Really Confused...

[sin]

I'm trying to breed a sneasle with both Ice Punch, and pursuit. This is what I have done so far:
-Got a Hitmonchan and leveled it up to Ice Punch
-Bred with a Buneary to pass on Ice Punch
-Bred Male Buneary with Female Sneasle and got a Sneasle with Ice Punch

I thought I could then breed the Sneasle with a Raticate to get pursuit but I think only the moves from one parent get passed on. So yeah... right now I'm thoroughly confused.

I am aiming for a standard Weavile...

Weavile @ Choice Band
Jolly EV’s: 6 HP / 252 At / 252 Spd
- Night Slash
- Ice Punch
- Pursuit
- Brick Break

Thanks.

A Smeargle with Ice Punch/Pursuit can pass it down if you manage to get it both moves.

Otherwise, I think the only way a parent can get both is by learning Pursuit and then being turtored Ice Punch at the BF in Emerald. I know Zangoose learns Pursuit by level up and can be tutured Ice Punch. I don't think there's any other way, but I could be wrong.

Yeah, that's right ^

It's easier to use a Smeargle when breeding.

Rank Up!

I'm just gonna reaplace pursuit with swords dance. Is that bad?

Weavile's subpar DEF may not be able to set up a swords dance. Weavile's known more for hitting hard and fast. I personally gave my Weavile Aerial Ace to deal with the Fighting types that cause it the most trouble (especially Heracross the demon beetle).

Oh, so if you had to pick which would you choose, pursuit or ice punch? I think I might just trade for one with pursuit and ice punch.

Actually Weavile is sturdy enough to come into most special attackers and get in a Swords Dance: it depends on prediction really.

Oh yes, Ice Punch > Pursuit IMO.

Go with Ice Punch, Night Slash is a decent option over Pursuit when you can't get Pursuit imo, while you'll simply need Ice Punch on him. It's his best weapon.
