A compliment in the RPG is that a pokemon is possible to learn as knows as many moves as it can, except for TMs and/or Move Tutors (4) and Egg moves (2). But... there are no restrictions on how many one can use IN ONE BATTLE. I think it would be outrageous for one single pokemon to be able to use 10+ moves in the same battle.

So my question is this. Can we add a limit on how many moves can be used per battle?

MY CURRENT SUGGESTIONS:

Sonchic (Approved: DS#081)

Aureagle (Approved: DS#082)

Zephyrach (Approved: DS#083)

Ionew

Bulbug

Well, have you read the fanfic in the Cave of Dragonflies? In the story Dragonfree wrote, during a Pokemon battle, the first four moves that are used are the only ones that Pokemon can use for the remainder of the battle. So if a Bulbasaur used Leech Seed, Vine Whip, Leech Seed again, Poisonpowder, and Razor Leaf, then Leech Seed, Vine Whip, Poisonpowder, and Razor Leaf would be the only moves Bulbasaur can use for the battle, even if it is recalled or knows other moves.

That's what I was thinking for the PF RPG. I wanted that kind of method to imply for here.

Why? Just play it however you want to. A lot of the questions about the RPG don't make any sense, specifically because we're given so much more control than normal. If you want to implement a rule like that on yourself, do it. I personally have no need for it because I want to make my battles more like the anime - eventually a concise strategy will beat the opponent, and that's it. Do what you want. See if you can get Flarsy and Sov to agree to it as well for Triptych.

Well, the "four-moves" rule might only only apply to "official" battles, like Gym Battles, when you could use more than four when fighting a wild Pokémon. I evaded this clause in battling Aaron in technically not using any moves.

Sableye, Lvl. 9 (approx.) (male)

Tiquail, Lvl. 7 (female)

Normgon, Lvl. 6 (female)

Sunny (Sunkern) Lvl. 7 (female)

Grubva, Lvl. 7 (male)

Dark Ariados is released.

Coolsteph is partly right, the pokémon of the PFL Gym leaders (as well as those of the evil team leaders and the Elite Four) are indeed limited to four moves each. We haven't and won't limit the amount used by trainers during any battle, but as elementalpenguin said, you're free to impose that limit upon yourself.

I actually think we should have that four move rule apply to Gym battles. It actually gives us a reason as to why they do that in the games. Plus it puts a spin on the battle.

No. I disagree. One of the great (and odd) things about the PFL RPG is that you decide almost everything. This includes game conventions. Do what you want. If you want to put a spin on the battle, do it yourself - the staff are creative people, and I'm sure they enjoy new, refreshing tactics or conditions.

We do ^^ As Antarctros said: everyone is free to impose a limit of four moves on themselves, but we won't do so officially.

ON the topic of moves, I can see that almost half of the G/S/C PFL pokemon don't have move lists, and that really bugs me.

We're aware that this is a problem, and we're planning on fixing it for all species. It's low-priority, though, so if you need a pokémon's move list for the PFL, let a Staff Member know and we'll churn one out for it.
