What is the strongest move, of each type, that doesn't have some sort of negative effect, or is one of the OHKO moves?

Question

By negative effect I mean lowering a stat, or recoil.

Comments

Do Z-Moves count?

Um, let's say, both, list the strongest if it's a z move, and the strongest non-zmove. Hope that's not too bad.

I think this question was already answered here: https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/302912/what-are-strongest-moves-each-type-including-signature-moves

It's asking with non-negative effects, which is clearly different.

---

The other question's answer mentions moves without negative effects, so that part also answers this question. I guess this question might stay here because the other question's answer is outdated.
