In Power Room, if Volcarona switchs in, it insta dies if Rocks are up. Even at Max HP. Isn't Power Room a little cheap?
Allure
Ghost
Draws the user in to a dark area and confuses them.
Gives confusion and lowers Acc. 1 stage.
Might as well put some of the least used competitive statuses together.
Darklord, when Flareon runs Overheat, you run it to OHKO something that you wouldn't normally harm. When you have netted the surprise OHKO, you have basically done your job.
Current Hunt: Golurk (Dragonspiral Tower 2F) / Desert Resort
500 REs
115 REs (Switch areas after 500 REs)
Move name: Burning Coals (or something)
Type: Fire
Target: Status (Entry hazard)
Effect: A single layer of burning coals is laid at the opponents feet. 20% of causing a Burn condition, 20% chance of inflicting 1/4 of the affected Pokémon's total HP, 30% chance of not inflicting any damage, and a 30% chance of inflicting 1/8 of their total HP. Is removed by Rapid Spin, and Water-typed moves. If a Water typed move is used to rid the effect, however, it will lower the accuracy of your opponents moves by 20% for three turns. Fire-types, Pokémon with Water Veil, Flying types, and Pokémon with Levitate are unaffected by the entry hazard part, however they are affected by the accuracy drop, unless they have a Keen Eye.

i understand that. but the fact that its so frail, has a mediocre SpA stat, an abyssmal speed stat, and low defense means it would just get wrecked. it cant keep switching in and out, and if running overheat, its best bet is a mixed set. work up with it is redundant and a waste of a moveslot, as you have to use 2 just to get back to ±0.
It'd be a waste of moveslot, unless you were running something like, fire fang/overheat/superpower/bite. even then, you'd still have to switch out and risk sr damage, or LO recoil, or god knows what else.
besides which, what can it ohko with its mediocre SpA that is liable to stay in, or switch in on it? no sane trainer will keep any type of nve type in on it, for risk of a se move.
if it got flare blitz, well...id think it may bump up to ru. though thats a stretch. entei, arcanine, and heatran all outclass it. it'd probably just be another scarf/banded poke in nu/ru
New Move alert!
New Move: Aura Defense
Type:/ Power: -- / Accuracy: --% / PP: 10 / Target: Self / Category:
/ Priority: +4
"The user predicts all incoming attacks to sharply raise the users Defense or Sp. Def stats, It fails if the target is not readying an attack, however."
- Aura Defense increases the user's Defense or Special Defense stat by two stages depending on whether the move used affects Physical or Special Defense and unlike other stat boosting moves this has priority. It fails only if the Foe(s) are not readying an attack.
Credit for helping me with this move goes to: thedarklord2155 , Wishing Star and TurboMechaElgyem

New Move: Hemorrhage
Type:/ Power: -- / Accuracy: --% / PP: 10 / Target: Self / Category:
/ Priority: ±0
"The user gives itself a brain hemorrhage, which sharply raises both speed, Attack, and Special Attack, but in contrast sharply lowers both Defense and Special Defense, as well as sapping 1/8 health of user. This move's effects can be passed on by baton pass, but health will not go down for the reciever. Haze negates the boosts and drops, but leaves the health-sapping effect in place."
- Hemorrhage gives the user a Hemorrhage, taking 1/8 of its health for the period in which the pokemon is on the field. as an added effect, it increases both atk and SpA by 2 stages, increases speed by 2, and decreases both defenses by 2 stages.
I like, I like. But don't you think a Water Type would fit this move more rather than Fighting? Considering a hemorrhage involves blood.
I really like the concept you have there, i think Heats shards as the name has a better sound to it.

Eh, too complex in my opinion. I'd personally just have it be an entry hazard that lasts for a finite amount of turns, and any Pokémon that switches in has a 50% or so chance to become burned or something. But that may just be me.
Priority four-stage net increase in stats? That's extremely powerful.
Now if its accuracy were reduced, it'd be less powerful.
Alternatively:
Aura Defense v.02
Type: Fighting / Power: -- / Accuracy: -- / PP: 10 / Target: Self / Category: Status / Priority: +2
- Increases the user's Defense and Sp. Def by one stage each every time the user is hit this turn.
Hemorrhage...? Let alone giving yourself one? o_o;''
Anyway, while I don't particularly like moves that have a lot of effects like these, by no means do I personally think it's that broken. Yeah, you get +2 Attack, Sp. Atk, and Speed, but you get -2 Defense and Sp. Def, and pseudo-Poison along with it, which balances it out.
I do think that the Baton Pass recipient should retain the pseudo-Poison, though. It only makes sense that the entire effect of the move stays.
Don't you think your version of the move is even more powerful? If a Pokemon uses a a multi-hit attack and gets 5 times then you've just increased your defense and Sp.Def by 5 stages in just one turn. O_O
Not to mention the whole concept of the move is to predict, then protect yourself for the attack so having the Pokemon raise it's defense and Sp.Defense after you get hit kinda defeats the purpose.
Revamped version: Aura Defense v.03
New Move: Aura Defense
Type:/ Power: -- / Accuracy: --% / PP: 10 / Target: Self / Category:
/ Priority: +2*(if the foe(s) uses an attacking move)
"The user predicts all incoming attacks to sharply raise the users Defense and Sp. Def stats, if the foe(s) is not readying an attack the user my fails to go first"
- Aura Defense increases the user's Defense and Special Defense stat by two stages. but unlike other stat boosting moves this has priority. It has priority only if the Foe(s) are readying an attack but other than that it has 0 priority.
So what do you think of this version, Wishing star? It's kinda like a combination of Sucker Punch and a stat boosting move

thats...fair....er. make it like, fail if user doesnt attack, like sucker punch. basically, now, you are guaranteed to get a +2/+2 boost, while all the opponent can do to balance it out is taunt, haze, or boost with nasty plot, or swords dance. even then, you still have other boosts, easily replacing amnesia and barrier.
pokemon that get it: mew, lucario, riolu, any others?
hemorrhage: basically, i took the idea of curse(ghost type), combined with sun boosted growth, combined with close combat's effects. basically, when you have a hemorrhage, you dont normally think straight. hence, it was born :P
pokemon that get: haxorus, any others?
Hmm, yeah. But you could say the same thing about Iron Barbs and Rough Skin, too. If a Cinccino with used Tail Slap used Skill Link on a Ferrothorn, then... well, you know what'd happen.
Basically everything thedarklord2155 said. If the foe also sets up on the same turn, you still get a net +4 stat increase, which is extremely good.Revamped version: Aura Defense v.03

I also agree that making it fail if the foe doesn't target the user would balance it out a bit more.
Cotton Guard is an exception to the standards of stat-boosting moves, evident from the net stat increase and from how few Pokémon get the move. Moves such as Cotton Guard, Tail Glow, and Shell Smash shouldn't make up as much of all stat-increasing moves as moves like Meditate and Nasty Plot, let alone be given to a diverse pool of Pokémon.
Well, let's see. The user predicts all incoming attacks and raises its defensive stats upon prediction, right? So the defensive stats should only be raised if any Pokémon are targeting the user. If not, then the move fails.
Don't get me wrong; I love the idea, and it would make opponents think twice before going on the offensive. But I feel that getting +2 Defense and Sp. Def is just a bit too powerful.
.....or you could just go with what both of us suggested :/
even with that, you are guaranteed to get a boost. if they attack, it wont do crap, being +2 in the respective field, physical or special. just make it +2 priority, and only effective when being attacked. a net +4 is very good, and getting +2 priority to it? yeah....
Yeah I will give you credit as well, sorry. But I will make the priority to +4 then so it can out prioritize Fake out.

^here's what I think it should do:
Lets say pokemon 1 uses aura defense and targets pokemon 2 (it would only target one pokemon).
Pokemon 2 chooses to attack.
Aura defense will check what move the pokemon used to attack it.
If pokemon 2 launches a physical attack at pokemon 1, the aura defense will raise defense
If a special attack, sp defense will be raised
If a status (or not aiming at pokemon 1 at all), aura defense will have no effect.
This could be exploited in doubles, as a field hitting move from one of your pokemon while the other uses aura defense could give it a free defense boost. However, in order to balance it out.
A 1/2 effective attack means aura defense gives +1 increses to either defense
A neutrally effective attack gives +2
x2 effective +3
x4 effective +4
Immune or 1/4 damage no boost.
