View source for Signature move

'''Signature moves''' are [[move]]s that can only be learned by a single [[Pokémon]] or a very small select group of Pokémon by level-up (with the exception of Pikachu's {{m|Volt Tackle}}), usually in the same evolutionary line. They are mostly seen in [[legendary Pokémon]], however, some other Pokémon have moves specific to themselves or their evolutionary line. Note that any of the moves included in this classification (except for {{m|Chatter}}) can be learned by {{P|Smeargle}} by use of {{M|Sketch}}, making Sketch and Chatter the only moves that are truly exclusive to one Pokémon legitimately.

==List of Pokémon and their signature moves==
Note: All levels listed are the level the Pokémon will learn the move as of [[Generation IV]].

==Trivia==
* A {{p|Dratini}} that knows ExtremeSpeed is obtainable in [[Pokémon Crystal]] after answering a quiz in the [[Dragon's Den]].
* Although {{m|Megahorn}} was {{p|Heracross}}'s signature move prior to [[Generation III]], it should be noted that it is still the only {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon that can learn the move.
* A {{p|Skitty}} with Pay Day can be obtained from a special {{Pkmn|Egg}} after depositing 500 Pokémon in [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire]] from a Game Boy Advance game pak.
* It should be noted that {{p|Deoxys}}'s signature move, {{m|Psycho Boost}}, can be learned by the [[Shadow Lugia|Lugia]] from [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] once it has been purified.
* A {{p|Pikachu}} that knows {{m|Volt Tackle}} and {{m|Surf}} is available as a prize for beating all the Colosseums for the first time in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]].
* A {{p|Darkrai}} with {{m|Roar of Time}} and {{m|Spacial Rend}} was available as a special giveaway to commemorate the opening of the [[The Rise of Darkrai|10th movie]].
