Hattrem Brutal Swing

Just posting this on here, although the animation does look like Hattrem used Brutal Swing, without dialogue confirming this was the move, we can't accept it as a major event at present.--BigDocFan, Junior Admin Bulbapedia (talk) 14:23, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Much as I disagree with that, I respect any decisions made by the admins. Probably won’t be next weeks episode we find out since it’s a friede and cap episode so I guess just wait Pokemaster124 (talk) 14:25, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

I don't know, wasn't the rule always that if the move had a unique animation to the point where there wasn't really any mistaking it for a different move, then it was safe to assume? Like, I get it in cases where there's no way to tell if it's Water Gun or Hydro Pump, or Thunder Shock, Thunderbolt, or Thunder, but if this looks identical to previous usages of Brutal Swing in the anime, including another Hattrem's confirmed use of the move, this feels a bit overly-cautious to me. - totally signed comment from Missingno.

I agree with the above post. Brutal Swing's animation in this episode is lifted almost directly from the games, so I feel it should could as unique enough to be verified based on animation alone. Plus, it looks similar enough to how its confirmed usage by another Hattrem in Journeys looked like. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 17:04, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
