Heal Bell and Aromatherapy

You guys all know how, people try to avoid status conditions in PMU. Mostly they use the move refresh. However, they can use moves like heal bell or aromatherapy to heal, players they partied up with. I for one think, that the moves Heal bell and Aromatherapy should heal other players and the users other pokemon. Why? Well, because look at it this way

Refresh’s Description from Leaf Green and Fire Red: A self-healing move that cures the user of a poisoning, burn, or paralysis.

Notice how it says self healing. Does that description sound like it heals 2 and more pokemon?

Now, you can take a look at Heal Bell and Aromatherapy

Heal Bell’s Description from Gen 4 and 5 games. : The user makes a soothing bell chime to heal the status problems of all the party Pokémon

Aromatherapy’s Description from Gen 4 and 5 games: The user releases a soothing scent that heals all status problems affecting the user’s party.

See how both heal bell and aromatherapy focus on the user and its allies. Sure, they heal players you’ve partnered up with, but overall it’d make more sense to have them heal the users other pokemon as well.

So, My main point is that both Heal Bell and Aromatherapy should heal the user’s other pokemon as well, and that refresh be changed into a move that affects only the pokemon that used it.

Also, one last reason why, i think this would be a good idea. Pokemon that know refresh are somewhat hard to come by, and the fact that everyone is rushing to get one, or depending on rest is rather annoying. You could look at Heal Bell and see that many pokemon can learn it, thus, allowing teams to be more unique rather than seeing blisseys or corsolas.

Sorry if this post was made already, infact i’m pretty sure i made something similar to this, but i went into more detail this time. And sorry for any typos/spelling errors i may have made.

I hope you agree with me.

The only problem I see if that there would be no moves which work like Aromatherapy and Heal’s current uses, since Refresh would be for 1 Pokémon, Heal Bell would be for your party, but what about your friends? That only leaves Blissey.

Well, I can see that being a problem, but it can easily be fixed, i mean, just look at the list of pokemon that learn Heal Bell by level and by tutor, its huge. there is also the healer ability

As far as I’m aware, Sprinko is perfectly happy with the moves mentioned as they are in their current state. At the very least, I believe as a compromise, allowing those Pokemon that learn Refresh in XD to somehow learn them on PMU.

I agree with Zara here. It would be cool to see Pokemon from Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness be able to learn Refresh, as a lot of them did learn it after purification. You could add it as a Shard move, for the green shard. I mean, I have more green shards and I find more green shards than any other shard, and I don’t really want to use Green Shards either. It, to me, would make green shards have a little more of a purpose if Refresh was a shard move, and Pokemon that learned it in Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness could get it through shards.

I do not completely agree with Mag33’s suggestions, however I really agree with zara’s. It would be totally wicked if those pokemon would be able to learn refresh too, since we have a really low limited option of pokemon we could use that have refresh. I even used several heart scales on huntail for refresh. It’s a worth-to-get move and it would be cool if green shards gave us refresh on those pokémon from XD via bronzong.

I disagree because it will make the game to easy to play then and you can spam it since it heals any stat

Mmm…didn’t look at it that way before, the whole XD Purification pokemon would be helpful, hopefully it gets added, or something gets changed.

This would certainly make the game easier, but there could be a low amount of PP for this move.And from experience, I"ve forgotten to bring some vital items while training or wasting a good move while lagging very badly. This could make these healing moves hard to use, which we don"t really want to happen on purpose, but can make people think a little harder when to use it. Also, the TM can be extremely rare. We"re talking Ice Beam rare.

As for the small amount of pokemon that can learn Refresh, I think these two moves could help players alot. The number of pokemon I know so far that can learn refresh, personally, is one.

I hope these moves get added and that people don"t abuse them. I know that the move might get removed otherwise.

No offense, but I HATE this idea. Lets say there is a 4 person party. up to 13 people can be healed with a maximum of 4 uses f healbell and aromatherapy, but if you use refresh ANY amount of times, the maximum people that can be healed is only 4. Plus potions, heals, and the party-heal items are REALLY hard to obtain, or at least pretty darn hard. If staff make it like this, then HT will be a lot harder. Just sayin’.

I agree with jesp, HT would be very difficult, unless everyone brought their own healer, but even then, it’ll be hard if your healer gets KOed. Maybe change it so that Heal Bell heals your team only, while Aromatherapy heals self and party, or vice versa. Still, I feel that there does need to be a few more team stats cure moves… Maybe one more?
