When Ash's Pikachu attacks Team rocket with what Ash would usually call thunderbolt, he simply says "electric attack". Isn't that a type of special move instead?

Very few of these are actual "errors".  Not many people seem to realize that everything from the games doesn't always apply to the anime.  Why should a Pokémon with a different move set be considered an "error", but a Pokémon with an entirely different history isn't called an "error" (i.e. Mewtwo was born from a Mew in the games... he was born from an incubator-type machine in the anime).  I suggest changing the name of this article to "Anime move differences" or something.

On an unrelated note, a section of "moves used by Pokémon at a time in which the move could not be used in the games" is missing.  Stuff in this section would include Ash's Charizard using Fly before Yellow Version came out, Victor's Pikachu using Surf before Nintendo distributed their first 1000 Surfing Pikachus / released Pokémon Stadium 2, Mewtwo using Shadow Ball before Generation II came out, along with many others.

:The name issue [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f195/candidates-merging-moving-mainspacing-splitting-discussion-thread-114138/index5.html#post3791493 was brought up on the forums], but we couldn't come up with a decent alternative. I don't like "anime move differences", because it implies that they are different within the anime, not different to the games.
:As for the missing "moves used by Pokémon at a time in which the move could not be used in the games", Ash's Charizard didn't use Fly until [[EP105]], by which stage Yellow was already out. Also, we don't consider [[Puka]] riding a surfboard to be using the move Surf either. Mewtwo doesn't count because the move didn't exist then, and it gained access as soon as it did. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 10:56, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
::Also, the section you suggested already exists; it's called "Former errors".  It includes James's Koffing/Weezing using Poison Gas and Jessie's Lickitung using Lick.  <small>- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno.

== Moves Section ==
 
I couldn't think of another section to put this in: it's called the Moves Used section, not the the Moves Commanded to use section. Just because a trainer tells his/her Pokemon to do something, doesn't necessarily mean that the pokemon actually knows that move. Remember when James told Weezing to use Hyper Beam, and they realized that Weezing never learned the move? If they had been interrupted before Weezing could "use" Hyper Beam, would we still list it in the Moves Used section
for it? {{unsigned|Confusion}}
:I don't think so. James said he had never gotten around to teaching Weezing Hyper Beam, so it doesn't know it and it ended up using Smog instead. I don't think it counts. [[User:Littlmiget123|Littlmiget123]] 00:17, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
::No, I just mean those instances when trainers tell their pokemon to use a move, they get interrupted before it can be done, and we still list it in the Moves Used Section. Like...Bianca telling her Escavalier to use Quick Guard.
:::Oh, okay, I see what you're getting at now... However, this page is for anime move errors. Weezing using Hyper Beam and Escavalier using Quick Guard are moves that they ''can'' learn, right? ^-^ That's what their sections are for on their Trainer's page.

== Heracross ==
 
In one episode (I think it is League Unleashed), Ash's Heracross used Focus Punch (nothing abnormal since it can learn the move) but the move was used via [[Sleep Talk]] which in the games cannot happen, isn't this an anime move error?--[[User:Igor Castro Chucre|Igor ]] ([[User talk:Igor Castro Chucre|talk]]) 02:16, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
:Heracross can learn Sleep Talk via TM in Gen IV, and tutoring in B2W2 (though the latter is hardly applicable.

:::::This page is for moves that a Pokémon used that they normally shouldn't be able to use in the games.

::::::Moves that can't be selected by Mirror Move/Sleep Talk/Sketch etc. are very game mechanic-based and really shouldn't apply to the anime. Also, Sleep Talk can select Focus Punch in Generation II. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 08:43, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
:::::::(I'm not arguing with your actual opinion; just mentioning a mistaken claim:) Actually, Focus Punch didn't exist in Gen II, so it would be impossible for Sleep Talk to select it. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:22, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

== Roserade bullet seed ==
 
In BW098, Roserade used Bullet Seed, but it can only learn through TM in Generation IV.{{unsigned|HenryXYZ}}
:You can trade a Roserade with Bullet Seed to Generation V games, so it doesn't belong to the page just like [[Roark]]'s Geodude and [[Andreas]]'s Poliwrath.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#AB0909">電</font><font color="#063A73">禅</font>]]<small>[[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#fff" face="Tahoma"><span style="text-shadow:#000 0.2em 0.1em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Den Zen</span></font>]]</small>''' 22:05, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
 
== {{p|Parasect|Parasect's}} {{m|Sleep Powder}}/proposing notes column ==
 
I think that it should be noted in the row about Parasect using Sleep Powder that the use of this move was most likely a mistake and that the people who make the anime got Sleep Powder confused with {{m|Spore}}, a move with the same effect as Sleep Powder that Parasect can learn. I would just make a notes column in the table, but I'm not sure if it should have an entire column for notes if there are only notes in one row. If this lack of a significant number of rows with entries in the proposed column ''would'' be a problem, how many rows containing text in the column would be required for me to add the column? And can anyone think of any other notes that could be put in the first table? [[User:Mangaman13|Mangaman13]] ([[User talk:Mangaman13|talk]]) 17:24, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
 
== Not sure where to put this... ==

:That's not what this page is for; this page is for Pokémon that know moves they shouldn't.

== Hoopa shorts ==
 
In the first segment of the 'Hoopa Appears' shorts, several Pokémon are seen using Gust which can't learn it in the games. I want to add them, but I'm not sure how the episode is going to be numbered since I can't find their pages on the site. [[User:Watchermark|Watchermark]] ([[User talk:Watchermark|talk]]) 14:45, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
 
== Helioptile's Electric move ==
 
Are we sure it was Discharge? I watched the episode, and, in the dub at least, it was never explicitly stated that they were using Discharge. Is there any reason we can't just assume it was something Helioptile ''can'' learn, such as Thunder Shock or Thunderbolt? <small>- ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno.
