DLCs for mainline Pokemon games, including Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, do a great job of expanding the overall content available to players. One of the factors that players look forward to from these expansions is the moves. Every DLC for the main franchise has introduced new moves for creatures to learn and use in battle.
With this in mind, many Pokemon Scarlet and Violet trainers who are interested in the competitive scene may want to know what new moves were added to the franchise's library in preparation for the battles to come. In addition to these new moves, players may want to know what TMs are now available, as well as how they can easily grind the resources required to craft them.
