Most are familiar with the four move restriction in place in the Pokémon RPG franchise. Pokémon Mystery Dungeon keeps this tradition in place, but allows for an attack to be learned multiple times or as many times as it learns an attack in a progressive evolution - usually peaking at three moves or at the four move restriction.

The immediate advantages obviously permit greater endurance and longevity for a move before the consumption of a Max Elixir. The moves, however, are otherwise treated as separate moves (and thus occupy one of the four slots) rather than one single move with greater [[PP]]. Having a duplicate of a move also allows for a higher rate of usage of that particular attack, regardless of PP. It is logical to assume this because the artificial intelligence seems to randomly choose moves based on it's range capacity. In other words, if a Pokémon is within range of a move (offensive, defensive, et al.) it will randomly select one from of the moves with the capacity to be used. Other aspects of a seperate slot occupation involve it's isolation from dungeon traps and in powering it up with a Ginseng
