The Move Reminder, the Move Deleter and the Move Tutors are all back in the sixth generation and in Pokémon X and Y. These essential characters let you greatly influence the moves your Pokémon know.

Find out where to meet them and what each of these NPCs does.

 

Move Reminder

Pokémon XY - Move Deleter and Move ReminderIn Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, this character is found in the house to the north-east of the Pokémon Center in Dendemille Town. In the French version, the Move Reminder is actually a woman. It makes no difference, as her effect is the same: she lets you relearn moves that a Pokémon could have learned naturally at lower levels, in exchange for a Heart Scale.

For example, Amphinobi learns Substitute at level 43. Maybe you didn’t want to learn it, or you deleted it later to make room for another move. If you finally want that move, go and see the Move Reminder and she will let your Greninja use Substitute!

One very welcome new feature: you can relearn moves that your Pokémon had when it hatched from the Egg, which are only obtainable through breeding!

Move Deleter

Pokémon XY - Move Deleter and Move ReminderIn Pokémon X and Pokémon Y, the Move Deleter is in the same place as the Move Reminder, so in the house to the north-east of the Pokémon Center in Dendemille Town. As his name suggests, he can erase any move that a Pokémon knows.

What’s the point? It’s the only way to make a Pokémon forget an HM.
