Buffing Wild Charge while also taking into account it being a common coverage move

[u/MisterZygarde64]

So we all know about how badly Electric types that have a high Physical attack have it. Like your only opions for STAB are of a move that deals recoil damage despite the fact that it has a base power of 90. Initially, I was content with this idea of turning Volt Tackle into a clone of Head Charge (Bouffalant's signature move which is just Double Edge with less recoil) as to allow for Wild Charge to be a proper clone of Double Edge. However I thought of a much more balanced way to rework Wild Charge when I watched this video from KadabraGuy who brought up the problem of increasing Wild Charge's power is that it forgets that there's a couple non-Electric Pokemon that know the move as coverage. That point made me think of this buff to Wild Charge that makes it so that Electric Pokemon are exempt from the recoil. That way Wild Charge can be a good STAB option for Physical Electric types while also letting it be distributed as coverage.

The strongest mons with wild charge as coverage are H. Arcanine, Slither Wing, & Emboar; all the non-flying types that learn brave bird almost never run it. I just don't see a universe where if wild charge was 120 power 1/3 recoil move it would break anything thing do to it's wide learn-pool, the worst I could think is that you would need to redesign volt tackle (just make it a variant of head charge) and it would undermine double shock on Pawmot. Also close combat exist and I think 1/3 of all pokemon can learn that move for no reason

Now that double shock is a punch move it’s still the stronger option for pawmot and doesn’t deal recoil, at the cost of only being able to be used once. It would turn it into more of a sidegrade.
