then why is it a fire-type move?
Shouldn't the elemental punches be normal or fighting type moves with a chance to burn, freeze, or paralyze by your logic?
