---- 120 base power moves with huge risk moves give recoil moves lower stats. stuff like that this where i see them fit in 

Dig - Damage is increased by 120 (thou if someone quakes while someone uguus its instant kill)

Dive - Damage is increased by 120 (thou if someone surf while your diving instant kill)

Fly - Damage is increased by 120 (thou hit by hurricane/thunder instant kill)

Phantom Force - Damage is increased by 120 (if your pokemon misses it dies) 

 

- 150 base moves require recharge-

I like see more moves like Hyper beam. and giga impact, with more different types

 

Edit:

what you to notice something about suggestion here.. all heavy attack/special attack attacks all have base power of 90. on paper it looks completely even and balanced. then what really should be based on is stats/type coverage.  now player has to think if they pokes can cover do they want special or honestly i like see more lightening type Pokemon with more coverage then constantly replying on hidden power fill the the gaps

Why should we stop here? I think we should change the base stats for every Pokemon flat 100 for every stat and change types and type effectiveness until each Pokemon in the game has exactly 4 weaknesses. In addition, each Pokemon should have the same or no abilities at all and the movepools should all have access to at least two physical and special moves of every typing. I think that would be pretty balanced.

having stab move for each type both physical and special power 90 would actually be pretty just damage and coverage

In the next patch we're making every Pokemon mono Normal Type and giving them the same number of stats all across the board. Their movepools will be altered so they can only learn Return and for variation they will only be able to hold a silk scarf or leftovers, we may remove Leftovers if they prove too powerful though.
