what moves or attacks do think Pokemon shouldn't know or be able to learn? Post them here. Here are mine:

Double team:Two words. Hell Annoying. Two double teams, and its basically impossible to hit.
Explosion:Can you say cheap? 250 base damage. Calculate that with full attack evs. can you say:Blissys a gonner!!

spikes on skarmory.... that thing ruins netbattle.
For the win...

Substitute. Broken beyond relief. And returned WITHOUT the learnability treatment that TMs like Reflect suffered. Thanks a lot, Nintendo...
 
Yeah, spikes is SO annoying it is ridiculous. (I use Cloyster as a spiker so I can't talk...)
Substitute and Baton Pass and Aromatherapy. Substitute is by far the most common move on Netbattle by FAR. I once had a whole team all with substitute. If substitute did not exist life would be so much better. Substitute on Ninjask is very annoying. Same goes for Breloom, Jolteon, Umbreon, Deoxys-L, Lugia, Milktank, etc. Baton pass is pretty much invincible if you do not have a counter for it. Aromatherapy is so common nowadays that status conditions mean nothing in competitive battling now. Nentendo could at least give Aromatherapy less PP or something.
 

Absol!

Sea Ruby Trainer
Double-Team: so annoying. When I was facing Juan for the Rain Badge, Kingdra used DT so many times I was at breaking point. As it happned, Kingdra did no damage to my Pokemon (in fact, I got out of battle with all Pokemon at full health, no items used :)) and Thunderbolt from Manectric OHk'd him.

Toxic: self-explanatory.

Leech Seed: see above.

Hyper Beam: so terrible no one in the right state of mind would use it...

I got a new one. And its ingrain. It recovers health, but when you use it, you can't switch. In my neighborhood, every Pokemon that could use ingrain would know it. I didn't do it, so my fire team was top-notch. I tried using an ingrainer, but it resulted my in a humiliating loss. Ingrain, a move that nutcases use.

OHKO moves. Fissure, Sheer Cold, Horn drill. We only need ONE, not three (unless I've missed one out...)

5 PP is as low as you go 0_0 Excluding Sketch, of course.

Glowstick_cult: You forgot Guillotine =D

Personally, I think Double Team just needs to stop existing. Toxic and Hyper BEam aren't that good, but at least they're Standard on some things. Double Team is Standard on nothing and for good reason. Most idiotic move ever and glorified by every last nube who joins NetBattle. I'd say Minimize, but barely anything learns it. Everything gets Double Team ._.

Anyone who dislikes Substitute most likely hasn't ever used a Slaking, Armaldo, or a Marowak before :)

I agree about Double Team. I never use it, it's too cheap.

Never been fond of Confuse Ray, Harden, Rest/Snore/Dream Eater, and those obnoxious moves that "inflatuate" you or whatever the word is...
