[NOTE] Having removed the blind-idiocy from my eyes, I noticed this forums rules on qhat type of questions to ask here. I apologize, and if can be done I would much appriciate an admin/mod to move this to the correct area. Of course, send me a message to where you moved it so I don't end up loosing it =( - thank you and sorry again.

Couldn't find a proper section in which to ask this questions, so I thought the section labled "newbie" might have been the best option. My question is this, is it possible to have an oddish that knows surf through the means of breeding? Directly, oddish cannot learn surf using the HM. However, there is the water cactus pokemon ;272; (forgot the name, I apologize) that can learn surf and is also in the same egg group as oddish is.

Could I then have the Cactus-water pokemon learn surf (it being a male) and then breed it with a female oddish/glume/vileplume to transfer surf down to oddish? If not, is there any other method that I can use to teach oddish surf?

Thank you! ;182;

According to bulbapedia you can't teach Oddish surf at all (and they are usually right).
Don't forget that the cactus pokemon (Ludicolo) is part water.
 
If you check the pokedex on the website, you can find a list of what moves a pokemon can learn via breeding, and what pokemon they learn it from.

As Tsubodai has pointed out, Ludicolo is a Grass/Water type, so it can learn Surf. Just because something is in the same egg group, does not meant all the moves they can learn are breedable.

This is Oddish' pokedex page, specifically for egg moves.

In future, you're best option is to post in the Gen Discussion Thread for whatever game it is you are playing. So Black or White would be 5th Gen, Diamond or Pearl, 4th Gen, and so on.
