So, I’m sure there will eventually be a master list somewhere, but I went through all the Gen 1 Pokemon to see what a second move costs. To be honest, some of the values are sort of baffling and feel almost arbitrary. lol
Legendaries and Mythical cost 100K stardust, so I left them out. I went through every Pokemon whose final form was in Gen 1. Scyther, for example, evolves later so I counted it now.
For the sake of space, I will list the 10K and 75K. The 50K list is HUGE!
Some of these make a lot of sense, but others are odd choices. Farfetch’d, for example, costs 50K to add a second move. I don’t see anyone doing that. The Gen 1 starters and Gyarados cost 10K, which is kind of a steal. Jynx, the Hitmons, and Onix cost a whopping 75K though!
UPDATE: Just went through Gen 2. Even more baffling.
I thought of that, but it doesn’t always hold true. Swinub, for example is a 2K egg … but Piloswine has a 50K cost. Porygon is from a 10K egg, but also has a 50K cost.
That mostly matches up, but that’s such an odd way to go about it. Buddy distance doesn’t really equate to usefulness in PVP. It should definitely be a different tier system.
That way, if someone REALLY wants to add a second move to their Militank, it doesn’t cost a gut wrenching 75K. lol
Don’t hold me to this, but I think they are just available. My son just showed me. Swipe down on certain Pokemon and you can obtain 2nd Charge move. I did it for a few of my Gyrados so far. It does cost candy and dust.
Yeh, I’ve seen the option to be able to get the second move even on my stupid Kids account. I wasn’t sure if it was a Primary - Secondary type scenario where the Primary one is only available for Raids and Battles and the Secondary is included for PvP.
