If Sleep Talk targets a Pressure Pokemon, then will Sleep Talk or the move chosen will have extra PP usage?

Question

Let's say using Sleep Talk brings in a damaging move targeted at a Pokemon that has Pressure as its ability. Then, will Sleep Talk have a extra PP usage or the move that comes from Sleep Talk against the Pressure Pokemon?

Answer 1

No move would have an extra PP usage.

I checked this through a replay; no move looses an extra PP. This is because, you are using Sleep Talk as a move, which is used at Giratina with Pressure (bear in mind that Sleep talk is not directed at a Pokémon, you are using the move, and it would choose another random move from your moves except Sleep Talk if you are asleep).
You are using Sleep Talk as a direct move, which is choosing Scald as an indirect move, which would mean that no move looses double PP, as Scald came through a Sleep Talk, indirectly.
This can also be seen in the replay, Sleep Talk looses 1 PP, whereas Scald looses none, as it's used through Sleep Talk

Does this apply to other moves that call other moves, like metronome, nature power, and me first? Bulbapedia says pressure makes snatch lose more PP.

Pardon me if I read the question wrong, but the asker asked only for Sleep Talk + Any attacking move.
About those I ain't sure.
