how the heck do the Choice items work? it says they "Only allow the use of one move," but does it mean that they'll restrict you from using your other moves, or that it'll only AFFECT one move? Either way, how would you choose which move to power up? and why are these things regarded so highly if the former is true?

This is correct.

Why haven't you tested it yourself in-game OP?

The former, and because you can either switch out at the knock out, or you literally need nothing more.

That means you only get to use one move till you switch, but it makes the move more powerful
>mon used Surf
>Can only use surf till defeated or switched out
What's so difficult to get?

Quoted By:

The first move that the pokemon uses is the only move it can use until it gets switched out.

If you gave a pokemon a choice item and it used Tackle, it would only be able to use tackle until it gets switched out.

They're rated so highly because Specs and Band increase your attack power by 50%, and Scarf makes your pokemon 50% faster.

You pick a move, and as long as that Pokemon is out, it can only use that move. In return, your Attack (Choice Band), Special Attack (Choice Specs), or Speed (Choice Scarf) is multipled by 1.5x.

In order to switch moves, you have to switch out then switch back in.

Quoted By:

You can only use one move for the the remainder of you being out on the field and that move's power will be increased. If you switch out then switch back in, you will be able to select a different move, however you will be locked in to only using that move for the same reason as before. They are use so frequently because x1.5 damage makes all the difference.

It's an instant power boost unlike having to risk a turn to use Swords Dance/DD/CM/Nasty whatever

Choice items work like this:
You get a 50% boost, but you get locked into the first move you use. You choose which move to power up by thinking wisely about what your opponent is gonna do, and what move would be best played in the grand scheme of the battle. They're so highly regarded because IT'S A 50% BOOST.

After you choose your first attack, you will be unable to use any other attack until you switch out. For your other question; singles is cancer and encourages endless switching. Choice items see much less use in doubles.

Anon, you just gave a fantastic idea for a new type of item. Shame it'll never be implemented but that would be so cash.

I'm pretty sure at least 50% of /vp/ is under 18 including you. Maybe 20 at the oldest and that's being generous.

only viable ones are petal dance and outrage since the former two are awful moves. Keep in mind they still get confused though.
