# Arrowvolt

\-A 80 base power physical Electric move with no real drawback to rival the special Thunderbolt. It has a high crit ratio and does not make contact, making it great for Guts Luxray, Electivire, as well as Flying coverage for Decidueye. Most Electric Pokémon get access to this move, as well as other Pokémon like Decidueye, Octillery, Magmortar and Clawitzer, known for firing projectiles at targets.

# Rivet Volley

\-A Steel-type Scale Shot that lowers the user’s Sp.Def instead of their Defense. Multi-strike moves are always good, and Pokémon like Mega Mawile and Scizor foam at the mouth when they can get a STAB move that increases Speed. This also gives more options for other Pokémon, like using Loaded Dice Aggron or Tyranitar with Rock Blast and Rivet Volley. Most Steel Pokémon get this move, as well as Pokémon said to be ‘armored’ like Tyranitar.

# Numb-The-Pain

\-A status move that halves the damage of the next incoming attack. If the target does not use a damaging move against you, it restores 20% of your Maximum HP. This move really just does one thing that I thought of, and that is to add more ways to incorporate Weakness Policy into team comps. It also can help with Abilities like Rattled or Steam Engine where you need to take damage from a certain type of attack. This move is more niche but it can really pay off if the prediction hits. This is a tutor move that most any Pokémon can learn, but is learned naturally by Pokémon with good control like Medicham, Lucario, and Mienshao, as well as Pokémon who can ignore pain like Slowbro.
