Not a bug 0.45.1 - Flash TM bug.
- Thread starter sagata
- Start date
First of all, Flash is a Hidden Machine in this game, not a Technical Machine.
That second bit of information might actually be a bug, will need to experiment.
Thirdly, Flash has been altered to be an Electric-type move and to deal damage. Completely intentional.

hmm, why would decreasing the user's accuracy be intentional?
The move has higher priority than other moves (much like Quick Attack) and also higher base power. It needs a downside.
Without any proper arguments or statements from your side, saying "That is dumb" won't affect people's attitude towards you positively. Just saying.
If you would bring up constructive criticism that we can turn into valuable feedback so we know why you don't like a specific aspect of the game would help us tremendously more than your current statement.
I find such changes to the move undesirable and as such probably wont use it in battle. however if the accuracy of the opponent was dropped as well that would make the move more appealing.
It would be also funny as potentially both Pokemon's accuracy could drop so low to the point that only sure hit moves like swift or faint attack could possibly hit the other.
another option is that it lowers accuracy of all Pokemon in battle (friend and foe for double battles) as then I could see this move as an interesting risk vs reward move that could rapidly change the tide of battle for better or worse.
EDIT: in double battles the move would only do damage to one target to prevent it becoming overpowered.

The thing is that the move would be overpowered when it wouldn't drop your accuracy only because its a priority move with 100% initial accuracy, its also electric type (as opposed to the normal move it would be normally).I find such changes to the move undesirable and as such probably wont use it in battle. however if the accuracy of the opponent was dropped as well that would make the move more appealing.

The original move Flash is a normal type move, with 70 accuracy, 0 battle speed and no damage at all. It just lowers the opponent's accuracy.
It looks like you like that move, but the majority of people never actually use that move, you have to teach it to a Pokémon in order to use it though. And this change in type and functionality actually makes the move more useable and adds the opportunity for some Pokémon to learn an electric type move which they couldn't do before.
