Can any move tutor move be passed down via breeding? Or I guess which ones can/can't?

Can any move tutor move be passed down via breeding? Or I guess which ones can/can't?

some can some can't

bulbapedia has a full list of egg moves for each pokemon dude if you look on the "via breeding" or w/e it's called bit & there's a move tutor move in there then it can be passed down



for example:

totodile can learn AncientPower via move tutor & through breeding so it can be taught & passed down

charmander can learn AncientPower via breeding but not via move tutor so it can be passed down but not taught

geodude can learn AncientPower via move tutor but not through breeding so it can be taught but not passed down



it varies for every pokemon dude - bulbapedia is pretty up to date with the details

If i send out 2 pokémon with pressure in a double battle, will the opponents pokémon lose 4 PP instead of 2 when they use an attack?

I'm pretty sure it does, although my research seems to indicate that it's mitigated in some way.

What would happen if I had Ditto use Transform on a Zoroark that is morphed into, say... a Ponyta. What would happen, would my Ditto transform into the Ponyta-morphed Zoroark or would Ditto transform into Zoroark and then morph into the last pokemon in my party?

I'm not sure if this goes here, but I didn't think it deserved its own thread. I'm also assuming it's been discussed before.

Look at Viradian Forest in Pokémon RBYG.
Now look at it in Pokémon GSC.

It was apparently fixed in HG/SS but did we ever get an explanation? Was there a fire?

It got condensed so everything would fit on the cart.

If you knock out Snorlax in HGSS, will it come back after defeating the E4? Please only answer if you're absolutely sure. I know it applies to Legendaries but I'm not sure if it applies to Snorlax in particular.

I haven't played HG/SS but Bulbapeida says it does respawn. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Snorlax#Game_locations I'm quite sure you can get Snorlax either way, by trading.

Is there an EASIER way to catch Mesprit in Diamond without hacking? Because I'm getting fed up try to follow Mesprit around Sinnoh, all because of it's stupid and ridiculous version of "Hide and Seek".

No.


However, I recommend to keep on flying to Hearthome city, until mespririt shows up in a route directly connected to it.


(Hearthome's exits are all gated)

Erm. I probably should've looked there in the first place, lol. Thanks.

Try going back and forth between Jubilife and the 3 routes it leads to (not including the western one because it has a gatehouse). When it gets close enough, take a guess and walk to the route which it seems most likely Mespirit will advance to.

I always do like this:
Make sure you got your Marking Map (13) on your Pokétch. Go to any place where there is grass/water/cave close to a route/house. I usually switch between Sandgem Town and Route 219. Going back and forward until the monster "Mesprit" on the Marking Map is on Route 219, then I use surf and waiting for it to pop up. =) Be sure to use mean look or anything else so it can't escape you. And save when you start doing it. Good luck!

Did they bring back the slots in Black and White version?

 

[AlexandraTheZoroark]

Okay, now I know how to make finding Mesprit easier, but now, what kind of Pokéball should I catch it with?

Well, I think you should try with Ultra Balls, or if you wait 'till night, try out with Dusk Balls.

Also, I think Time Balls are good if your battle gets really long.

I hope that helps you

Problems, though:
I tried Ultra Balls, and, even though it's health was low, escaped. As for the Time Balls, well, Mesprit isn't even ATTACKING my Poké's.

As for the Dusk Balls. . . if I try it at night, my dad'll catch me and take away my DS for a trillion years.

Any other ball options?

just change the time on your DS to night :/

 

[Ivysaur]

Nope.

LucarioGirl, you could always change the time and put it a few hours ahead. Dusk Balls are easily your best option. If not, just keep trying with the Ultra Balls and you'll get it eventually.

 

[SamPilgrim]

I agree.
Also, you should totally get his HP 'till 1... use a Pokémon that knows False Swipe for that
