If a moves runs out of PP while holding a choice item, will they struggle or pick a new move?

Let’s say I have a Kangashkhan with Choice Band. He uses DynamicPunch. When the PPs of this attack runs out, does Kangashkhan use Struggle or he can now use another move?

She will Struggle. Obvious answer.

The Pokemon will be forced to use struggle. It was only able to use one move, and when you are using only one move and you cannot use it anymore, you struggle. This can happen like you said due to PP loss, or if the opponent uses disable or a similar move.

From personal experience i can confirm when you run out of pp while choiced you do struggle, its happened to me before with scarfogre using thunder on arena trap dugtrio.
