How does it make sense that Staraptor can learn Close Combat?

Question

It doesn't have hands to punch...

Comments

It's a hunting bird. Close range and it's attacking

Game Freak logic. Staraptor doesn't have any body parts that move the sun, but you don't question the fact that it learns sunny day.

Answer 1

The user fights the target up close without guarding itself.

The game descriptions don't mention even once needing hands to use this move. Combat can be associated with punches, but that's never mentioned in the move description.

Hope I helped!
