In [[Pokémon battle]]s, moves may be used in unorthodox manners, especially to overcome type disadvantages. Invented, [[Moves not in the Pokémon games#In the anime|anime-exclusive moves]] have existed since the [[EP003|third episode]], and [[Counter Shield|custom-made moves]] have been prevalent in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''. Additionally, during [[Contest Battle]]s, moves are often [[Contest combination|fused together]] to create brand-new attacks. | In [[Pokémon battle]]s, moves may be used in unorthodox manners, especially to overcome type disadvantages.

The process in which moves are learned is also markedly different. Even though it has been mentioned in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]'' and ''[[EP245|Will the Real Oak Please Stand Up?]]'' that moves can be learned at certain levels, Pokémon seem to learn them more at random, including moves that are not learned by leveling up in the games (such as Pikachu's {{m|Volt Tackle}}). Similar to Move Tutors in the game, Pokémon can also learn moves by special training from certain people. For instance, {{an|Chaz}} helped Ash's Pikachu learn {{m|Iron Tail}}, and [[Clayton]] helped {{AP|Buizel}} learn {{m|Ice Punch}}. | The process in which moves are learned is also markedly different.

During these and other similar instances, it is seen that Pokémon are capable of learning moves through observation and repetition, showing that each move has a certain procedure to unlock. [[May's Skitty]] was capable of learning [[Blizzard (move)|Blizzard]] after observing a Delcatty doing so in ''[[AG060|Delcatty Got Your Tongue]]!''. By the same extension some moves seem to share similar traits and a move might be learned unintentionally when practicing another, as [[Ash's Greninja]] (a [[Froakie (Pokémon)|Froakie]] at the time) learned [[Double Team (move)|Double Team]] when training to learn [[Quick Attack (move)|Quick Attack]]. [[Ash's Gengar]] learned to use [[Will-O-Wisp (move)|Will-o-Wisp]] after practicing with Ash's many [[Fire (type)|Fire]] Pokémon in how to produce fire. | ||
In ''[[M23|Secrets of the Jungle]]'', {{OBP|Koko|M23}} is seen using {{m|Jungle Healing}}, the only known time a [[human]] has used a Pokémon move. | In ''[[M23|Secrets of the Jungle]]'', {{OBP|Koko|M23}} is seen using {{m|Jungle Healing}}, the only known time a [[human]] has used a Pokémon move. | ||
