This...doesn't make any sense at all. Why on earth should a move ever work like this one does?

Hmm, yes I know that this particular attack is difficult to understand but lets put it this way.

Elemental types ( water, electric and fire) The move raises the power of the attacks that they use. It also heightens one sta one level and lowers another.

Dark - Psychic - Fighting: The move deoes damahe dependant on the type of day they would be most active (begining or end of day) and then sleeps to return health (like rest). Psychics are mostly daytime creatures while Darks are more nightime creatures. Perhaps to counter Fightings non-resting stage it should do 60 power each turn.

Does trhis seem to explain the dynamics of it better.

Okay, I get how the DRK/FTG/PSY part applies to the name, but the ELC/FIR/WTR forms don't seem to belong in the same move with them. Even ????-type moves usually have pretty similar effects in some way; Rainbow and Diffusion only change the type of their damage, ElementForce is always the same attack but with differing side effects, and though the two forms of Thermal are quite different, they both fit the motif of a hot updraft. The two sets of effects for this move don't even seem to have that much going for them.

How about this: EITHER
DRK,FTG,PSY - same as above
ELC/FIR/WTR + ICE - does he same damage as DRK/PSY/FTG and puts the weather effect of their specific type. (This is the weather they are best suited to, and as such would perform best on a day of that weather). This way the attack is similar for each type but has its own distinguishing features.

OR

Have this attack for just the DRK/PSY/FTG types.

Your choice, Pory.

This has been overlooked for a long time.

PF MOD POWER
PP: 15

If used by a PF Staff Member:
Out of Battle: On the message board, closes annoying topics.
In Battle: One-hit KO move(with double normal accuracy on small, annoying Pokmon.)

If used by Non-Staff:

No, I don't expect this to get accepted either.

how about Metronome Beam.

only clefairy, wigglytuff, and chansey would know this attack. During use you have 15 pp for this attack and when used the pokemon above can attack using any beam. for e.g. aurora beam, solar beam, ice beam.

Mood Swing: two points. First, there's no real reason to make this ????-type. The move's not affected by the user's type in any way, and it doesn't deal damage or have side effects that match up to different elements well.
Second, it disturbs me that Yellow, Green, and Red all have exactly the same effect when you get right down to it.

Metronome Beam: Name's too long. Also, why would the pokmon you listed be the only ones with access to the move? Not only is that a far shorter list than the list of pokmon who can learn Metronome, it still manages to include species that can't learn Metronome itself.

Attack with the opposite.

This attack's type will always be the weakness of the target's first type.

"The" weakness? So...would it be a random type that's effective against Type1, like how Conversion2 chooses a random type that's resistant to the enemy's last attack?

I ask because the only reason this move could get approved is that some dual-types might get away with standard-damage hits, or even immunity if it hits a Wooper with Electric-type damage. As a matter of fact, certain pokmon, like Akela and Zapdos, would be guaranteed immunity...

How about, the attack will be the type of the weakness that will do the most damage? Like for Zapdos, it would be Rock.

Or, how about, no matter what Pokemon this move is used against, it will always be super effective.

Erm...I think you just completely missed the point. I just said the move would not be approved under those circumstances. Guaranteed element advantage is just too cheap a move.
You said the move is supposed to be a type that's effective against Type1. Zapdos' Type1 is Electric, which has Ground as its only weakness, and since Type2 is Flying, Zapdos would be immune to this move. The Normal/Ghost Akela would work the same way.
Now, Skarmory, say, is a more interesting question. Skarmory's Type1 is Steel, which has three weakness: Fighting, Fire and Ground. Each of those reacts differently to Skarmory's Type2, Flying, so what happens when this move is used on Skarmory becomes a question.
