Some moves and abilities don't translate so well into actual RP, and logistics behind moves may not be so fun to follow by the book in RP. So for instance allowing creative use of moves.

And then there's the matter of having moves in general, which in game were designed to be learned progressively to suit the level group. What do we do here? Do we just get to choose 4 out of their entire learnable moveset? Or do we have to choose low levels, and if then how do they learn stronger moves? And then there's limit, we can keep to 4 sure, but there are just so many moves.

I have no clue how Abysmal is gonna handle it but.

Yea some moves and abilities really do not translate well into roleplaying (and some are broken...), but I guess the idea is that when you first get a Pokemon, its weak, usually its body isn't exactly battle trained (It only usually fights as a way to survive), and such it can't handle the power of stronger moves, as such it just can't use them properly (it can use them just not well enough to be battle worthy, If you catch my drift), as such It essentially needs practice or Experience, to be able to us the moves in a way that would be effective in battle.

but that's just my take on the whole idea
