everytime a pokemon with a tail shows up on the show, it automatically knos iron tail. Before pikachu learned iron tail, the move was used like twice, and after pikachu learned it, it became a worldwide sensation.

so tell me people....anyone tired of it yet?
 
nope. don't care.

it'd be cool if they showcased different moves, but in my opinion, not worth the complaint.
 
The writers probably feel so many Pokemon have tails that they might as well use them in battle.

It gets overboard at times, but it is no different than all those Hyperbeams we constantly see now.
 
I'm tired of the most basic moves like tackle and stuff. But the show really should show off more moves as there are a lot but maybe the animators are lazy and they don't feel like drawing it.
 
Nope, Iron Tail's fine.... these tails aren't just for nothing you know...
 
I really did hate the Iron Tail overusage. But I've come to grips with such anomalies. Just like I've done with Hyper Beam, Solarbeam, Ice Beam... alotta beams.
 
I'm not bored of it. I'm bored of Volt Tackle. I've never heard 'pika' so much.
 
iron tail and hyper beam, the most popular anime attacks (barring thunderbolt)
 
Depends on the Pokemon, personally. I mean Pikachu really needs iron tail for rock types and such. And some other weaker types are fine for having iron tail, maybe even a few steel Pokemon.

But if we're talking about Leafeon, Breloom, then we have a problem since they don't need it, well except maybe for ice types but lets ignore that for now. Or maybe Grass Pokemon was a bad example. Okay then Blastoise, ice types don't matter because its not weak to the typing.

But if eventually there comes a time to choose between iron tail and another steel type move, I'd choose the latter.

Of course in some if not all certain cases, a fighting type move would be better (for rock, ice, even steel) than iron tail.
 
Well hey, in the first 5 seasons it was all about Thundershock, remember? Even on the parodies on other TV shows, you'd always have Thundershock in there somewhere. Frankly, Iron Tail and Volt Tackle are my two favorite Pikachu moves, the other moves being Thunder and Thunderbolt.
 
I for one like to see Iron Tail used, i think its a pretty cool attack so it doesn't bother me
 
Yes, I am also tired of Bubblebeam, Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Flamethrower, Razor Leaf, Tackle, Quick Attack, Aerial Ace, Confusion/Psychic, Shadow Ball, among others.
 
Yes! That's why I declared in that old "Pikachu should learn a new move" thread to have the writers have it learn new moves and shuffle its move pool a few times. I want to see it shoot beams, hurl mud, surf the waves, trip opponents, do a reversal and ignites its hidden power.
 
I'm not tired of Iron Tail. It looks pretty cool and is starting to become one of Pikachu's signature moves. It was a big improvement for it since it can now be more effective agaisnt types

Writers do that a lot. In Harry Potter, something previously unknown to the group (and I guess everyone else) instantly becomes world renowned the second the group experiences it.

And frankly. Iron. Tail. There's nothing wrong with that.

Frankly, I just like the word iron.
 
Whenever Pikachu says "Chuu, Pika!" it's kinda annoying and repetitive especially the motion of the attack itself.

Pikachu has various sounds that is says when it is referring to someone. See his Bulbapedia page for full info.

Ash is Pika-chu (Satoshi)

PikaPi is Satoshi

and Iron Tail is overused. The Same for Ice Beam!(I'm looking at you movie 11!)
 
I am very bored of Iron Tail, despite me not really watching the anime. I would really like seeing things like Trick Room or Embargo.
