Moves that Pokemon SHOULD be able to learn, but can't...

[Nacreous]

Pidgeot,Fearow,Noctowl,Staraptor,Swellow...all should be able to learn Swords Dance.They have extremely sharp talons,it's like those things have no use.Raticate can learn Swords Dance so why not the birds?

The bell Bronzong is based on is not that kind of bell...it doesn't make any sounds,it was used for rituals I think

It was based on the dotaku. While it doesn't have a ball inside of it (like, say, the Liberty Bell), it was meant to be struck from the outside. For a recent example, look at Odama for the Gamecube: Its central feature is a bronze bell, the same kind of bell Bronzong is based on, which you were encouraged to ring with the pinball.

For that matter, Bronzor is a mirror but can't learn Reflect.

Actually Bronzor can learn Reflect by TM but if you mean by level up then I get what you're talking about. Almost as weird as Lanturn not being able to get Light Screen (even by TM!!!)

Oh, Bronzor can learn Reflect through a TM? For some reason, I missed that.

No worries man, I somehow missed the fact that Shuckle could learn Rollout by tutor in HG/SS

Ampharos is the light Pokemon and is said to use its tail as a lamp.

Ampharos can't learn Tail Glow.

Huh?

 

[Savannah]

Garchomp should have access to Fly, Extremespeed.

It would make mine at least an absolute beast..

Tail Glow is called Fire Fly Light in the Japanese version so I guess that's why but Ampharos with Tail Glow would be pretty cool. Another thing why do people suggest moves like Brave Bird Empoleon and Air Slash Sandslash. Empoleon is more of a special attacker so Air Slash would be a lot better another thing Leafeon really should learn Seed Bomb through level up it learns Leaf Blade at such a high level it's annoying. Solrock and Lunatone should both be able to learn Moonlight and Morning Sun as the last move that they learn and Pidgeot needs Extremespeed.

Lol, it's already an absolute beast however it would make Garchomp slightly less predictable. Currently all Chomps are working either Choice sets or Swords Dance - Substitute ones, so adding a few more moves to it's movepool wouldn't be a bad thing.

Leafeon, Solarbeam through levelup. It mentions photsynthesis in many of its pokedex entries. Leaf Blade at a lower level as well and Seed Bomb at 36 so you don't need to breed/ relearn to get a physical grass move.

I take it that you meant something a little more heavy duty than Razor Leaf but it's a physical Grass move that Leafeon gets at a low level by level-up

 

[Indragon]

Haha, I remember the problem with Razor Leaf was that in Platinum, when you receive Eevee at Level 20, you needed the Move Relearner to get Razor Leaf :|

 

[Charmander#4]

Bidoof should learn Explosion. I would use it over and over and over...

Hi
These are mine:
- Skuntank: Ember (Why can learn flametrhower without ember (level up)?)
- Machamp: Sheer cold (Never misses >)
- Gardevoir: Psycho Boost (Xcept from SSBB)
- Pidgeot, Staraptor, Crobat, Noctowl, Ho-oh and its fellow birds: Dive (From the sky!)
- Snorlax: Kinesis (he likes to eat with the spoon)

Well those may not be very related, but some of them ae useful (or not). Sorry for my bad english

Anyone else agree with Hypnosis Mewtwo (it hypnotized Joy in the first movie) and Sweet Scent Stantler (in the anime it was said to have a sweet smell from its horns)? I updated the first post with those two.

 

[The Outcast]

Once again, Empoleon should be able to learn Roost

 

[Umbreon9]

^Well when you think about it, Empoleon is a penguin and cannot fly. Why would it need to roost?

 

[darkwolf227]

has anyone noticed that in the t.v show when ash saves dialga and palkia from team galatic cynthia's garchomp IS flying and hardly ever touches the ground...

 

[Moonlight_Tails]

Mantine can't learn Steel Wing
