The following rules are for TM/Tutor/Egg Moves. Though you still need to request moves in this thread, these are the guidelines that I’ll be using. It may vary with other mods.

Level up moves are learned by level up.

Guidelines
Tier 1 moves: base power 0-40; one per pokemon per RP.

Tier 2: base power 45-90; only 1 per character per RP.

Tier 3: base power 95 and up; only one per character every other RP.

The level a pokemon can use the move is determined by comparison to other pokemon movesets. For moves that are not learned by level-up, the level learned is determined at mod's discretion.

Additional Guidelines

1. Note that “per character” means one move per human trainer. That is, only one of his/her pokemon can obtain that move in a particular RP.

2. For TM moves, characters should obtain a TM to teach the move. As for learning the move, I would treat it like on the movie The Matrix. There, the main character (Neo) downloaded a skill and immediately “knew kung fu”.

They (TMs) would be in the shape of a VR helmet or pair of goggled, or possibly a device that looks and acts like a retinal scanner. Or they can be kind of a VR machine that "trains" the pokemon. It's your call.
2G NOTE: We’re pretty open on how TMs are treated. Also, we’re treating HMs as natural abilities. You don’t need an HM to use the move outside of battle. To use in battle, follow the guidelines above.

3. Move tutor moves should be taught, but not necessarily by a move tutor. They can be learned from other pokemon , watching a pokemon perform the moves on TV, etc. Keep in mind that more training is required to master tutor moves than TMs.

4. For egg moves, they have to be compatible according to lineage. You may want to keep track of parents of each of your pokemon to make sure your particular pokemon can learn the move.

5. If your pokemon learns a move, mention it in the RP Grading post once the RP is finished. Try and keep track of these moves either in your profile, current levels post, or wiki.

6. These rules are NOT retroactive. That means if we already approved of something, you get to keep it.

7. These rules are subject to change. Keep an eye out on new posts here for any updates.

Move-RequestForm
Name of character: Include link to Current Levels
Move requested: Nuff said. Include type (tutor, TM, Egg)
Pokemon to be taught: You better know this
How will it learn the move?: See guidelines above for your type of move.
Notes: Anything else?

Multi-Generation Movesets

We’re allowing the use of moves across all game generations (R/B/Y, D/P/Pt/HG/SS, etc). That means if a pokemon learns a certain move in one gen and not the others, you can still use it. Also, if it learns a move at an earlier level in one game, you may use the earlier level.

Elizabeth (Liz) Nadira Shir: Current Levels
Move requested: Haze, Egg Move
Pokemon to be taught: Litwick

Name of character: Kenz Issone http://forums.gtsplus.net/index.php?showtopic=45436 <(Link to Profile) http://forums.gtsplus.net/index.php?s=&...t&p=1379411 <(Link to Current Levels)
Move requested: Return TM
Pokemon to be taught: Pidgey
How will it learn the move?: Kenz and the rich boys made a bet. If Kenz won, she would get a TM of her choice. If the rich boys won, Kenz would do their laudry for 3 days. Kenz wins, and the rich boys make a run for it. Sending out her best flyer, Pidee hunts them down and grabs the TM from their pocket. By grabbing the TM, Pidee learns the move.
Notes: What would be the power for this move? Pidgey is Kenz's best friend; they've known each other since Kenz was 7.

Name of character: Tyson Ealdwine
Move requested: Karate Chop and Ice Punch (Both Egg Moves. Ice Punch won't be usable until some RPs later)
Pokemon to be taught: ...Wait, you need a Pokemon to teach a move? Elekid
How will it learn the move?: Karate Punch will, hopefully, be there from the start as a result of training. Due to the fact that the Elekid is unable to use Electrical attacks as of yet eventually he'll learn Ice Punch to counter this weakness.
Notes: Nothing much. If I need to make another Request for Ice Punch then say so and I'll do it later on when the Elekid is able to fully use the attack.

You're both approved; use the moves at your discretion.

[Douken Sota]

Move-RequestForm
Name of character: Douken Sota
Move requested: Sky Drop - TM move (but I plan on self-taught, or tutor-style teaching)
Pokemon to be taught: Sabre (Skarmory)
How will it learn the move?: With Sabre already knowing Fly, he alters it and takes up the opponent, soon to alter the tactics of Fly to Sky Drop.
Notes: links in sig. Also, i want this to be a move alteration, because that is pretty much the difference between Fly and Sky Drop.

I approve. I'd prefer if it wasn't 'Self-Taught', seeing as it is not a move Skarmory learns naturally (which is what Self-taught implies to me.) Sabre is more than welcome to observe the move being used, then mimic it. Or, push comes to shove, Douken could just use the TM. Fly is not an actual combat move in this case, since we're saying that HM skills' field effects can be done by any pokemon naturally. Make sense?

Anyhow, approved.

[Yzarc Drowsnam]

Move-RequestForm
Name of character: Justin Smart
Move requested: Earthquake, TM (Tier 3)
Pokemon to be taught: Hitmontop
How will it learn the move?: Justin will buy the Earthquake TM with the money he made in his most recent Team Deception job. He'll teach it to Hitmontop, whom will have difficulty focusing it at first, and causes a lot of collateral damage in some form or another. I guess this part depends on the situation in which his first use happens, but I know it will have adverse effects.
Notes: He's level 60, so it should be fine, yeah?

Move requested: Ice Punch, Tutor (Tier 2)
Pokemon to be taught: Sudowoodo
How will it learn the move?: Nate's Sneasel knows it already, and Sudowoodo is a master of Mimic. Sudowoodo and Ninja (the Sneasel) will work together to teach him Ice Punch.
Notes: I don't really know the rules, but I only requested one Tier 2 and one Tier 3. If you can only request one from both of them, then I choose Earthquake.

[Kamaitachi]

Unless I'm mistaken, I think it's okay. Since the Tier 3 move will be learned here, you'll have to wait and finish this rp and another before you can request another Tier 3. In the meantime, since you can request one Tier 2 move per RP, then it should also be okay. I guess technically you could request 6 Tier One Moves.

So...

Earthquake is approved. Nice job by you on limiting its awesome power at first.
Ice Punch is approved. Sudowoodo is boss.

[Bronze Charizard]

Name of character: Terra
Move requested: Dragonbreath(egg)
Pokemon to be taught: Leafwind
How will it learn the move?: The RP I'm in involves a bunch of stolen pokemon in cages. The thieves put the keys to the cages in a safe, and of course they refuse to let anyone know what the combination is. Leafwind opens her mouth to roar angrily, and the dragonbreath technique that had lied dormant in her for so long activates. The dragonbreath hits one of the cage locks, and the lock crumbles because the metal it's made out of is highly vulnerable to that type of energy. They open the rest of the cages the same way.
Notes: If you read my profile, you'll see that Leafwind came from an egg that was a gift from a retired trainer. We can easily say Dragonbreath was a move that one of her parents had.

[Kamaitachi]

Denied.

Dragonbreath has a base power of 60, and is therefore a "Tier 2" level move, meaning the pokemon should be at least level 25 before a request for this level of move is considered.

Atop this, the earliest level a non-dragon type pokemon learns this move is Level 31.

I'm sorry, but you may have to change around that part of the story roleplay as well.

[Bronze Charizard]

Dang. Well, I'll wait until she's level 25, and whatever RP I'm in then, I'll think up another way. Sorry for not paying enough attention to the Tiers thing.

Will this apply for all stages of evolution? By level 25, Leafwind will be a grovyle...

[Kamaitachi]

Even as a grovyle, the Level 25 requirement will remain.

[Bronze Charizard]

OK, gotcha. I liked the pokemon opening the cages idea, so I tweaked it a bit so it's allowed.

Name of character: Terra
Move requested: Hone Claws
Pokemon to be taught: Wildclaw(meowth)
How will it learn the move?: As before, the thieves put the keys in a safe and won't say what the combination is. A box of random items was knocked down during the battle royale. Two TMs(hone claws and thief)were in it, Wildclaw learns Hone Claws and uses the new move so he can pick the locks.

Name of character: Terra
Move requested: Thief
Pokemon to be taught: Moonrise(houndour)
How will it learn the move?: Thief was the other TM(see above). Nothing special here, just a typical "use TM, learn the move" type thing.

[Kamaitachi]

Approved for both Wildclaw and Moonrise
