Ember vs Fire Spin & Q about flamethrower

Does the higher EPS of Ember compensate the lower DPS enough to make it viable? And is flamethrower of any use? I hope they didn't make of Flareon another "1/6 for good skillset" mon.

IMO Ember is definitely worse than fire spin.

Flamethrower is more interesting, i think, it is not as good as overheat, but as it is a 2-bar-move, it does not waste energy and is faster useable. I would not complain about FS / FT

Ember is not a bad quick move. If you get an E/OH Flareon I think you should be happy. The extra EPS doesn't fully compensate for the DPS of FS though, but Ember is slightly faster which is a positive for a fragile pokemon like Flareon.

Flamethrower is much the same as Fireblast now, it takes a little longer to deliver the same damage, the positive being that you can deliver it in two shorter periods so you don't have to be AS careful about when to use it.

Overheat is the move to keep your fingers crossed for.
