+1ing the possibility of keeping move sets perhaps limited to a certain amount would definitely 1) make things easier and 2) put in a lot more restrictions that could give characters a chance to really shine in terms of strategy! like, you could definitely teach/level up/breed pokemon with so many moves, but in pvp battles players could choose their top four best moves to mimic the pkmn game set up?

this might be an unpopular opinion but I use this rule for myself when I’m writing up gym badge challenges, and it’s just— ridiculously fun? idk, I think for a pvp battle it might even be able to even the playing field against trainers who have been in the game for so long that their pkmn know a ridiculous amount of tm moves vs a novice. something to consider in the future, but overall this was tremendous fun to watch and I can’t wait to get into the next one!
