I’m trying to brainstorm new moves and abilities for a fake region I’m working on. Got any ideas?

Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.
Any Ideas for New Moves and Abilities?

You'll have to be more specific. What Pokémon or Fakemon are you trying to make moves and abilities for? Are any types of designs nailed down?
Well I was looking for more general ideas that can apply to many Pokémon (moves especially), but if you want specifics (only for the starters):
A cowboy/outlaw lizard, based on bearded dragons, leopard geckos, and gila monsters with guns for fingers.
An angelic cleric slug based on nudibranchs, sea angels, and seraphim.
A giant druid/barbarian echidna with hills/hobbit houses in it’s back, and a flute for a snout.

Hmm. That's a tough one.
I suppose you could give the cowboy lizard a move called Round-Up or Lawless Lasso. Some kind of binding move that has a higher base power than wrap or bind. I don't have any general ideas.

Lycanfang, a move that belongs to Lycanroc
Type: Rock
Has a 40% chance of making the foe flinch

We need some other moves that deal super effective damage to other types similar to the that move freeze dry which was an Ice move that did super effective damage to Water types. For example, an electric type move that does super effective damage to steel types because you know metal is a good conductor of electricity?
I haven't a clue what this move would be named, but it needs to happen.

Outlaw Lizard; Unique Ability and Move
Ability: Shoot-Out
If this Pokemon and their target both use special attacks, this Pokemon will move before them.
Move: Rowdy Roundup (Physical and Special) (PP: 10, BP: 60)
Draw the target in with a lasso, and then draw them in while the Pokemon shoots them. Does Physical Dmg and then Special Dmg in a 2 hit combo.
If the first hit misses, the move will fail. The move counts as both a physical and special move when doing calculations with moves and abilities like Shoot-Out
I don't got any other ideas IDK.

I don't know if it's NEW so to speak, buuuut, I did play with a concept of using the move Attract in tandem with an original move called Heartbreak.
Essentially, if Attract is used at the beginning of the round, Heartbreak grows more powerful the longer the pokemon infatuated is under the influence of Attract. It does basic damage if used without Attract, but does double damage to opposing genders, and triple damage if used after Attract against the opposing gender.
Its a concept but a fun one.
