Availability in Gen IX

Can anyone confirm this move is available in Gen IX by transferring a Mew in via Home? The article currently says it's metronome only, but I don't believe that is the case.Link (talk) 04:30, 8 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Does all defensive stat changes include negative ones?

Or does it also ignore the target's defense being lowered? --Shadowater (talk) 05:43, 29 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

TRIVIA: Darkest Lariat is not a Lariat (as animated in the Gen 7 games)

It's actually a clothesline. A very unconventional clothesline, but a clothesline nonetheless. The difference is a clothesline keeps the arm straight out your side, whereas a lariat usually involves swinging the arm around in the shoulder socket. Incineroar is practically T-posed when he performs the move. ShylokVakarian (talk) 22:51, 17 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Ignore this, wrestling moves are too damn confusing to figure out. - unsigned comment from ShylokVakarian (talkcontribs)
Technically, it's probably neither, seeing how utterly devoid of spinning real clotheslines and lariats are. ShylokVakarian (talk) 23:00, 17 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

DD?

Does anyone know what the DD in the Japanese name stands for? --Kahran042 (talk) 17:48, 9 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Anime images

I've noticed we have two images of Incineroar using Darkest Lariat in the anime, both during Journeys. To me and I'll happily change my mind if others disagree, it feels pointless having an image of the same Pokemon (albeit under the ownership of two different characters) using the same move in the same series.--BigDocFan, Junior Admin Bulbapedia (talk) 14:14, 26 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

I agree, yeah. The animation is the same even for different Incineroar, so it would just get cluttered with similar images. There's other move pages that use more than one picture for the same species, such as Rolling Kick, so it could also be looked at. Shinka (talk) 16:33, 26 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
