Pokemon That Can't Learn Moves They Should
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 фев 2025
- With over 1000 Pokemon and 900 moves, there's gonna be a few questionable combinations. Some of them exist even though they shouldn't, like Wooper and Gastly learning elemental punch moves, but today we're looking at the opposite side of that coin. What Pokemon have moves that they can't learn, even though they should for whatever reason? Why can Bellossom learn Moonlight despite evolving with a Sun Stone? Does Matt proofread his scripts properly? All that and more in today's video, as Matt and Elias take you through Pokemon that can't learn moves they should.

Hi there, ZAPATOS is in fact not spelled with an accent, my bad
Misty Terrain also doesn't power up fairy moves, it just powers down dragon type ones, so that rant about Ortega was kinda unnecessary
If anything, Ortega is playing it smart by getting rid of terrain since it just prevents status on grounded Pokemon... the status it is already immune to.
I don’t know why Misty Terrain is like that, like it would make more sense like that. Maybe because it’s not called Fairy Terrain that’s why it’s not called that but that’s stupid. Now I would say it should but Tapu Fini and Fairies in general are kinda good.
I was gonna comment abt that... Bruh
Dusclops can't use Swallow. OK pokedex, your'e telling me that this pokemon is a walking black hole that can swallow anything whole and keeping it in, yet apparently it can't swallow its opponets?
Swallow would always fail if Dusclops learned it because it can't learn Stockpile. Plus the move isn't swallowing your opponent, it's swallowing the energy you build up from stockpiling
Misty Terrain weakens dragon moves against grounded targets (because fairy is totally not immune to dragon, amiright), doesn't boost fairy moves like other terrains do with their types.
whoooooooooops
It also stops you from getting statused. Unless you're flying type ofc
And ironically enough, all but five pokemon that learn the Move Misty Terrain either aren't Fairy or become Fairy, that being Gallade, Volcanion, and the Quaxly line. Gallade gets it because Ralts and Kirlia can, Volcanion I think only gets it by TM because of it movie counterpart being a bodyguard to Magearna who is Fairy, and the Quaxly line gets it probably becaue of the fact Quaquaval's design makes it look a little fruity(not even being it as an insult, just find it funny they went for it)
@@caiusdrakegaming8087 maybe it gets Misty terrain because mist is a form of water vapor (I think) and it's signature move is steam eruption
The only moves to be boosted are Terrain Pulse and Misty Explosion and both are kinda ass 💀
what ppl very VERY commonly overlook is the fact that moves r named differently in different languages. sounds obvious yes but it makes things like growlithe not knowing growl make some sense. in japanese, growlithe is called gardie (taken from the words guardian or guard dog) and growl translates to cry. the move is described as being a growl BUT in a cute way. a pokemon like growlithe, based on its pokedex entries, is more likely to bark when it or those its loyal to r threatened and fight directly by biting instead of growling cutely to throw the opponent off. now im sure theres cases when taking the original names into account in which pokemon a should have move b bc of aspect c but just doesnt for who knows what reason, game freak is very good at making game design choices other game devs wouldve implemented years earlier. ppl just have to realize its not just the english names that exist. there r valid complaints here like wugtrio not being able to learn tri attack despite everything tracking in both english and japanese but a lot of these can b debunked by doing some quick searches on bulbapedia or looking just a little more closely at the dex entries ur citing
See, the problem is that when you’re localizing/translating games, this is the kind of thing I think you’d want to make an effort to avoid. If you wanna say Growlithe is more likely to bark than growl, that’s all well and good. I don’t agree with that 1000%, cuz plenty of Pokemon can learn Growl despite no direct references to growling in the Pokédex or anywhere else. But that’s besides the point. In that case, the responsibility falls on the localization team to make decisions that don’t clash with each other. By the time Red and Blue came out internationally, Red and Green had been out in Japan for a while, so there was already a general idea in place of what the original 151 Pokemon were all about. So the folks translating the game would probably know that there’s a fire dog Pokemon, that there’s a move that lowers attack by 1 stage, and that the Pokemon was incompatible with this move. So ideally they would give the dog Pokemon a name that isn’t derived from the name of a move it can’t learn. So during the development of gen 1, something was off, whether it was the folks originally designing the Pokemon and assigning moves, or the folks in charge of translating the game for international audiences. Some people call Growl’s English name a translation error, but I don’t think it’s as simple as that.
The Japanese word they use for CRY can also translate to BARK, so if you ask me Growlithe should be able to learn Growl either way. The word in question refers to a whole host of animal noises. Barking, roaring, cawing, and so on and so on. A lot of people in this comments section (not you though) have just said “well growl’s name in Japanese is CRY” and not elaborated. Translation is a messy thing, but at the end of the day, a lot of the other dog based Pokemon can also learn Growl, so I think it makes more sense as a starting status move than Leer. If Pokemon could only learn moves that line up EXACTLY with their biology and dex entries and such, movesets would be so much more restrictive because there wouldn’t be a lot of options left. Whichever angle you look at Growl and Growlithe, it’s not a stretch to say that it’s a move it reasonably could have access to. Moves having different names in Japanese doesn’t mean it’s not valid to say stuff like Growlithe can’t learn Growl
That whole ramble might have been entirely incomprehensible, but those are my thoughts on the whole thing
Woah you put A LOT OF EFFORT for answering jst a single comment good job@@MEPlaysGames
@@MEPlaysGamesif you want to take it a step further then every Pokemon should learn growl because every Pokemon has a cry. So I think we can determine that cry might mean something specific to the game designers
Ambipom can learn tail slap in ultra sun and moon by breeding which got aipom banned in little cup
whoops
In any case it lost access to the move since then, which is pretty silly
"Magnazone doesn't have 3 heads."
The two smaller heads on it's side: "Am I a joke to you?"
I dunno, I always thought of it as one big head, as opposed to a main head with two smaller ones attached
I kinda though of it like he has eyes on his shoulders but i guess if you look at it like those are magnemites it could be counted as 3 heads
Magnezone might have one head tecnically, but his one head is 3 heads fused together, and he still has 3 eyes, and presumedly 3 "brains", or whatever the hell magnemites have, so it still makes sense for it to use triattack imo
Well however many heads you wanna say Magnezone has, I would say Tri Attack is fair game, cuz I don't think anybody would disagree that Doduo has two heads
@@MEPlaysGames thats true, but i dont Doduo should learn it tbf lmao
Technically magnezone still has 3 heads but one way bigger than the others and more fused than magneton so... yeah it can learn tri attack and makes sense.
@@MEPlaysGamesCourse it has three heads -- one's always just conveniently hidden behind another. Boom, problem solved
11:05 Pterosaurs are not ancestors to birds in any what whatsoever, would be like saying that crocodiles are bird ancestors. They're arcosaurs, but they have no direct relationship. But yeah, should learn brave bird
Yeah my bad, I biffed that part of the research but my point still stands. It's close enough that I wouldn't bat an eye if Aerodactyl learned Brave Bird
Gotta love how Gyarados can learn more Electric moves [Which its 4× weak to] than STAB flying moves lmao
How can Stoutland not learn Body Slam, Stouland is like the most normal pokemon of all time, and Body Slam is just a bigger Tackle, plus its a big dog, a tackle from a big dog can hurt
Oh right I think I watched False Swipe Gaming’s Stoutland video and they pointed out that Stoutland lost Return and couldn’t use Body Slam as an alternative
I wanted to know this answer so badly in gen 5. I kept tackle over take down because recoil can be a bitch, only to find out i was stuck with that being my main stab move until i taught it return
To this day, I still don't understand why ferrothorn can't lern spiky shield.
cause homophobes can’t learn it
To be fair Growl is just "cry" in Japanese and of course Growlithe also has a different name.
In some cases it's important to remember the localization isn't always 1 to 1 for better or worse.
They should then keep that in mind when doing translations..naming it after a word, that it cannot do, is rather silly ain't it? And the translation people can see the moves it can get as they're already finalized by that point typically (and if they aren't why can't they just add growl or whatever?)
Klinklang not being able to learn Rapid Spin was always very weird. But what's really criminal is Entei not being able to earthquake.
Silicobra also doesn't learn Mud Shot while it's whole thing is spitting sand
The move Pounce, introduced in Gen 9, is unlearnable by any cat based Pokémon.
That's probably a localization issue like how Sucker Punch is actually just Surprise Attack in Japan which is why lots of pokemon without arms can use it so the Pounce thing is probably just that in reverse
@@devinnall2284 It's called Pounce in Japanese as well. That's why I said that no cat-based Pokémon can learn it.
I really like how this video isn't really professional and you guys keep interrupting each other. Just makes it feel more alive!
Sorry to be that guy, but as a huge dinosaur nerd, I can't let this slide
Pterosaurs are not ancestors to birds the same way as dinosaurs are
Dinosaurs are the ancestors to birds, but such close ancestors that birds are officially recognized as dinosaurs by the scientific community
Pterosaurs are not though, because they aren't dinosaurs, the last common ancestors between the first dinosaur and the first pterosaur split off way too early for either to exist
So think of pterosaurs as the great uncle of birds while dinosaurs are the great grandfather
Also, Charizard, Magmar, and Ampharos can't learn Tail Glow despite having bright things on their tails
Yanmega can't learn Fly even though the Pokédex says it's "easily capable of transporting an adult in flight." Garchomp can't learn Fly either despite the Pokédex talking about it flying at high speeds. Bronzong can't learn Heal Bell despite literally being a bell. Also, Zangoose can't learn Cut, Black Kyurem can't learn Ice Punch, Garbodor can't learn Poison Jab, Gholdengo can't learn Surf, and Dialga can't learn Future Sight.
Just finished this video from my recommended. Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun with this and some interesting stuff I didn't know about for sure. Wish you didn't make Flying pink because that was wigging me out lmao but I think you guys have a good vibe and the video is nicely put together!
Best wishes!
4:20 because you can only use it when terrain is active, the terrain is set up so you have access to a powerful move. If you don't wanna use your 130bp steel move, you can use the fairy moves you have. Hypothetically a viable competitive strategy.
not competitive viable, more like a gimmicky fun thing to do in regular play
@@kimotokirby1601 i mean in like certain showdown formats not tournaments or smth. if starmobile were allowed they'd definitely be viable. Steel roller is a pretty good move in monotype since a lot of teams set terrain.
Plus, Misty Terrain doesn't even boost Fairy moves ...
@@sephikong8323 YEH IT NERFS DRAGON MOVES TOO LIKE ??? so weird
10:20 why can the GOLDFISH learn crunch??? It doesn’t have a mouth…
I love the moments of banter in these videos, brings more entertainment and just makes me smile. :3 You two have great comedic chemistry.
Honestly that's one of my favorite parts of running a channel with my friends, so I'm glad people seem to enjoy how much nonsense I leave in the videos
@@MEPlaysGames I hope to be like you lot one day... though, my editing skills are very doo doo, heh. Plus my OBS just keeps messing with the audio, still trying to figure things out you know. Also, thanks for responding to my comment, I really appreciate it.
I think they are both charisma deficient nerds with zero aura but I can see where you're coming from. Kinda wish they stayed on track more often
Wigglytuff should definitely get moonlight. It evolves with a moon stone. Also boom burst
Brave bird's description: "the user tucks in their *wings* and dives dangerous"
Pikachu will bite you if you grab their tail, but that doesn't mean that Pikachu's cute little mouth is powerful enough to actually deal damage in battle.
I love the banter *so* much. This channel has podcast energy with the scripting of a normal video and I love it. You get a subscribe!
Damn, the quote about Zamazenta remaining weak aged like milk, bro is tearing up now
If you want a proper reason why Revavroom can't learn U-turn, it's due to it being associated with dragonflies in it's Japanese name.
If you want a funnier reason, it's because it would be a Hit and Run, and that sounds like an Illegal U-turn to me.
Tons of non-dragonfly pokemon learn u-turn...tons of non-bug pokemon learn it!! And pokemon clearly isn't against illegal moves as the dark type is FULL of cheap shots and illegal moves.
i think espeon should be able to learn solar beam and agility. most psychic types can learn agility, even really slow ones, and espeon's its literally the sun pokemon so solar beam makes a lot of sense.
Wish they gave umbreon moonblast since it’s the moonlight pokemon
@@herpderp1013 it won't really use it, but hey, it fits
@@kimotokirby1601 it can actually use it to hit fighting types and other dark types
@@_friedtofu Umbreons spe atack stat is 60
I've never understood how Earth Power, which fits perfectly in Typhlosion, can't be learnt by this mon while freaking Politoed can
Me who discovered the removal of dream eater on the hypno line... When it's concept was all about eating dreams
Too bad Wailord has terribly low Defense for Body Press.
Yeah when we say "big beefy boys" we were mostly referring to their physical size, as opposed to their defense stats
Same with snorlax
*_One must imagine wailord body pressing a skitty_* -some rando in r34.
I feel like it's in a similar vein but Zacian didn't learn Play Rough by level up in Gen 8 , plenty of fairy types and even non fairy types learnt it by level up , but the legendary fairy dog that's all about attack had to resort to using a TR to learn it
Clauncher not learning Rock Smash makes sense when you actually see what the move itself is. Rock Smash is not JUST breaking a rock, it's punching it so hard that it breaks. Clauncher doesn't have the physical strength to shatter a rock with a physical blow, which is also what the move does in battle.
In a world where HMs still existed it would be neat if Clauncher and Clawitzer could effectively use Rock Smash without actually knowing the move by just using an Aura or Pulse Move to reference the Pokedex though.
The reason why charizard can learn shadow claw is that Charmander has shadow in its name, as it's supposed to be casting shadow on cave walls, but the whole thing got lost in translation.
That's also probably why Growlith can't learn growl, both the move and the Pokémon got translated weirdly
Fun fact in the gold spaceworld 97 demo doduo has a baby form, with three heads suggesting that doduo has a third underdeveloped head
Garchomp can't learn Fly, yet we have SEEN it fly in both the anime and in recent games (and the Pokédex outright says it can fly much like a jet)
Gengar, the shadow pokemon, a pokemon that sneaks in the shadows, can't learn Shadow Sneak
Revavroom should be your poster child for this video. It just screams, "Why doesn't the literal car engine Pokémon get this move?", and not just for U-Turn. Flame Charge, Trailblaze, and Rapid Spin all come to mind, but I personally believe it is the most uniquely qualified non-Rock-Type Pokémon that should learn Accelerock. Revavroom is an engine fused to, and powering, a rock slab like a car; if anything should learn Accelerock, it's Revavroom.
Also give my boy Flare Blitz
0:41 i think the reason is what is causing it. The move rock smash is a physical fighting move meaning they are breaking it by brute force hitting it with there body, claucher breaks them by shooting them which would make it a special attack that breaks them.
Kingambit is one of the most sworded Pokemon I've ever seen. Even its valiant mustache is made of sword. Yet Kingambit cannot learn Sacred Sword. You know... the dedicated sword attack.
While it doesn't make sense that a doggo cannot learn something like a cry, the Growl-ithe thing is just a translation issue, just like how splash doesn't seem to make sense to not be water type even though its actual name is hop.
Growlithe's name is Guardy, a guard dog, hence why it can learn to bark, while growl is (an animal's) cry (not like, bawl your eyes out). Again, still doesn't make sense that dog cannot just cry, but at least it's not as insulting and just the translation team making a doodoo.
In my state you're not allowed to do u-turns in most roads. I always figured revenue room once I allowed to do u-turn because it's illegal in so many places
Rapidash can learn Jump Kick, but not Blaze Kick, despite having feet that are on fire. However Genesect, which is 4x weak to the move, *can* learn it.
Typhlosion, the Volcano pokemon, doesn't learn Earth Power, a move that mentions eruptions in it's description, yet so many pokemon you wouldn't think can learn Earth Power can
Drain Punch is not as widely distributed as it should be. Infernape has only just got access to the move in Gen 9. Pawmot can learn all of the Elemental Punches, Mach Punch and has the Hidden Ability Iron Fist, but still can't learn Drain Punch.
Think the best explanation for dragapult learning dragon claw and not shadow claw is that since there are/were so few dragon type moves they made sure at least one was a staple with every dragon type pokemon. Hell, even Altaria can be taught it and it doesnt have anything that even remotely resembles claws on its body. Not all ghost type pokemon can learn shadow claw and youd be surprised how few can. Its like the case with the gastly line in gen 2 not being able to learn the elemental punches until theyre a gengar, but in gen 7 they can ALL learn them
The parasite Pokémon having no leeching moves has me heated ngl. I wish I didn't know it existed
It actually might be a good thing that dragapult can't learn shadow claw because giving it any physical ghost move better than phantom force would get it banned from OU immediately
You forgot Nosepass. Nosepass was not able to learn Head Smash. Head Smash was a rock type move and Nosepass was a giant rock head. It was able to learn it as an egg move in gen 4 but no compatible Pokémon learned it to pass it down. Finally gen 9 has brought it back as an egg move.
Kyurem Black is an ice type with a massive attack stat. Despite this, it couldn't learn any physical ice moves other than its terrible signature move until gen 9, where it got icicle spear.
It's got an arm covered in ice and can't learn ice punch. Here's a list of pokemon that can learn ice punch:
Poliwhirl
Abra
Ghastly
Maril
Wooper
Wismer
Probopass
Audino
Ampharos, the light pokemon, said to use the LIGHT from its TAIL as a beacon, can't learn the move TAIL GLOW. I mean, I get that its the signature move of Volbeat but with the signature moves of certain pokemon being given to others, i think its time for Ampharos to finallg learn it. It would also make it so much better as a tanky special attacker.
And then theres Gen 6 Tyrantrum learning Aerial Ace.
Now do the opposite, Pokemon that learn moves they shouldn't.
Everytime i see one of these videos no one EVER brings up the low list of pokemon that learn crabhammer and the potential blessing of slapping it on pokemon who have pincers. Scizor along with the paras line would LOVE the fire coverage,and then other contenders could be the dwebble and gligar lines who dont need it as much but would definitely be a pretty neat tech option.
Gligar can learn crab hammer
You know what other fossil should get Brave Bird? Archeops. I don’t think there’s a single Pokemon more likely to crash-land into an enemy than Archeops. Being a bad flier is kind of its whole thing.
And it’s not like they’re not doing it because it wouldn’t work with Defeatist, because it’s been able to learn Head Smash from day one.
The dynamic of this channel is the best
İ also fought fire team star boss first too
Garchomp still cant learn Dragon Dance, even though there are several non-draconic or reptilian pokemon who can.
Garchomp with dragon dance will be broken
@@ajrich1726 Power Creep has become too high so its not that bad
Zapdos may now learn Hurricane but it still hasn't got Air Slash
In gen 4 games I was literally so confused when I found the duskull line could learn dream eater and nightmare yet the only way to put stuff to sleep was with secret power in a grassy terrain. Like you’re telling me it can learn will-o-wisp to burn and toxic to poison when not hypnosis to literally put it to sleep??? And it somehow also has rest, sleep talk, and snore??? I really think they just saw the word dream and nightmare in a rush and thought it would work with rest or something???
Wtf how do you have so little subs for this production value?
4:40 Misty terrain does not boost Fairy-type moves, which is weird in its own. The only thing Misty terrain helps the starmobile is protecting it from status effects at this point.
6:53 This happened due to balance reasons -after releasing several strong behemoths ever created- I assume. Spamming Ghost moves with 142 Spe is not really that metagame healthy -yet they still gave us Spectrier and Shadow Calyrex, then Flutter mane- as Ghost types don't have a lot of resistances.
10:53 Imagine it learned both of these. This thing has like 150 speed which can instant OHKO most weak pokemon
If you feel mad about your movepool, remember that Kartana can't learn Breaking Swipe.
I dont think that dragapult should get a more reliable physical Ghost move. That's pretty much what makes it balanced and interesting
Ampharos can't learn Tail Glow despite the fact that it has a bulb on the end of its TAIL that can GLOW! Its used as the source of light for a freaking lighthouse! It should be able to learn Tail Glow! For feck sake GameFreak! Also please bring back Signal Beam, my boy Ampharos deserves that too.
Your first argument makes no sense.
The reason why Clauncher doesn’t learn Rock Smash is because Rock Smash is a physical fighting move. Clauncher’s Pokédex specifies that it LAUNCHES our jet propulsions (in other words, Special Attack). Therefore, it makes sense that Clauncher can’t learn Rock Smash, since Rock Smash is physical, yet the strength Clauncher uses is Special.
16:17 the funny thing is if it had more Hp and defenses it would be a great wall.
Garchomp not having Dragon Dance is a crime
At least my boy Dustox can learn Moonlight lol.
Yuji having a signature move black fist. Inumaki's new signature pokemon is voice blow. Sukuna is world cutting punch.(sukuna is a legendary)
These guys are a joy whenever they go off script
Fun fact: Charizard cant learn Wing Attack anymore except as an egg move
Ive always been pissed off that Alolan Executor cant learn Growth even though its a super massive plant that's neck grew 20 times longer than its base form.
Also because then it would have the fabled sun boosted Growth into massive Stored Power combo
Growl's Japanese name is 'cry' so it makes sense Growlithe doesn't learn it.
The Japanese name of the move means CRY as in just a general animal noise, the same way the sounds Pokemon make when they enter the battle are called cries. So my point stands
@@MEPlaysGames I don't understand that logic. Every pokemon that can make a sound should learn growl?
All I’m saying is that the Japanese name doesn’t change my point that Growlithe should be able to learn it. The Japanese name for the move is often used to refer to barking, which Growlithe does a lot of according to the Pokédex. Just because the name doesn’t mean the exact same thing in Japanese doesn’t mean the move doesn’t make sense. There's nothing about Growl that suggests that Growlithe shouldn't be able to learn it. Plus there are moves that nearly every Pokemon can learn. Captivate and Confide are universal TMs in certain generations, and they lower stats in the same way
In all fairness, I feel like some of these are missing due to balancing. But some of them are no brainers.
Rock smash is a physical move that the pokemon performs by physically striking a rock with their appendages. Clauncher's dex entry communicates that it destroys rocks with pistol-like shots. So while it *could* be able to learn rock smash, I think it makes sense that they can't
From that dex entry, I feel like I could learn Snipe Shot if they want to share Inteleon's signature move.
@@compy3835 they probably could
Sceptile doesn't get spore or sleep powder despite having spores on its back.
Because the move spore in japannese is mushroom spore
They omitted Poltergeist on Dragapult maybe to prevent It being OP, the same with Aegislash, also they omitted Moonblast on Togekiss, Dragon Dance on Garchomp.
However now they gave Heavy Slam to Metagross they should give as well Poltergeist to Dragapult.
And not giving it Shadow Claw is totally ridiculous.
Dragapult not learning Shadow Claw is likely for the best since a good physical ghost move would break it.
No it won’t
@@dylhansime9582 Consider the following:
Dragapult with a usable physical Ghost move that isn’t Tera Blast Ghost means it can use Tera Blast Fighting. Coming off its 120 Atk with blazing fast Speed, perfect STAB coverage in Ghost and Tera Fighting would insane. Not to mention Dragon Dance and Dragapult’s unpredictable nature. Can’t be so sure its Band, DD, Specs, Boots, Screens, Mixed, etc until it uses 1 or 2 moves.
Even without Tera, you still have a solid Dragon Dancer that has great STABs that are hard to resist, on a Pokemon with amazing speed and great defensive typing.
U-turn is actually a technique in boxing where you avoid a crosse i think so it makes sense for revavroom to not learn it
That's not what the move is referencing though
@@MEPlaysGames funny video though
But, it’s a bug-type move despite what you said, not a fighting- type move. If U-Turn references what you said, it would be a fighting move.
Misty Terrain doesn't actually boost the power of Fairy-type moves. It just cuts the power of Dragon-type moves, plus blocking status and a bunch of other bullshit.
this is a giant reason why competitive pokemon isn't 10X what it is now
Dialga is the God of Time, who can't learn Future Sight.
Palkia is the God of Space, who can't learn Teleport.
Giratina is the God of Antimatter, who can't learn Explosion.
Love submission's description at 15:20
When I learned that Annihilape can't learn Shadow Punch, I yelled, "THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!" and I got some funny looks. But just WHY?!! A Fighting Ghost Type that can't learn Shadow Punch, I just don't get it, if anything, Shadow Punch should be Annihilape's signature move!
Somthing that affected me today was that galarian farfetch'd & Sirfetch'd can't learn false swipe but normal farfetch'd can. Heck even binacle can learn false swipe. So dumb
This is like those videos from AuraGuardian I used to watch all those years ago, but actually feel fresh and new (unlike what CacophonousCorphish is doing - stopped watching after their first video). Good job!
Misty terrain does bot buff fairy types in any way. It just halves the damage from dragon moves
I subscribed to you guys right away because you're fun to watch!
13:18 terra blast not surviving past gen 9 (dynamax cannon made it into gen 9)
Growlithe's name in JP is Gardie btw. I think it's important to consider when discussing a Japanese game, the Japanese origins of the pokemon before saying things like "Why can't it learn x move? It literally has x in its name!". That being said, Growlithe is a canine and should know growl for that reason alone, though the Japanese name for growl is nakigoe "cry"
Dragapult can't learn shadow claw because of clear body, it doesn't even have a shadow.
If Gen 10 gets released in the Future maybe they'll fix that
another movepool oddity: Arctozolt can learn Thunder Punch and Mega Punch but not Ice Punch
Obligatory mention of how kyurem, with its arm made of ice, can't learn ice punch. Meanwhile, Pokemon like wooper and gastly can
Guys lets not forget DUGTRIO GETS SHADOW CLAW?!?!
I really thought Moonblast gets power up after using Moonlight
Crobat is not a bird?
Well thanks to you my knowledge has been improved today
Bats are not birds
@@Matt-oq1sr and so are pterosaurs.
Volbeat and Illumise had Signal Beam as a signature move when they were introduced in Gen3. Then it got distributed to other pokemon. Then for some reason they removed the attack from Gen9, lame, but at least Volbeat and Illumise weren't there either. Then they brought back those pokemon with the DLC, but not Signal Beam. So not only did their signature attack stop being their signature attack, but then it got removed entirely and they didn't even bother to bring the move back when the pokemon came back.
At least Tail Glow came back. But Ampharos still can't learn it. Yes, its called Firefly Glow in Japan, but Manaphy and Xyrcitree can learn it and it those sure ain't fireflys, so let Ampharos have it already.
Chomp with DDance. 😂😂😂
