Yes I excel badly in that delicate art

V create has 180 bp not 190 and does assurance count cuz it can score 120 power

---

I believe that Hydro Cannon is also Water 150 BP? Good answer tho :)

---

Really sorry, my bad, didn't notice that and V-Create's BP was a typo. Edited them, thanks!

---

dw bout it :D

---

Dont forget caly's astral barrage also has 120bp. May i know why u do not count non-signature z moves?

---

I don't count non-signature Z-Moves as then there won't be the "Including Z-Moves" section, as the non-signature Z-Moves don't have a definitive BP.
And corrected Astral Barrage's part, thanks.
