Tell me if you've heard this before. You got your FM ready for your Pokemon, and you're all set to put the moves on them when you realize - You have to go to their Bulbapedia page just to figure out what move is what type! Is it a Natural Move? Or a TM/HM Move? Or maybe a Tutor Move? For all 10 moves, per Pokemon. Having to sort them into all three categories, all just so you can buy the right ones to match what you want. Wasting precious time that you could be using to watch the newest episode of Dragon Ball Super when the series comes out, or fiddling around on Showdown, or doing posts.
Now, some might argue that its for the immersion. And this would have been okay UNTIL the Move Packs were introduced, most recently awarded as part of the writing prompts not long ago. These babies when won, could be turned into ANY of the three categories you liked. Now, here's an idea.
Why not get rid of the middleman? Re-purpose the Move Pack as an item in itself instead of just being the packaging to turn into a TM/HM, Tutor or Natural Move item. Then remove the TM/HM, Natural Move, and Tutor Move items from the SuperPoke Mart and make the Move Pack available for purchase for 30 Dots. They're all the same price anyway. It makes assigning moves easier, and instead of having to sort into categories, all you have to do is just buy 10 Move Packs and a Macho Brace. Saving time and effort in the end using an item that already exists on-site.

Just to clear up something about that move pack: Click This LinkAs stated in that post, you were supposed to post in and claim your move pack, stating exactly what types of moves you were taking for the pack. I left the freedom for you to choose, but it was not to be an "any move any time" type thing. Technically, since no one has claimed any of their items, no one actually has access to any of their move packs or items earned from the event. Hope this helps to clear a little bit of this up.

I'll PM you about the claiming thing, on that note, but the ideas still there even if I got the description wrong on the move pack (Even if the idea was re-purposing the move pack and replacing those 3 items anyway).
