 * [[Egg Move]]s, which a Pokémon knows upon hatching in the games, are able to be picked up naturally as the Pokémon grows (one example being [[Ash's Pikachu]] learning {{m|Volt Tackle}} 424 episodes after its first appearance).
 * In the anime, there can be more than the eight usual [[Gym]]s in each [[region]]. However, Ash only ever faces the ones from the games, with the others challenged by the rivals.
-* In Abilities or Ability of Pokémon can only be certain ones, unless they are obtained in a event or special cases such as a Battle Bond Greninja for example. In the anime Pokémon can have an ability that they don’t have in the games.
-* In the games Starter Pokémon can only be obtained at the beginning and only one can be chosen, unless the player trades or gets more of them as a gift/event. In the anime characters can spot them in multiple places and have as many as they like.
 * In the anime, all Trainers who collect at least eight Badges compete in a [[Pokémon League Conference]]. In the games, Trainers who manage to collect all the specific regional Badges are qualified to challenge the [[Elite Four]] and the current Champion.
 ** In the anime, Trainers may also just directly challenge the current Champion but does not involve the Pokémon League defense without additional requirements, as seen in several of [[Cynthia]]'s battles.
