- Looks legit. Feel free to update both of the articles, BW090 and BW091. Also, thanks for sharing the information. Adyniz — Wanna talk? 12:41, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Error in Trip's strategy?
As explained by Cilan in BW091, Trip, with Serperior, uses Leer to lower defense, and then SolarBeam to take out the Pokémon in one hit. Alder calls it "truly a well calculated battle setup" when Trip repeats the tactic in BW091. But SolarBeam is Special, so Leer shouldn't make the attack stronger.

- Sounds like a case of the animated series not being completely faithful to the games' ideas of types and categories of moves. Could be something to be added as trivia on the page. Thespeon196 (talk) 20:59, 13 October 2025 (UTC)
- Yeah, perhaps. Though, move categories do exist in the anime. Just seven episodes earlier, in Ash's battle against Roxie, Dent says that Ash used Energy Ball to lower Koffing's Special Defense so that "the special attack Energy Ball" would deal even more damage the next time Ash used Energy Ball.
