Not really. Magic is just so varied in its effects that no spell can really have a claim to that. Though the beam spell that Princess Celestia and the Changeling Queen used against each other could probably qualify as the strongest against a single opponent, and Shining's shield is probably the strongest defense.

Water has Hydro Pump. It's extremely powerful, but it's very easy to miss with it. Electric has Thunder, which has the same problem, and Zap Cannon, which is even more powerful and even more inaccurate. If you use Thunder in the rain, though, it stops being so hard to hit with. Which probably isn't much of a surprise. Psychic... I think that's actually the move Psychic. Really obvious there. And Grass has Solarbeam.

Now, Solarbeam's interesting in that it's arguably more useful on several Fire-types than it is on a Grass. The reason for that is because a lot of Fire-type Pokemon can learn Sunny Day, and when the sunlight is strong, Solarbeam is easier to use.
