I had a Machop and I trained it till lieve 16 then traded it to a guy in the game for abra in Oreburg city.
I trained abra to level 17 and he didnt learn confusion :(
What do I do? Will it learn confusion at level 16? Or I messed up? What should I do?
I am new to D and P

Did you let your abra evolve at lvl 16 or 17 because kadabra learns confusion on 16.
And abra doesn't learn anything by leveling up.

Unfortunately you've lost the chance for your Kadabra to learn Confusion, as you evolved it after the level which it learns the move (which is level 16). The next offensive psychic move your Pokémon will learn is Psybeam at level 24 if that helps.

(By the way, you can re-teach your Kadabra Confusion later in the game, though it's not really relevant to your question.)

You aren't exactly doomed. Since you are so early in the game I would suggest just catching another Abra on Route 203, then grinding it to level 16 so that it will evolve and learn Confusion as a Kadabra.

Alternatively, you can leave it out at the front of your party and let it level up 8 more levels until it learns Psybeam at level 24. It may sound a bit arduous, but Kadabra will receive a boost in the experience it gains, since you received it in a trade.

If you really want for it to learn confusion then waste 1 heart scale and let it re-learn its level-up moves which is Confusion.

As said, Pokemon will only learn the move at the level they are meant to, not after (otherwise for every time you level a Pokemon it'll ask you about all those moves you decided for it not to learn and that'd just be messy). As said, you'd have to either try another Abra and make sure it evolves at level 16, or wait it out with Kadabra until it learnsa another move, or use a Heart Scale via the Move Relearner in the 5th gym town. The last option? Teach it a TM move - it can learn a few so see if there's any you do not mind using on it.

If you have any other questions, please ask them in the Help thread sticky which is at the top of this section. Answered, so closed.
