I might have missed something at level 28 and 40, as it seems to learn a move every 3 levels. I'll check when I get to the move relearner.

in the OP it says double hit is lv 18, its actually lv 19

I don't know if this is the correct place for it, but I've been testing Parental Bond

Fake Out: Hits twice. Says "hit 2 times"
Sucker Punch: Hits twice. Says "hit 2 times"
Power Up Punch: Hits once, boosts, hits again, boosts again. Says "hit 2 times"
Giga Impact: Hits twice, then recharges next turn. Says "hit 2 times"

It seems to turn them into multi-hitting moves.

I'm never awake when the Hex chick is giving out Double Team, and Work Up is no longer a TM, I don't have a boosting move to test that interaction.

The second hit definitely hits for less damage, but it's hard to tell exactly how much less. It looks like it's more than 50%, though. But it's hard to tell for sure by looking at the health bar. Would be much easier to test with a second person in wifi, but even then it's not completely reliable.

Just confirming power up hit moves double the power up when used with Parental Bond. Power-Up Punch will hit twice and power up twice, raising the attack stat two stages. Some testing should be done with skill swap to see if Parental Bond can be put on other Pokemon. I would imagine that this could be a great strategy in double/triple battles.

First edit: Also wanted to confirm that multi-hit moves like Comet Punch and Double Hit are NOT affected by Parental Bond. Sorry, no 10 shot Comet Punches for you.

Second edit: Going to do some research on recoil moves. I'm thinking both hits will result in recoil damage, but I haven't seen for myself yet. Gonna breed one with a Cubone/Marowak with Double-Edge and test it. Will post back with results.

This may be a bit out of place, but Kangaskhan has never been able to learn Knock Off by the 4th/5th gen move tutors. It's erroneously mentioned as a possible move in the B/W analysis for it, as well the thread for it in 6th gen OU (now defunct due to being uber). There have also been mentions of it in the ubers thread, but another user pointed out the incompatibility already.
