Move Tutor

A Move Tutor is a non-player character who will teach a Pokémon moves that are not normally able to be learned through level up, TMs, or HMs. They are not to be confused with Move Reminders.

There are currently seven Move Tutors in the game, however three of them are limited to a small group or just one Pokémon.

Suntouched City

The Move Tutor's house is the house closest to the gym on the cloud level. She will teach Grass Pledge, Fire Pledge, or Water Pledge to a starter Pokémon from the core series of games.

Moves taught

Grass Pledge	Grass	Special
Fire Pledge	Fire	Special

Helios City

An old woman sitting on a bench south of the Jade Tower is willing to teach several moves to the player's Eevee that it would normally only learn after evolving. The one downside to these moves is that the player's Eevee cannot evolve while any one of them exists on its move set. However, Eevee requires some of these moves in order for its Mega Evolution to reach its highest potential.
