I could picture what foresight looked like but all I was coming up with was "forclosure" which I know perfectly well isn't a move. And, Rachel24601, you should really put a warning about what generation this quiz is based off of somewhere.

More than just Castform can learn Weather Ball, I'm pretty sure Victreebell, Raikou, Roserade and more get it.

That is a lie. Mew does NOT learn Weather Ball, Sacred Fire, Aeroblast, Judgement, Shadow Force, Roar of Time, Spacial Rend, etc.

Mew can only learn moves that can be taught by TM's, tutors and by its level uo moveset

Mew learns every TM, not every move. Smeargle comes closest to learning every move by learning every move except Chatter and Struggle through Sketch. Therefore, it gets a STAB judgement, and can learn all the other moves.

Also, Metronome can be nice sometimes allowing Mew to USE every move in the game, just not LEARN every move.

Based on the fact Sketch is on here, Smeargle can also learn Weather Ball.

For Zorua that's just it's ability. But yes, Mew can also Transform.

Maybe it didn't exist as a move back when the quiz maker started pretending that no new Pokemon were "real".

In the anime, voltorb is the one that uses self-destruct most of the time, whereas electrode does indeed use explosion.

I wouldn't say tackle is a favourite of Rattatas. All I could come up with was growl, scratch, and super fang. Does Rattata even know Tackle?

Fake tears is a fairy type move not dark so plese change that.
+1
Level 52
Oct 17, 2023
No, Fake Tears has always been a dark type move. You might be thinking of Baby-Doll Eyes, which is a Fairy type status move that lowers Sp.Atk

Nice quiz! I made my own, too! It contains all 742 moves from the main series games! You should try it out! https://www.jetpunk.com/user-quizzes/238536/all-pokemon-moves-quiz

Also, the move Thief, when used, will always take the opponent's item.

I don't think Foresight actually increases the user's evasiveness. It "removes" the target's evasiveness (or negates it somehow).

Assist’s description should be changed; it can also be used in single battles; leaving it to double battles only is kind of misleading

-Weather Ball is learnt by many different Pokémon, and it doesn't change any condition, it adapts to the current weather.

-Assist can be used in single battles as well.

-Fake Tears lowers special defense.

-Thief doesn't have a 40% chance of stealing opponent's item: it either does or doesn't, depending if the user has an item or not.

-Foresight doesn't raise evasiveness, it only bypasses the accuracy check.

I know I'm being a nerd, but I don't like this many mistakes when the quiz is featured. If it were just a standalone quiz, I'd have no problem with it.

This comment will probably not matter anyway, considering this quiz hasn't been updated in nearly a decade, but it was worth trying.
