== Rollout ==
I think the animation for Team Rocket's Graveler using Rollout should be added to the Journeys section. [[User:YoungMan16|YoungMan16]] ([[User talk:YoungMan16|talk]]) 18:09, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
== Transform ==
I think Mew using Transform in Journeys should be added. [[User:YoungMan16|YoungMan16]] ([[User talk:YoungMan16|talk]]) 07:12, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
== Thunder Punch ==
Someone should add Leon's Charizard using Thunder Punch in the Journeys section

== Mewtwo using Shadow Ball ==
Since Mewtwo's picture for Shadow Ball is from Journeys, it should be put in the JN section and the OS should be replaced by Harrison's Sneasel using the technique. [[User:YoungMan16|YoungMan16]] ([[User talk:YoungMan16|talk]]) 17:57, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
== Torracat using Fire Blast ==
Someone should put Ash's Torracat using Fire Blast on here. --[[User:YoungMan16|YoungMan16]] ([[User talk:YoungMan16|talk]]) 20:05, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
==Transform Journeys==
Have uploaded an image of Transform being used in Journeys. Kublock Ditto Transform.png--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 21:52, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
Sleep Powder Journeys==
With Sleep Powder being a move with unique animation, thought we could use Goh Oddish Sleep Powder.png for the journeys image.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 09:56, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
== Other generation with unique move animations ==
Someone should add moves from other generations here, like the elemental Fangs, Dark Pulse, stuff like that. --[[User:YoungMan16|YoungMan16]] ([[User talk:YoungMan16|talk]]) 07:28, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

== Huntail's moves ==
I have some evidence for the identities of the moves that were used by a wild Huntail in JN063.<br>
1) Rock Tomb is the only Rock move Huntail can learn, and it's identical to how Leon's Charizard used it: rocks with white energy outlines are sent flying at the opponent.<br>
2) Crunch's animation is also identical to the previous uses of the move from Journeys: the user creates yellow jaws of energy and uses them to bite the opponent. I even compared it to the one use of Bite that Journeys has had, and it was different from that. With Bite, the user releases the biting jaws of energy at the opponent. With Crunch, the energy jaws are not fired off.<br>--[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 16:49, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
:1)Sounds like your argument for Rock Slide for Aerodactyl (a ring of rocks forming in the user's immediate vicinity and then being hurled at the opponent). Could've also been Rock Throw or Stone Edge. If that isn't evident enough for you that it's not a very distinct animation, then I don;t know what will.
:2)... no explanation needed. It's a basic biting move. Could've been either one of them.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#00A1E9">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#59C2F1">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#BF004F">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#D5598C">ire</span>]] 16:55, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
::1) And that argument for Aerodactyl was approved. Huntail can't learn Rock Throw, and Stone Edge has been portrayed as stone pillars coming out of the ground since the XY series, including in Journeys.
::2) I said that I compared Bite and Crunch's animations, and there are some key differences. Even "generic biting moves" have telltale differences if you look hard enough.
::--[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 20:52, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
:::1) The point was, you used the very exact argument for Rock Slide as you are for Rock Tomb. You can't tell me your description for two separate moves being exactly the same makes it unique. Both argument basically boil down to "user summon rocks and throws them at the opponent". Aerodactly being approved has no bearings on whether this will be approved. And the animators can make it use Rock throw or Stone Edge if they wanted to, they don't have to follow the games. And as much as you don't like me using it, [[anime move errors]] are a thing. There has been plenty of precedence to not take moves at face value.
:::2) It's still a generic biting move, regardless of how many fancy effects the animators give it. It's still a set of teeth biting the opponent. It could still be Bite. As for the fancy animation, well maybe the animator wanted to showcase Huntail's strength so made Bite's animation fancier or was told by the director to make it look stronger because it was used by a stronger Pokemon. '''We just don't know''' and you can't assume you know what the animators intentions were.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#00A1E9">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#59C2F1">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#BF004F">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#D5598C">ire</span>]] 07:20, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
== Rock Slide (Diamond & Pearl series) ==
I think that for Rock Slide's DP section, you should use File:Alan Nosepass Rock Slide 3. --[[User:YoungMan16|YoungMan16]] ([[User talk:YoungMan16|talk]]) 23:55, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
== Ice Punch ==
Does Ice Punch always leave some sort of ice on the opponent, even if the opponent doesn't fully freeze? If so, the description should add that to make it more clear what makes the animation unique. Otherwise, the description of a blue energy punch paired with images of a blue energy punch looks too similar to some depictions of other glowing punches such as Focus Punch and Mach Punch.
