I recall Masuda actually mentioning Pokemon being able to learn 4 moves as one of the big differences between Pokemon and people when asked if humans would be considered a from of Pokemon, like we're animals in real life. I believe it's the same interview that asked about the Mew-Ditto theory, what would happen if a human ate a Rare Candy, if the Pokemon world was supposed to be Earth, and some ther random shit.
