it's just a joke about how it created the seas but doesn't have the ability that powers up water type moves.Why would it have any ability other than Drizzle?

It's a legendary with high stats *laughs* Kyogre is bulky pokemon and Torrent only works when the pokemon has low health. So it wouldn't do much after healing it in a battle. And there is no Belly Drum for Kyogre.it's just a joke about how it created the seas but doesn't have the ability that powers up water type moves.
Yeah, I imagine that was the logic for most of the bug/flying types, but yanmega, whose dex entry explicitly states that it is capable of carrying an adult human, probably should be exempt from this exclusion.To be honest having wings and flying does not mean a Pokemon can use the move fly. There seems to be additional requirements, especially for bug types, as there are only 3 bug type Pokemon which can learn the move at time of writing despite how many bug/flying Pokemon there are . Volcarona, Genesect & Vikavolt. Volcarona (which while not legendary was considered to be a deity), Genesect (which can do so via artificial augments) and Vikavolt (which has levitate rather than being a flying type). Notably not a single Bug/Flying type can learn it. While I personally would give Yanmega the move (as I personally think its at least as capable as Vikavolt) my guess is they don't think most bug types can soar high enough, breath at those heights or their exoskeleton can't take the force. In my opinion now Fly is no longer used as a HM i personally would give a few more strong bugs the move.
On that note i get a ridiculous speed occurence. When i'm Chansey exp and a Cottonee appears instead Why does a tiny Grass pokemon with a base value of 66 outspeed a lvl 100 Incineroar with a maxed speed of 186.Speaking of dubious Pokedex Entries Vikavolt has base speed slower than Arctozolt (even without its ability) . Arctozolt has Pokedex entries claiming it's slowness was the cause of its extinction and while those Pokedex entries are supposed to be false its not exactly supposed to be naturally fast and yet it can outspeed Vikavolt. At the very least I think Vikavolt should have got quick attack so that its dex entry makes some sort of sense.
Still very odd with a level 100 pokemon against a cotton/grass ball.Cottonee has Prankster so it gets priority on status moves like Sunny Day and Cotton Guard
They had that since G1 Normal types had a wide movepool. It's more absurd how many normal pokemon learn Shadow Ball. A complete opposite type move.I find it weird some Fairy Pokemon like Jigglypuff and Clefairy can learn the technique Flamethrower through TM.
Sandslash gets access to Icicle Crash through the move tutor in the Lanikala Mountain Pokémon centre, teach that to it instead. It's more powerful and doesn't cost BPAfter spending 2 days looking for a Alolan Sandslash trade and not being able to learn Ice Beam. I'm terrible at getting enough Beach/Battle Points (BP) to get Ice Punch. *grrrr*
i was updating my camerupt's moveset in bdsp the other day and it learns flash cannon for some reason
i'm not complaining, hell i was actually glad it was able to learn it. i just didn't expect that lol
For Vanilite, I think it’s that its reflective surfaces allow it to use the move.Yeah the distribution of flash cannon can be somewhat surprising. Even Pokemon like Spritzee and Vanillite can get the move which surprised me. Very useful for coverage but unexpected.
Starapator can learn Close Combat, BUT HAS NO FISTS its a bird!
It's more like recklessly fighting up close with body limbs or anything useable.The move never specifies you need fists. Falinks, Arrokuda, Sharpedo, Xerneas, Honedge and even other birds like Unovan Braviary can all learn the move. The move states "the user fights the foe in close without guarding itself. It also cuts the user's Defense and Sp. Def.". In the anime Staraptor repeatedly kicks, pecks, and hits the opponent with its wings at a fast speed. It requires some form of physicality but its less specific.
