*** Taunt forces its target to only use attacking moves. Doesn't seem much against Pokémon that has at least one attack, until you find out that high-level play often revolves around setting up buffs, traps, field effects etc, which usually are non-damaging moves and thus become temporarily unusable when its user is taunted, and this can lead to a loss.

*** Trick Room reverses the turn order of all Pokémon for several turns, meaning that those with the lowest speed will instead move first while Trick Room is active. Given that CompetitiveBalance causes aloss.great number of MightyGlacier in the franchise to sacrifice their speed for offense and defense, Trick Room suddenly turns them into LightningBruiser par excellence while previously-fast FragileSpeedster and GlassCannon suddenly turn into wet paper snails that are soon to be shredded before they can react.

** This was also how Brandon Lee died on the set of ''Film/TheCrow''. Owing to the film's TroubledProduction, the prop crew, rather than spend money on "dummy" cartridges for close-up shots of the revolver used to shoot Lee's character, created some on the cheap by taking actual, live .44 Magnum rounds, pulling the bullets out of the cartridges, dumping out the powder, and reinserting the bullets. However, they forgot to take out the percussion primers, which went off with just enough force to lodge a bullet in the gun barrel. When they loaded that same gun with blanks, the force from the shot sent that bullet flying out the barrel and straight into Lee's chest at close to full speed.

** [[MakingASplash Waterbending]] can also be applied in a rather nasty fashion known as ''bloodbending'', essentially [[PeoplePuppets puppeteering someone through the liquids in their body]]. In "[[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderThePuppetmaster The Puppetmaster]]", Hama uses it to [[PsychicAssistedSuicide try to force Aang and Sokka to kill each other]], while Yakone appears to have attempted to ''crush Aang's organs''.

** Bartolomeo is a BarrierWarrior but has the demeanor and personality of a violent thug. His fighting style usually begins with using his barriers for their intended purpose of protecting him, as well as anyone he wishes to protect (though there aren't many people on that list), then waits until he finds an opening or his target tires out and then uses his barriers offensively, such as pushing his targets around or squeezing them between barriers. He is good enough at this to have accrued a 9-digit Berry bounty in his first year as a pirate, giving him Supernova status.
