I suppose this is as much a question as it is a suggestion. I know you staff folk are pretty married to the Gen 3 mechanics, but is there any possibility of getting a physical/special split sometime in the future? It's the one thing that makes early gens kinda insufferable for me. My Adamant Gyarados' Bite is hitting like a toy truck off his horrid SpA, and Gengar's weeping over his physical Shadow Ball.

So, I was viewing my shiny collection in my X version while on my spring vacation this past week, and I particularly noticed my sapphire shiny lunatone. This made me wonder about the competitive capabilities that a lunatone could have. So I looked up the moves that it could learn in 3rd gen and stumbled across baton pass. I was surprised to say the least. But then I noticed that lunatone could only learn the move by being purified in XD Gale of Darkness. Therefore, my suggestion is to implement a method for being able to get these "special moves" onto the pokemon that the moves concern. The method that comes to mind, and would kill two birds with one stone, would be to make these moves available to the pokemon via swarms (i.e. lunatones found in swarms would have the move baton pass on them). These moves are not meta-changing (to my knowledge, and I am not even sure as to which pokemon besides lunatones have special moves), but they would provide other options for certain pokemon. They are also not able to be bred onto the pokemon's same-species offspring (since they are neither tutor nor egg moves) this would help solve the problem of swarms being undesireable. BOTTOM LINE: Special moves give certain pokemon other options in comp play. The moves are in their movepool but are currently unavailable to them. If implemented through swarms it would be killing two birds with one stone in my opinion.
