OK so I began working on a (mainly opinion-based) guide about which moves are the best.

It is organized by first Type and then whether or not its Physical, Special, or Other.

You could call it a simplified version of Standardized Movesets. Basically, instead of giving a Pokemon and the four moves that would best be used in combination with it, this guide just focuses on each move on a single basis.

Goal: To help inexperienced trainers decide which moves to choose when casually playing. Obviously if you were going all the way, you would want to look at the standardized movesets, but this is supposed to be a quick reference say when you're Blastoise just leveled up and you need to know if the loss of accuracy in Hydro Pump is worth the power gained when trying to decide if you should get rid of an old move.

So my question to you all is: Is this worth continuing? - and - Has something like this already been done?

And

Keep in mind that I'm no pro. I know some of these rankings are very opinionated and some out-right wrong. I need all of your opinions to help me make the best ranking to help those who need a little help. Please respond with suggestions about what should be changed in the order.

Hey Ajit!

Actually, I've been looking for something like this for a few days now. I've also been looking for just a general discussion of whether or not defensive or status moves are worthwhile in competitive battles. Seeing your list, based on your opinion, is actually very helpful to those of us who are relatively new to Pokémon. And yes, I personally do think it would be worthwhile to continue. And I, for one, would certainly follow the thread and your updates.

So, tell me, when you're training your Pokémon up for general game-play (ie, going against the gym leaders & E4), do you tend to only use attacks that inflict damage, or do you also include status attacks/boosters or defensive moves in your arsenal? For example, would you have moves that decrease your opponent's attack or defense, or that boost those stats in your own team? Do you find defensive moves (such as reflect or detect) to be useful in a battle?

Or, do you find that for in-game battles, you do the best when you simply concentrate on really hard-hitting attacks from high-level Pokémon?
