Hi,
My suggestion is to replace Tackle from Weezing for another move. The reasons for that are the following:
Tackle is a normal move for low level pokemons, usually the ones that are not in their final form. Surprisingly, koffing currently does not have tackle (it could be added to koffing, since it has currently 6 moves). On the other hand, koffing currently has Mud Shot (ground move, however it does not do too much damage), while Weezing has 7 poison attacking moves and Tackle. I don't know about other players, but honestly, I prefer to release other pokemon rather than using Tackle, thus making even a high-level pokemon with a useless/dead move.
Looking at bulbapedia, my suggestions to replace tackle are the following, in order of preference:
-> haze (ice)
-> gyro ball (steel)
-> mud bomb or mud shot (ground)
-> destiny bond (ghost)
-> assurance (dark)
-> memento (dark)
Currently, Weezing has 3 area moves (Poison Gas, Belch and Mortal Gas). I dont know if adding one more would be way too much (which number is the limit?). Some of the suggestions are target moves, and I have avoided to suggest more poison moves because I believe that it is important to balance the moveset of pokemons with 1~3 moves of types other than their native ones. If such heuristic is accepted, we could discuss and analyze in future the possibility of replacing some poison move of weezing for a not-poison one...
Also, I take a look at its current in game TM learnset, it is able to learn moves of different atributes (dark, eletric, fire). Based on bulbapedia, Idk how much PAdventures is following it, but there are even other strong TM's that Weezing is able to learn: rain dance, shadow ball, double team, infestation, to name a few.

P.s.: Perhaps the damage of Mortal Gas should be increased, since from my tests it is hiting below the average when considering the other moves. If tackle becomes replaced by other move, maybe some other changes may be required to balance its strength, Idk what would be decided. What do u think?? If such considarations for tackle were accepted, I intent to create topics for other pokemons in their final form that have Tackle, such as snorlax for example.
