Empoleon Moves and Ability
All the moves and move descriptions are based on the video above.
Ability: Torrent
When the Pokémon deals damage to opposing Pokémon, or when a set amount of time passes, the Torrent gauge increases (max 100). If a move is used when the Torrent gauge exceeds a certain amount, the Torrent gauge is consumed, and that move becomes boosted. If the Pokémon's HP is below a certain percentage, the amount the Torrent gauge increases is greater.
Hydro Cannnon
Has the user launch a watery blast in the designated direction, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon it hits and leaving them unable to act. When this move is boosted by Torrent, a whirlpool appears and deals damage over time. The user also recovers HP when in contact with the whirlpool. (Energy cost consumed: 50)
Metal Claw
Has the user charge in the designated direction, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon with wings of steel and shoving them. When this move is boosted by Torrent, the user receives a shield effect. (Torrent gauge consumed: 50)
Whirlpool
Has the user create a violent, swirling whirlpool around itself, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon it hits and restoring the user's HP. When this move is boosted by Torrent, the amount of damage dealt and HP restored are increased, and the move also throws opposing Pokemon before ending with a slash, dealing damage. (Torrent gauge consumed: 50)
Aqua Jet
Has the user lunge at blinding speed in the designated direction, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon it hits and increasing the user's basic attack speed for a short time. When this move is boosted by Torrent, it decreases the Sp. Def of Pokemon from the opposing team. (Torrent gauge consumed: 50)
UNITE Move: Sovereign Slide
Has the user slide at high speed in the designated direction and form a whirlpool on impact, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon it hits and throwing them. The whirlpool remains centered on the user for a short time, applying a slowing effect to opposing Pokemon. While the whirlpool remains, the amount the Torrent gauge increases is greater.
