Pokemon Umbral Theatre 2: Devoted to That She-Devil, Charlotte Beaufort

Couple of qualms:

1) I don't remember if Pokebrids can use the moves that aren't available to their forms, but are available to the pre-evolutions to their forms. Though I notice you didn't actually list any moves available to Mamoswine's pre-evolutions, there. Still, part B) says that you would be able to use them.

2) Even though Pokebrids still have the most diversity, the fact is they have some moves that are worthless because they have access to more powerful versions of those moves. For example, Mamoswine has no reason to use Mud-Slap when it can use Mud Bomb, or Ice Fang or Powder Snow when it can use Ice Beam. Therefore, the argument "but I'm only getting a few powered-up moves out of Mamoswine's HUGE movepool" has slightly less weight when that huge movepool is reduced to the few moves that are actually, y'know, useful.

3) Though the "only moves that take Attack into account get powered-up" limitation is nice, how would you justify it ingame?
