In [[Pokémon battle]]s, moves may be used in unorthodox manners, especially to overcome type disadvantages. Invented, [[Moves not in the Pokémon games#In the anime|anime-exclusive moves]] have existed since the [[EP003|third episode]], and [[Counter Shield|custom-made moves]] have been prevalent in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''.

The process in which moves are learned is also markedly different. Even though it has been mentioned in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]'' and  ''[[EP245|Will the Real Oak Please Stand Up?]]'' that moves can be learned at certain levels, Pokémon seem to learn them more at random, including moves that are not learned by levelling up in the games (such as Pikachu's {{m|Volt Tackle}}). Similar to Move Tutors in the game, Pokémon can also learn moves by special training from certain people. For instance, {{an|Chaz}} helped Ash's Pikachu learn {{m|Iron Tail}}, and [[Clayton]] helped {{AP|Buizel}} learn {{m|Ice Punch}}.
