Move Tutors Guide

This section of our guide has been provided by rate_me

Move tutors are non-playable character who can teach your Pokemon a move which they normally wouldn't learn level up or through TM/HM. In Diamond and Pearl, there were very few moves to be learned, and those moves could only be learned by small groups of Pokemon. However, the addition of more move tutors in Platinum has allowed more options for movesets that weren't possible in Diamond and Pearl. These move tutors can teach your Pokemon moves in exchange for a certain combination of 8 colored shards, which can be found underground.
