i would say transform is the most dangerous move.(not in a game context). it is only used to transform into the opponent. but if go more lenient like in the anime being able to alter your stats, learn moves and buff yourself at will is busted (transforming pokemon have the same boosts as the pokemon they copy).theoretically you could train your pokemon to max out their base stats 999, make their stat buff all+6, use any ability, and any move and be virtually unstoppable. the crazy part is i don't think it would be that hard. get a smeargle or ditto, find a high IQ pokemon like alakazam, metagross etc,have them transform into it, then have them use that IQ to make themselves godlike.(at that point I'm sure they would question why their taking orders from you so i would have the friendship at the max first)

wait, that's actually pretty terrifying. but at the same time (ik im bein a little nerdy here), wouldn't those pokemon it copies have more exp with those moves? which in turn makes it a bit weaker than those who have more exp.

@shekkster the only thing that doesn't get copied is the hp value and level everything else like stats etc. Is. So you would hit just as hard. Also apparently the pp a moves copied is 5. But ceartin generations treat it differently. This isn't really a problem when the pokemon can give themselves the imposter ability. Allowing them to transform without the pp restriction of the move. Which also means they can replenish the pp of their other moves indefinetly.
