Pick your Moves Carefully
- Along with Turn Preview comes a feature returning from Prince Fluff’s USUM DE: per-battle PP scale!
- Every move has between 1 and 10 pp, but the player’s team is auto-healed after every battle
- For example, a powerful no-drawback move like Thunderbolt will have around 5pp
- Many moves with high-but-imperfect accuracy have been raised to 100acc, but have lower PP
- Many status moves have 2-3pp, like screens and tailwind
- Certain powerful moves have **just 1pp**, such as Protect, Follow Me, and Spore
