What Is A Legacy Move?
Moves That Were Removed From The Game
Legacy Moves are powerful moves for a specific Pokemon that have been removed from the game due to an update, making them unobtainable today. It is unclear whether these moves will be put back in a future update.
Moves Still Learned By Pokemon
Despite the fact that some of these moves are unobtainable to their specific Pokemon, Pokemon that have learned the move before the update will retain the move. This makes them highly sought after for their rare movesets!
Extremely Powerful Against Specific Pokemon
Legacy moves can be extremely strong against specific Pokemon, depending on their Type and opponent's weaknesses. It would be wise to keep these rare moves in your lineup, just in case!
