I need a HM slave that can learn most of the HM if you guys know any and im thinking of Xatu for a flying type. Im about to face the 6th gym leader.

Thanks!
 
Let's see here...

take away Fury Swipes from Slaking, make it Hyper Beam, and maybe have Skill Swap on it (if u can). Change Slash OR Yawn for Shadow Ball.

On Zang, trade Pursuit for Slash, make QA Brick Break.

Swampy shouldn't have Bide, make it have this Moveset: Ice Beam, Earthquake, Surf and something nice. For the HM-slave, try looking at a dex on the internet to find slaves, there is pretty many. And don't waste Xatu on HM's, make it part of the team (it's one of my faves).

It's what I would teach them, I don't know what you might think of it.

Snore is rubbish.
 
Teach it to Zangoose. But as others have said, just get multiple ones from FR/LG...unless you don't have that either.

Would that be ok on Swampert with sassy nature? I dont breed. What moveset shall i give to Slaking if i use earthquake on Swampert?

Yes, that moveset would be fine for Swampert.

For Slaking? Use Earthquake. Swampert learns it by level-up.
