In the {{pkmn|anime}}, it is uncommon for specific moves to be explicitly stated to be exclusive to a certain Pokémon species.
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, it is uncommon for specific moves to be explicitly stated to be exclusive to a certain Pokémon species.


Although some moves were occasionally referred to as a Pokémon's "special attack" during the [[original series]], in most of these cases, the move in question actually wasn't that Pokémon's signature move. A notable exception to this occurred in ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]'', where {{m|Lovely Kiss}} was correctly referred as the "special attack" of {{p|Jynx}}.

In ''[[EP070|Go West Young Meowth]]'', {{MTR}} told the story of his past, where he mentioned that he learned to talk instead of master {{m|Pay Day}}, which he suggested was permanent. This came back in ''[[EP096|Meowth Rules!]]'', where people of [[Golden Island]] expected him to create coins for them, which he failed to do. The concept was also mentioned during a quiz challenge in ''[[DP126|Classroom Training!]]'', where [[Candice]] stated that Pay Day could only be learned by {{p|Meowth}}; in ''[[JN103|The Future is Now, Thanks to Strategy!]]'', where {{an|Clemont}} identified {{m|Meteor Assault}} as a move only {{p|Sirfetch'd}} can learn; and in ''[[JN116|Pride of a Champion!]]'', where [[Hop]] referred to {{m|Trick-or-Treat}} as {{p|Gourgeist}}'s signature move.
