>>55111250>Highly situationalYeah, one of the strongest priority moves in the game that most physical attackers will use if they have it is just “situational”.
>Status movesAnd? Still Dark moves.
>Signature moveAnd? It’s still a good Dark move. Is Astral Barrage not a good ghost move because it’s a signature move?
>specifically has an ability that makes it strong.Except that it’d still be one of the best moves of all time even without Sharpness boost. Also Smeargle uses it, proving the point that it’s a good move on its own.
>It's bad. People don't even run Flamethrower over Fire Blast if they can help it, and Flamethrower is stronger than Dark Pulse.A. Plenty of people run Flamethrower over Fire Blast on plenty of Pokemon
B. There is no Dark type Fire Blast so this point is pointless
C. Even if Fire Blast did outclass Flamethrower entirely, it doesn’t mean Flamethrower is bad by any means
>See abovesee above
>Would not be considered a good move at all if it wasn't on an incredibly strong PokemonYou can literally say this about any fucking move, retard.
>It's a slightly better Dark Pulse. Not bad, but it's also signature and stuck on a mediocre Pokemon.Ok and?
Also this contradicts your last point about Kowtow Cleave “only being good because its stuck on a broken Pokemon” bullshit.
>It's like Close Combat if Close Combat was 20% weakerExcept that it also bypasses protect, doesn’t make contact, and only drops 1 stat instead of 2.
It’s also a dark type move so it’s better coverage too.
>Very strong, but it's also a signature moveAnd?
>These are status movesAnd?
>good moveI’m glad you agree and aren’t acting like a retard anymore
>Signature to Incineroar againMultiple Pokemon were able to learn Darkest Lariat in prior generations. This at least confirms you’re full of shit that didn’t bother looking shit up
>It’s the same thing as Super Fang.Except that nothing is immune to it and doesn’t make contact.
