As seen above, Typhlosion's Pokedex entries often hint at some kind of explosive attack. As of yet, the only attack that comes even close is Overheat- and that's still a long ways off.Pokemon Silver and Pokemon FireRed said:
Throughout most of the 3rd gen, Typhlosion has been a pretty sub-standard fire type, yet back in the day it could learn Thunderpunch, a move that was reasonably powerful, and could counter its main weakness: Water.
Emerald brought this move back, but D/P are likely going to make Thunderpunch run off its less-powerful Physical attack.
The Pokedex hints that Typhlosion creates its explosions by use of static electricity, and Discharge seems to be very fitting as an explosive attack- hurting all Pokemon on the field.
With the ability to already learn one Electric attack, and a new attack that fits Typlosions abilities perfectly, could Discharge be Generation IV's answer to a Special Electric attack for our beloved fire-weasel monster?
