    Phantom force

    also, can you do damage to a Pokemon that’s using dig with moves like bulldoze?

    Phantom force

    I decided to make this poll because all 3 of those attacks are INCREDIBLY similar, so I want to know which is best on a battle (does most damage, can’t be affected by attacks while using it, etc.)

    You forgot Dive, Fly, and Sky Attack..

    Either way Phantom Force is still the best.

    2-turn attacking moves typically aren't viable tho because the opponent can just double protect the next turn.

    The only viable 2-turn attacking moves are Electro Shot, Solar Beam/Blade, and Meteor Beam.

    Even still, those are because of the additional effects they have, like the Solar moves taking 1 turn in sun, Electro Shot and Meteor Beam raising SpAtk, and Electro Shot being 1 turn in the Rain.

    But it doesn't matter because none of them actively "disappear" the user like the others do, so I just wrote all this nonsense for nothing..

    Phantom force

    also, out of all the ghost-type moves IVE used, phantom force does the most damage, so if one of my Pokemon can use it I’ll let them use it

    And by the way, phantom force still does regular damage to Pokemon uses moves like protect.

    Wait a minute... I voted Phantom Force because... This is in the Unite section of the forums (please remember to post your threads aka new discussions/polls in the appropriate sections to get appropriate answers.)

    I have not tried a Dig move in Unite (I don't know if there is one?).

    The only Pokemon I know of with Bounce is Gyarados. Not Mega since Mega's move set is one path only.

    So yep, Ceruledge with Phantom Force and sweeping out of it is AWESOME!! 💜🔥

    (Dragapult and another pokemon also use a phantom force move, I can't remember which at the moment).
