Move

From the Pokémon Wiki, a database for the Pokémon series that anyone can contribute to

Moves (Attacks) are techniques that Pokémon use during battle. Moves usually come from a natural ability that the specific Pokémon has. Some moves can be used both inside and outside of battle. When outside of battle, moves are usually used for transportation or for removing a certain obstacle that occurs in the game. There are three types of moves, physical, special and status. Each type holds a different kind of effect when used.
