Move Names Question

In the section Ness' Project M article that lists his moveset, some moves that aren't supposed to have names do. For example, his Dash Attack is called PSI Brainshock. I think this is dumb, since Brainshock causes enemies to feel strange. It doesn't have anything to do with Ness' Dash Attack. Likewise, his Back Throw is being called PSI Farewell. The real PSI Farewell is used by Poo in EarthBound and causes that character to poof away, dropping presents shortly afterward. It doesn't have anything to do with getting thrown. So my question is, why are we giving moves unnecessary names in some of the Project M movesets? John (talk) 17:09, 2 March 2015 (EST)

I've made a point of keeping these off of the canon pages. Unless there's some context where the PMDT uses these names, they should be axed too. Miles (talk) 17:11, 2 March 2015 (EST)

Okay, there doesn't appear to be any context for the names, so I guess I'll work on removing them. John (talk) 18:14, 2 March 2015 (EST)
