Hey Smogon,

If I breed a male Gyarados with Earthquake to a female Adamant Magikarp with an Everstone attached, will Gyarados pass down Earthquake to the child?
 
... because Magikarp cannot learn any egg moves, TMs or have anything passed to it beside tackle splash and flail.

You'll have to use a new Earthquake TM on it.
 
All right, another question.

If I were to breed a Metagross with a TM move to a Ditto, would the children carry the TM move?
 
At this rate, we should call it the "Watch your breeding plans go down the toilet" thread :U

To make this not spam, Aura Sphere or Vacuum Wave on Lucario?
 
Beldum can not learn any TMs so they wouldn't pass down to the child even if Metagross learns the TMs.

If this is the case, then how come in certain Pokemon (i.e. Gastly/Gengar), if I were to breed a Gengar with a TM move that Gastly can't learn (i.e. Thunderbolt), the Gastly will inherit the move in question?
 
Actually, Gastly can learn Thunderbolt by TM, So if gengar knows it then so will gastly. It doesnt work with beldum because the only move beldum will ever know is Take Down.
 
So basically, the only way a parent Pokemon can pass down a TM move is if the first evolution form can learn the TM move in question too? Which means that Gengar can pass down Thunderbolt to Gastly, but Gyarados can't pass down Earthquake to Magikarp.
 
Victory Road. You have to hop over the little bike ramps to get to it. It's also available at the Battle Tower for too many Battle Points.
 
You generally aren't allowed to advertise anything here, clans / forums and whatnot. It doesn't say anywhere, but it is accepted etiquette here
 
What's a good alternative to Soul Dew on Latios?

I plan on running Dragon Pulse/Grass Knot/Flamethrower/Calm Mind (odd, I know, I just want to test it out) on PBR, but if I can use Soul Dew, I'll use Recover>Calm Mind. Should I use Life Orb or Leftovers?

Edit: I'm an idiot, Latios can't even learn Flamethrower...even if I could, it would be more effective to run Dragon Pulse/Flamethrower/CM/Recover! Maybe I should go for BoltBeam?
