User talk:Guiltysparkzz/Tutor TM Merge

After having edited a lot of these pages, I think this is an amazing idea. The only issue might come when a Pokémon learns a move through TM, but doesn't through tutoring within the same generation. See Helping Hand. The fact that everything post-Gen 1 gets the USUM mark just doesn't look great (it is not as bad for level-up moves). However, this is really needed now that old-school tutors are basically TRs. Also just makes the entire thing cleaner and smaller. I am no authority when it comes to deciding this, but you have my full support.

  • I figured the precedent set on the TM chart RE: having a whole column of game superscripts was enough to justify using it here. In the case of where they learned it by TM and not Tutor I just have them marked PE which works well enough imo! LGPE does just kind of throw a wrench in things in general because there are very few cases that need the superscript label without it. --Guiltysparkzz (talk) 20:08, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
