Move Deleter help

[Mamanon]

In emerald I have a Gyarados that have Surf and i want to forget it. But when I go to the move deleter he says: "Hm, your Gyarados doesn't seem willing to forget surf". Do anyone know what the problem is? Please answer.

Your Gyarados is the only pokémon in your party/box that knows the move Surf, If you teach another pokémon Surf then your Gyarados will forget Surf

Meanwhile, I can forget cut, though none of my other pokemon know it?

^Cut isn't a needed HM, surf is. that's why you can forget Cut and you can't forget Surf. I never use Cut in my Ruby

Sweet. I hate Cut. Cut =/= Uber Haxxors.

^pokemon like to help trainers with needed hm's, so some pokemon don't want to forget them, but, why deleat surf- it's the best water move in the game

What if you have a crap move, your in a cave, too lzay to go out and start again, so you delete the crap move teach it the hm, when done delete the hm and let it learn a new move/heart scale?

I try to avoid my Frontier Team to have HMs

^ Then put surf on a new pokemon, say Marill. They're deadly common.
