Moves that Pokemon SHOULD be able to learn, but can't (new edition)

Dew Watatsumi

Water Type E-3
Wait, what should be Fighting or steel? o_O



Ok thank you. Its the unova starters that cant learn it. But Emboar can I think

Now, water/fighting or water/steel
 

Hikari Paradise

Forever Alone
They need to give Blastoise Shell Smash.
 

Demonslayer492

Got it Memorized?
Samurott and Torterra would like that too.
Also, Samurott should learn Dual Chop, Outrage, or Icicle crash

Samurott

Well Dual Chop, Outrage, and Icicle Crash.

I can see Dual Chop since in the Anime the one kid had it use both its swords Dual chop would be good and do good damge.

Outrage, It depends on if you want it to a physical or special attacker.

I guess samething with Icicle crash also.

And WHY WOULD it be Part fighting or steel D:<...

That would ruin Samuott

Mainly Samurott is based of a samurai and fighting would make a good typing for it. Steel however are usually the materials that most samurais use for their weapons. It would get the grass resistance, but it would only gives him the weakness to fighting, electric, and possibly ground

Doesn't the whole trio get Hurricane?

nope. Moltres gets Air Slash and Hurricane, Articuno gets Hurricane, and Zapdos gets nothing.

That's weird...
Most pokémon can't learn bite/crunch
Some heavy pokémon can't learn Body Slam, but Jirachi can
 

icebolt

Aerial Ace
Blastoise? Pfft. Give Shelgon Shell Sm---*shot*
Also they might've not have given Zapdos Hurricane because with STAB Hurricane and Thunder it'll be overpowered in the rain.
 

octoboy

I Crush Everything
Heracross should be able to learn x-scizor.

Kind of hard to slice things in an X motion if you're the singlehorn pokémon, isn't it?

I think that Jirachi should not learn body slam. I mean, that thing is just too small to keep paralyzing you
Yeah, and can you imagine it belly flopping straight on its tummy eyeball? Ouch.

Blastoise? Pfft. Give Shelgon Shell Sm---*shot*

Could you imagine it try to do that after it evolved though? Ouch.

Though I guess imagining just about any pokémon trying to use that move is ouch.

Heracross could use his claws. Also, when you look at the anime, you see Dwebble/Crustle jumping out of his shell and breaking an extra layer of his "skin". But really, it's kinda hard to imagine that for someone like cloyster

rock dog
What would CLoyster and Shellder look like whitout shell :O

Maybe Gastly or the living form of Gastly :eek:

I think Samurott should have Aura Sphere.
It just looks like it can learn it...

Close Combat would be good, I mean he is based off a Samurai, Shell Smash, Icicle Crash, and Outrage should work for him as well

Doesn't make sense why Serperior learns it
But I agree with Steelix

Zangoose needs to know how to Cut.

Zebstrika and Deino should learn Double Kick and Dark Pulse by level-up, respectively.

Serperior learns it because the only starters who learn it are reptilian(Except Swampert who is an amphibian I believe). It actually wouldn't make sense if Samurott learned it, going by this.
 
Flareon and Flare Blitz should be obvious, same with Entei.

Gyarados should be able to learn Crunch, although I never actually realized it couldn't until recently.

Actually, Gyarados should also be able to actually learn flying based moves in general, considering it is a "flying" type.
