I'm sad about Scald being gone but honestly I get it, it was way too centralizing and strong of a move
I haven't been too impressed with Chilling Water as a replacement personally. Its not a bad move at all, but just like Struggle Bug isn't common, it wouldn't be my go-to pick. Its good when confronting opposing setup attackers (typically with Bulk Up, Swords Dance isn't fast enough), and can help say Toxapex win some MUs it might not ordinarily be able to, but it hasn't been the most appealing Imo
For Pex, I think the common choices are gonna cycle between zero attacking moves, Gunk Shot, Venoshock and maybe Liquidation depending on the player's preference and the team
