How creative can you get with your first free checklist?
Move Tutors
Move Tutors can be found in many places in Pokemon Sun and Moon. These special NPCs teach your Pokemon a variety of moves. This page details where to find each one and what they teach.
In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, all the Move Tutors and their locations return from Sun and Moon. A ton of other Move Tutors with new moves also appear. Jump to the Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon Exclusives section here!
Move Deleter
With the absence of HMs in this game, the Move Deleter isn't as useful as he once was. If you want to use him to implement a certain moveset strategy, you can find him early on in your adventure inside the Pokemon Center in Hau'oli City on Melemele Island.

Move Reminder
The Move Reminder unfortunately can't be found until the very end of the game, inside the Pokemon Center on Mount Lanakila of Ula'ula Island, right before the Elite Four. The Move Reminder will teach your Pokemon a move it could have learned at previous levels, Egg Moves it knew when it hatched, or moves it will be able to learn at higher levels. Using the Move Reminder is the only way Alolan Marowak can learn its signature Ghost-type move, Shadow Bone.
The Move Reminder will provide her services for one Heart Scale per Move
