Request: Pre-evolution moves

[Scyther]

I have a request. On the main pokemon pages, could we possibly make note of moves that the pokemon cannot learn directly, but can be learned from previous evolutions?

I use the wiki to help select move sets for my team, and it can sometimes be confusing to miss a move that the pokemon can know, but is not listed on the page because it can only be learned by a pre-evolution. Many of these are not even egg moves.

For example, Spore on Breloom.

Would there be any problem with adding some separate lists for these?

It could be useful (I know I've missed a few of the sort myself), but the issue being that it adds even more to the already rather lengthy Pokémon pages. Perhaps a small section only on the Pokémon who learn a move in the manner would fit alright, but it's not really a big priority at the moment, so it might not make it into any articles for a while, if at all.

That is a very good idea. It gets annoying to have to have every single evolution up in a different page. I agree, it would be very useful.

We'll be revamping the move section completely soon.
