Um, see I'm not trying tro start an edit war about wether {{m|Surf}} is a variation of {{m|Flamethrower}} or not, but I just noticed it is. The thing is, I know the othe variations can cause status problems unlike Surf, but then I see no reason why {{m|Ice Beam}} is counted as a variation, because it has 10 PP, and not 15 like the others, including Surf.

:That is the reason behind the discussion taking place on the forums. Last time it was discussed, a 5PP difference was deemed acceptably similar, however status chance required no variation. Some people, including several staff members, feel that it is too lenient and so the discussion was started. We'll continue to use the previous decision until a new one is made. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 00:40, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Actually, I tell you, according to me, if you can accept a 5 PP difference, then certainly you can accept an absence of a secondary effect. What I'm saying is, either both {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Ice Beam}} are variations of {{m|Flamethrower}}, or none of the two. [[User:PSinha|PSinha]] 07:45, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
: P.S. Hey, isn't Surf an awesome move? (Along with its ''variations'', of course)
