It is neat to note, and it will be interesting to see how people react to this. However my pokemon build was somehow quite suitable before I even learned of Ruin types and even with its revelation, it doesn't cause that much of a stir for me. ^^ Guess I chose well from the very beginning.

Also, it's true that dragon only does double damage to itself normally, but it also has the benefit that only steel types resists it, so it's basically like a normal type attack that isn't resisted by rock or ghost type. So it's good for reliability because so few types resist it.

But yeah, I imagine people will be scrambling asking for the right to either get a pokemon that is ruin type (Dibs on ruin/steel for me!) or a pokebrid or weapon based on it.

Question. If we do get the rights/chance to get ruin type pokemons, will they have the same sort of moves that the Narcham and its evolved form has at the moment? They are so much more powerful than standard moves such as double lowering two stats with high high power and chance for confusion or a OHKO move with 40 accuracy instead of 30 or the "Hit all enemies on field", and other such powerful stuff.
Will any of the current pokemons especially the ones reknown for having a super diverse movepool be able to learn these moves (if there is a invented TM for them) or something like that. Highly doubt it, but figured I would ask. Heck, hardly any different from Rhyperior being able to use dragon moves or Togekiss being able to use moves from 15 element type (16 if you count Toxic for poison although no direct damage poison moves).
