Smeargle's Moves in PokemonGo
Smeargle has a unique implementation in PokemonGo where it can copy the majority of moves from other Pokemon
This page lists every move Smeargle can learn, but also moves it cannot learn
Each time a new move is available in PokemonGo, People test if Smeargle can learn it. And to avoid any upsets, this page can tell you exactly what moves Smeargle can learn
and mirror via photobombs in PokemonGo
Smeargle will only mirror the first charge move, and ignores secondary charge moves completely.
Smeargle and its GAME MASTER Moveset
Smeargle's moves are hardcoded in the apps GAME_MASTER file detailing what it can learn via photobombing other Pokemon. This page ALSO outlines the moves that Smeargle can and cannot learn based on this implementation in PokemonGo
What moves CANT Smeargle Learn?
Lets start with moves Smeargle can not learn
I think thats what people will find more interesting
and finish with a list of the possible moves at the end.
Trying to mirror one of these moves, Smeargle will instead get a randomly assigned move.

there is no Pokemon that uses this move (including Blastoise).

Signature Moves, Unreleased moves & Newly released moves.
Signature moves being special moves that only a certain species of Pokemon can lean,
Like CRABHAMMER for Kingler or PRECIPICE BLADES for Groudon, tucked away under Niantics belt for a future release.
Un-released moves Moves found in the game that may be implemented in the future -
Newly Released moves moves that have been recently added to the game, but not manually added to the Smeargle list yet
