:I think moves variations are supposed to be ''similar'', and that doesn't mean just in effect. A move that you can only use 5 times has a very different feel from a move you can use 40 times. Admittedly, though, if they do have similar power/effects, most moves aren't likely to have nearly so drastic a PP variation. I guess I'm saying I think there is justification for some limit perhaps; on the other hand, for something like Reflect and Light Screen, I do feel it is clear that they are variations. ...I just don't know (don't have any idea) if it would really be best to totally get rid of PP as a criteria. | :I think moves variations are supposed to be ''similar'', and that doesn't mean just in effect.

:In short, I think I could go either way on it. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 08:57, 15 July 2015 (UTC) | :In short, I think I could go either way on it. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 08:57, 15 July 2015 (UTC) | ||
::A 5-PP move and a 40-PP move would usually have elements outside of PP that would make them incomparable. In most cases, PP differences are trivial at best. You're never going to see a move like Water Gun have the same PP as a move like Hydro Pump anyways. Removing this criterion would simply make the definition of a move variant more clear and concise.
