Pokemon learning new moves

You think it's going to be possible in a future change a move of your pokemon for another one of their possible moves?
It sucks when you have a really good pokemon (with high Ivs) but just one move make it useless..

I would bet on that.
Maybe a move reroll or even a move select option.

Just a single change in one of the moves is all what I ask for.

Probably not anytime soon. But maybe eventually.

Yeah I'm 0 for 4 on decent Tyranitar movesets and I just got a 98% Larvitar and I know damn well I'm going to get my hopes dashed. The thing is some movesets are so useless like why the hell does mon x even have this move sometimes.

4 Tyranitars? Sorry, but how is that possible without spoofing?

Hatching and spawn points.

I got 4 Larvitar hatches on the first week of gen2.
If I kept buying incubators I would probably have 3 to 4 Tyranitars by now too. It's a fairly common hatch.

And there's also spawn points. I've already notice one in my city where I caught 3 Larvitars, each one in a different day. It seems to spawns a Larvitar every 3 to 4 hours. If someone got luck enough to have a spawn point nearby, It would make it easy to farm for candies with the help of pinaps.

My guess is this would be the new feature for the Easter event...

The whole rebirth thing for useless mons with the wrong moves fits in with that particular holiday.

You will need candies and maybe walk with it for 10km (like new Eevolutions) and new random move. Hopefully, you can never get the exact same move out of the 3 charged moves. It'd be nice if you can pick either quick or charged move to relearn.

I'd really like that. Even it is limited like it is only possible during the event, costing coins or more coins afterward.

Through limitation Niantic would not loose that much money that they might have gotten through incubators otherwise or could even make money making the moveset reroll expensive..

I think it will happen eventually, when the game declines to a point so that Niantic will want to introduce new incentives for players to spend money.

If they did it I imagine that all you would get is a reroll...meaning that you have a chance to get the same moveset and any of the other moveset possibilities - all for the cost of evolving another.
Ideally it would cost a premium, resulting in it costing more to reroll a moveset, than to just evolve another.

Why a premium...more than a normal evolve?
You would only do it with a great IV mon, so you will be willing to pay a little extra.
Why a normal reroll?
Otherwise people will just make 'ideal' moveset mons out of all their perfect...null and voiding the idea of IV totally.

It would force you to choose if you wish to pay the extra for your prefered specific mon, or willing just to evolve another.

I know my opinion is not popular, mostly because it doesn't just hand exactly what players want on a silver platter.
