Why does Greninja get 2 signature moves?

Jul. 15, 2014

Greninja gets both Mat Block and Water shuriken, Delphox and Chesnaught just get 1 signature move, Spiky Shield (Chesnaught) and Mystical Fire (Delphox). I know Mat Block isn’t “technically” a signature move, but it’s the only one that learns it. Thanks!

Unknown, you would have to ask Game Freak themselves. Mat Block isn’t part of the Kalos Starter Trio’s signature moves though. Game freak sometimes do weird things. Like Slowpoke Learning Flamethrower and Yanmega not able to learn fly even when it’s pokedex says it can carry an adult.

Edit: Mat Block is now Greninja’sonlyPokemon-specific move. In fact, the all of Kalos Starter Trio specific moves can now be learned by another Pokemon. (Mystical Fire: Mismagious, Water Shuriken: Accelgor, and Spiky Shield: Maractus/Cacturne)
