Don't get hung up on "natural motion". Instead, learn what is illegal. If it's not illegal, it's legal. Lots of "odd" motions are, in fact, legal. And there's nothing stating that a pitcher's motion from pitch to pitch must be the same. In fact, if there was such a rule, it would take away one of the tools very good pitchers use to hold runners on.
Deception, by itself, is not illegal. As long as you don't do one of the many things proscribed as NOT legal... it's not illegal.
