They get them from the other members of the evolution line. Hitmonchan passes down Bullet Punch to Tyrogue which can then evolve into Hitmontop.

Thank you.
I was confused, since they are all males.

No. Pokemon Hatched from eggs start out with 0 EVs.

(Parents do pass down their IVs though, but since you didn't ask about that, I'll just leave it alone)

Yes, if you put a Male Pokémon with a Ditto or a Female Pokémon with a Ditto, it will still be able to make an egg. However, Ditto will not be able to make an egg with pokémon that have no genders such as Giratina, Darkrai, etc. So basically any pokémon are compatible with it, except for those pokémon without genders. Some pokemon who are genderless will work, but just most of the time with lengendaries, it wouldn't.

Some Pokémon just can't be bred, but Ditto certainly works with genderless pokes in general-- I've had no problems breeding Porygon or Magnemite. Also Latios and Latias technically do have genders (one is set male and the other female).

So your saying if I put a ditto and an Infernape in the day care, then I'll have a chimchar?So there's no chance it'll be a ditto?If that's so, then I'd be very happy.

Just in case you didn't notice already, I'm new to breeding.
I was hoping for a chimchar, so I tried a female abra and a female raticate, but I only ended up with three rattatas and three abras.

The egg will always be the species of the mother when not breeding with Ditto.

Breeding a male/femal Charizard with a Ditto will get you a Charmander.

The Masuda Method: If one of the parents is a foreign Pokemon (ex. Pokemon from Japan, Europe, Australia, etc.) then the chances of breeding a shiny are quadrupled (from 1/8192 to 1/2043).

If I traded a (male) Pokemon with move tutor-only moves from Platinum to a Diamond or Pearl, would I be able to breed that Pokemon and get baby pokes with those moves? Or would I just have to breed the Poke I wanted and trade it to someone with Platinum to get those moves?


Also kind of unrelated to the question, but how do you get Heal Bell on Dragonite? It's available on Shoddy but I haven't seen it as a legit move for Nite when I looked on Serebii o-o;

Dragonite with Heal Bell was released when you Purified the Dragonite from Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness



And No. You can not pass down egg moves UNLESS they are already one of the egg moves already so

ex. Any pokemon with Outrage as an Egg move can learn it from a pokemon that was move tutored, if the breeding group is compatible

I put a Mightyana and a Leafeone (wrong sleeping)in the day care 2 days ago and they still haven't mated and I checked the egg groups and they are suppose to mate so why haven't they?

You have to move around to get eggs. The game determines if you get an egg or not every 256 steps so leaving them in there and doing nothing won't result in any eggs.

If the Day Care Man says something like: "They don't seem to get along very well", then that means that it will take a long while to get eggs.
If he says something like: "They seem to get along", then your chances of getting an egg are increased.
If he says something like: "They seem to get along very well", then your chances of getting an egg are at their highest.

Breed with different species.

Breed the girls with a male Pokemon from the Fairy Egg group, such as Pikachu or Roselia. :<

It's in the Ground Egg Group, so having Smeargle as the father is the easiest solution. Hitomchan, Electabuzz, Ampharos, Medicham, and Magmortar are also parents who can learn Thunderpunch via lv. up and pass it down.
