I almost never use status moves. I just find it a lot more fun to go all out on those high damage attacking moves. Of course I do stock up on potions and revives in the late game.
Yeah when I was younger I only had attacking moves for my Pokémon
But now I try to give them moves like that- but I rarely get an opportunity to use them
I never use status moves. The only ones that I do use are ones that deliver special conditions or are an attack and status move at the same time (like Flame Charge)
