Great video! Though I do think it's funny that about half the list was full of decent to incredibly useful moves in competitive doubles. Quash on sableye is a menace, and even hold hands was used on actual tournament teams. The teams were built around timer stalling and hold hands is a very long animation which assisted in the strategies viability.

Ion Deluge in a Double Battle could be used to abuse Explosion or Self-Destruct to heal the ally that used it, AND bypass a ghost type. Even better for things weak to electric, like Drifblim, since that means you can pull a sneaky thing, unlike with an Alolan Golem or something, where they might expect it. Niche, yes.

A move that I never see anyone talk about is Spotlight. Basically it acted like follow me or rage pouder, but you used it on your ally to give them the affect. Granted, people use follow me/rage pouder to get things done with a vulnerable pokemon (set up, heal, etc), but I feel like it could have some niche situations, like maybe redirecting a scald onto a water absorb pokemon. What makes it so forgetable is that it was introduced in gen 7... and then immediately removed in gen 8.

And if the target has Poison Heal or Guts, which removes the Attack boost or negates the HP regeneration.

One Very situational use for purify is vs guts/poison heal sets. You can heal yourself and debuff a burned guts-set pokemon that just hit you with some damage (if you make it)

I'm kinda surprised that Light of Ruin wasn't on this list. It is a Fairy-type special move introduced in Generation 6. It has the highest base power of all Fairy-type moves at 140, but the user of the move receives recoil damage equal to 1/2 of the damage done to the target. The reason you've probably never heard of this move is because it is the signature move of AZ's Eternal Flower Floette, a Pokemon that has not been released and is unobtainable without hacking. It is also one of the few moves that cannot be selected by Metronome, so there is no way to see this move in-game through legitimate means. Then again, a lot of people know about Eternal Flower Floette due to it's status as unused content and a lot of people speculate about why it was never released, so maybe Light of Ruin isn't as obscure as I first thought.

I've heard of the first 4 and Laser Focus.

I've done something similar with a Mega Gardevoir using a fairy-type Hyper Beam against ghost-types. But like you said, it's prettysituational.

Strategy for Laser Focus: Use it in a double/triple battle, then next have that same Pokemon deliberately attack (preferably with a weak attack) its own ally, who you have made sure has the ability Anger Point.
