Vullaby's Pokédex Entry in Black states that its wings are too tiny to allow it to fly, yet it can learn the HM Move, Fly.

Now THAT's ironic, people.

That is commonly said, but i believe I've heard somewhere that there are either 1,000 or thousands of possible different patterns of swirls on a spinda. ;spinda;

It's not thousands, it's over 4 billion.

Yeah, you're not gonna find a double that easily...

Did you know that Elgyem is the only Pokemon that learns Teleport as an egg move?

Did you know that all fully evolved starters from Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh can learn Earthquake?

In Unova, the only fully-evolved starter to learn Earthquake is Emboar?

Gothorita and Chandelure can't learn Hypnosis despite what some of their Pokedex entries state?

Magikarp, Wingull and Surskit are the only Water-types that can't learn Surf?

Golet´s arms seens to come out of holes in its body, and inside the holes you can see a strange ligth. The same light comes out of the whirl on its belly. Gulurk pokedex entrie says that if you take out its seal, its internal energy will go out of control. So, the ligth of the energy can be seen trought its whirls, eyes and fissure, and is the same as golet´s .
Golet´s left eye has the shape of an L turned to rigth, and the spike on its head is pointing to left. Golurk´s left eye has the shape of an L and the spike on its head is pointing to its right. The base of golet´s spike is dark blue, and the top is light blue. The base of golurk´s spike is light blue, and its top is dark blue. Golurk´s right shoulder is dark blue, as well as the square on its right hand. Golurk´s left shoulder and hand´s square are light blue. Golet´s right "shoulder" is dark blue, and its left one is light blue.

Um... okay?

Volcarona is the only Bug type pokemon that can learn Fly (Genesect doesn't count since it hasn't been released yet). And it's not even part flying type at that....
