Only use for Focus blast is on mewtwo, it and shadow ball are a beastly combo, bot focus blast on its own, not much.
Slow charging one in general arent good, getting off charge moves as fast as possible, which is why peiple use stuff like dragon claw and leafblade, shred oppoents shields and their HP fast, unlike the snow charge moves. They can be good if paired with a 3 bar, have the 3 bar for taking shields apart, then go in for big damage with the one bar charge move, or maybe just mind games. It takes a bit of the right senario, but on their own, one bars are bad, when paired right, they are fantastic
