V-create (move)

V-create (Japanese: Ｖジェネレート V-generate) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation V. It is debatably one of Victini's signature moves, the other being Searing Shot. Unlike Searing Shot, however, V-create is an event-exclusive move.

User	First Used In		Notes
	Victini clenches its fists together and multiple tiny orbs of fire appear around Victini's face and spin around it. The orbs then disappear and three streams of red-yellow fire appear, two along side the edges of Victini's ears and one going up in between the two. The small streams of fire then merge so that Victini's ears are covered in a red-yellow fire in the shape of a 'V'. The fire bursts off, leaving behind a blazing yellow fire around its ears. Victini's body also starts to glow red and its eyes glow blue. Victini then flies forward and slams its body into the opponent. When the attack makes contact, a huge explosion occurs.

Trivia

Artwork of Victini using V-create

• V-create has the highest power of all Template:Type2 moves.

  • If a Template:Type2 Pokémon has the Ability Adaptability (which is not possible without Skill Swap), is holding a Fire Gem, and uses V-create against a Pokémon that has a double weakness to Fire (such as Abomasnow) while it is sunny, the move will reach an effective power of 3240.
    • And if the target is a Paras or a Parasect with the ability Dry Skin, the power will be 4050, the highest possible.
• This move is one of Victini's animations in Pokédex 3D.
