In Pokemon you typically have one character standing still and attacking. In a srpg you have a squad of characters on a large map. Both are turn based so they do have that in common (which is why Battalion Wars is not a srpg but Advance Wars arguably is despite both being in the Nintendo Wars series). The concept of limited movement is also necesary, and the ability to surrond the enemy. There is usually a limited attack range as well as a limited movement range. SRPGs are essentially like Warhammer 40k without the painting or expensive figurines.
