Pokémon Ranger/Field Moves

From StrategyWiki, the video game walkthrough and strategy guide wiki

Field moves are general abilities of most Pokémon (not all of them) that help you clear obstacles and complete objectives. Tap an obstacle to see its strength rating. Each object that can be affected by a Field Move, as well as each Pokémon that can use a field move, has a "rating" of 1, 2 or 3. (For example, a Pokémon with the Field Move Cut 3 can clear an obstacle with the rating of Cut 1, 2, or 3, but a Pokémon with Cut 1 cannot clear an obstacle with a rating of Cut 2 or 3.) There are nine different types of field moves in the game. Each field has a different purpose and set of things it can do. In general:
