If Ampharos can't learn Tail Glow? Then why can Manaphy? I'm not seeing anything firefly-like.
 

Moonlight_Tails

Nocturnal Trainer
This just came up in another thread. anorith/armaldo is based on a prehistoric shrimp. and it's dream world ability is swift-swim. So why the heck can't it learn Surf?

Tail glow doesn't necessarily apply to fireflies, just anything with a part of them that glows. Ampharos should learn tail glow.

Spiritomb/sableye with wonder gaurd :p broken.
Why can tyranitar use surf if it's made of rock? It would just sink....

Mew can get odd since it really small and you can Surf and Fly on it.
 
LOL. Why can't Gliscor learn fly. And why does levitating Pokes don't have levitate.

1. Scrafty needs Sucker Punch.
2. Serperior needs Shadow Ball, Psychic, Aura Sphere and Earthquake.
3. Seismitoad needs Ice Beam.
4. Stoutland needs Double-Edge and Close Combat.
5. Leavanny needs Brick Break.

That's five of many Pokémon that need better movepools.

1. Empoleon could have learned razor shell (If Shellder can, why not the piplup line?)
2. Snivy/Servine/Serperior needs Twister
3. Ferroseed/Ferrothorn should have had metal sound
4. Golett/Golurk deserved drain punch, would have worked so well for that evolutionary line
5. Machamp should be able to learn bulk up normally, a heavy weight-like fighting pokemon such as Machamp, as well as superpower

Can't think of that much, most of the moves that were left out will probably be included in Black and White 2 as move tutors.

Maybe because Shellder actually has a shell?
2. Serperior needs Shadow Ball, Psychic, Aura Sphere and Earthquake.
And dragon pulse. That thing would love the Dragon Pulse/Aura Sphere combo.
5. Drill Peck Excadrill.
The flaw in you logic is actually rather simple.
4. Stoutland needs Double-Edge and Close Combat.
I don't really see that thing getting Close Combat....Earthquake would make sense, though.
3. Zap Cannon on the Eeveelutions, like in Generation 2.
Though it wouldn't really make sense on any of them except Jolteon. At least in my eyes.

procrastina...
pretty much any pokemon that has the ability prankster should be able to learn nasty plot
 
Infernape should have Aura Sphere.
