Not a bite move?

It seems like it should be, is this an oversight or accurate? Pallukun (talk) 21:58, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Well, the description says that it's a stab with the beak, and other moves that are too (e. g. Peck, Pluck, Beak Blast) aren't biting moves. So by that logic, Bolt Beak shouldn't be either. - unsigned comment from ThighFish (talkcontribs)

Should this move be considered a signature move?

Even though this move is usable by Dracozolt and Arctozolt, there are two things to consider. One is that, for example, Nature's Madness, is considered the Tapus' signature move, even though it's not exclusive to a single evolutionary line, so classification as a signature move isn't limited to moves usable by only one evolutionary line, aside from Smeargle via Sketch. Second, we must consider the move's lore. Since the Gen 8 fossils are technically fusions of ancient Pokemon via incorrect reconstruction, rather than actual ancient Pokemon, as all previous fossils are, and Dracozolt and Arctozolt were made with the same head fossil, and this move is executed with the head, there was presumably only one ancient Pokemon able to use it. Thus, I think it should be considered a signature move, and likewise with Fishious Rend. ThighFish (talk) 01:39, 16 October 2020 (UTC)ThighFish

While I agree with this logic and would suggest adding that, I don't think many of the mods would agree. Pallukun (talk) 23:48, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
