Confused about something with eggs

[Bleakdragon55]

Recntly after cloning my Blastoise and a Ditto, it gave me an egg.

Usually with my cloning, it get moves as it would have at level 5.

When my new squirtle hatched, it knew some awkward moves

Tackle
Tail Wip
RAIN DANCE
ICE BEAM

How did he learn those moves? How can I get the full advantages for breeding?

[Elly]

Your Blastoise new them?

[marhawkman]

Also was it a male blastoise?

[Pieman]

The male passes down the moves, the female passes down the stats. But since ditto was in place of the female, it got the male species and moves. Elementary.

I'm a boy, I just like Dark Magician Girl.

lol, thanks for that up

Additional Comment:

Mudkip
Growl

Move Deleter is in Lilycove.

[Bleakdragon55]

I know, but he jsut had to trade me is HM slave

[marhawkman]

LMAO!!! ya' know I'm typically HAPPY when stuff like this happens. So what if you need to delete a move or two? Tackle is even less useful.

[Bleakdragon55]

true,

Also, can baby pokemon with ditto as mom learn baby moves?

[Shadowphoenix225]

If ditto is mom and pokemon is male, than moves will be passed on if possible.

[Bleakdragon55]

I know that, but will baby moves be learned if there is room?

Like if I breed to get a Larvitar using Ditto, is there a chance of it learning Dragon Dance?

[Shadowphoenix225]

Only if the father knows dragon dance can a baby pokemon have dragon dance.

[Bleakdragon55]

That sucks, looks like I am going to have to get a female Tyranitar :(

[Kijuna]

Just breed until one hatches. No big deal.

[-Demosthenes-]

Yeah, Tyranitar has a 50\50 male\female ratio. Not hard to get one.
