Gives 'em the slip..
Move: Throw Salt
Type: Normal (physical)
Power: 20 (no contact, no King's Rock, both opponents)
Accuracy: 100%
PP: 20
Description: A superstitious move that is said to seal evil. Sprinkle liberally.
Effect: Dark type Pokemon hit by the attack are paralyzed, unless they have the ability Limber. Ghost type Pokemon hit by the attack are frozen, unless they have the ability Magma Armor or are also part Ice type. If the opponent is both Ghost and Dark types, then it is frozen, unless it has the ability Magma Armor. Pokemon with the ability Wonder Guard are unaffected by this attack.
I've always wanted an attack like this. It would be the first move to inflict the freeze status 100% of the time, except that you need Foresight or Scrappy to pull it off. Would put Spiritomb in it's place.
Maybe as a TM given before going into a dungeon with Ghost types, like the Pokemon Tower in Lavender Town. Level-up move by superstitious Pokemon like Absol, Murkrow line, ones that learn Lucky Chant, etc.
Move: Vex
Type: Ghost (other)
Power: --
Accuracy: 100%
PP: 10
Description: The user curses the foe into losing more PP per use.
Effect: Volatile status; the recipient Pokemon loses 3 PP instead of 1 per move use during their turn. Switching ends the effect, also ends if the opponent Pokemon runs out of PP.
Spite losses 1 more PP, Pressure removes 1 less, so this is a nice compromise. Level-up move learned by those lovely Ghost types and their respective ilk.
