Oooh, I'm very interested in the idea that the Z-Move strength is relative to the regular move you use with the crystal.
 
I'm so hyped! I'm going to have to go to sleep in an hour or so, so hopefully there is a lot of datamined info when i wake up tomorrow ^^ I'm really excited for new pokemon if they ends up being revealed!
 
Wait I'm confused...people seem to be hype about how fast the data was mined but it looks like there's not really any info yet on either of those pastebins? Are you all referring to the minor info that we have so far is there a ton of info somewhere that I'm not aware of?
 
Im so ready-I heard from serebii base stats were scrubbed out. Thats too bad-I wanted to know if Vikavolt was usable. Sigh.
 
Not much of a spoiler but Water Shuriken deals special damage now.
Yep, I was pretty excited when I saw that. Even though I sorta know why they made it physical (gotta get that water pretty solid before it can cut anything) nothing with good attack power could learn it. It's still a fairly weak attack but this will help it out a bit to keep it from being entirely useless.
 
Have they ever changed a moves category before?(Gen3 to 4 type thing doesent count)

Lol Greninja used Water Shuriken just fine; but yeah, I'm so excited for Accelgor to use Water Shuriken effectively now!!! Lord knows she could use it, her movepool was so paltry these last two gens
