Fire Punch for Blaziken?

So, I’m wondering if I should teach blaziken Fire Punch or I should stick with brick break?

Not a that good idea for Fire Punch when you could use other good fire type moves such asBlaze Kick, which has a much higher power and you could just learn it from evolution.Break brick is unneeded too seemsyou could learnHi-Jump kickwhich deal much more damage and alsoSky Uppercutwhichncould hit Pokemon when they are bounced.

However, I don’t know what format are you playing, but I’ll still say that no Fire Punch nor Break Brick.

Good Set for Blaziken:Blaziken @ LeftoversAbility: Speed Boost / BlazeEVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 SpeAdamant Nature- Protect / Sword dance / Earthquake- Blaze Kick- Brave Bird- High Jump KickSeems you are going to run a psychical blaziken, these move willdefinitely helps a lot.Protect if you are using a HA Blaziken, if not, use Earthquake.Sword dance good for two of the abilities, but if in-game, use earthquake.Hope it helps!~Crystal.Mad.Edisom

It depends on what you’re looking for. If you want accuracy, use Flamethrower or Fire Punch, since all fire moves are special in Gen 3. If you would prefer extra effects to accuracy, go with Blaze Kick. It has a 1/8 critical hit chance and a 10% chance to burn (though the burn chance is the same for Flamethrower and Fire Punch as well, so I’m mostly talking about the increased crit chance). Brick Break is a good move, and I see no use in replacing it besides if you want to use Sky Uppercut.

I would try a moveset of Brick Break, Flamethrower, Earthquake, and Return/Rock Tomb, personally. I think you should keep Brick Break since it’s STAB. Flamethrower is STAB, and even though it doesn’t have the increased crit chance, I would choose it over Blaze Kick for the accuracy. If you can’t teach it Flamethrower, I would recommend Fire Punch, unless you really want the increased chance of getting a crit.

Hope this helps! :)
