    Who/what was your biggest HM slave in all of the Pokemon games? Meaning, the one that had 3-4 HMs attached to it.

    Also, what game was it on and what level was it (if you can remember)?

    Mine is:
    A level 3 Zigzagoon with Cut, Surf and Rock Smash (I might add flash for good measure XD).
     
    i dunno. I think my Golem on Pearl. I had no idea that you needed some many HM moves just to get through Victory road, so I taught my Golem Rock climb, strength and rock smash.
     
    Let's see if I can remember o_O

    The first ever game (Pokemon Red) I must have been about 8 years old, had no idea what I was doing so my HM moves were distributed amongst whatever Pokemon I had on my team at the time xD Yay for teaching Charizard Cut!

    Same goes for Pokemon Silver/Crystal.

    By the time the Advanced generation came out I was a bit more intelligent and avoided teaching HM moves to Pokemon I planned on using... Zigzagoon took most of the HMs, some random water type for Dive, Waterfall or whatever and another random flying type for Fly.

    Diamond version... Golduck has Rock Climb and some other moves (really can't remember)... Hoothoot flies me around and also has Defog. Can't remember where all my other HMs are, since I haven't had to use them for a loooong time.
     
    Oh,well. My Peach(breelom) had Cut and Flash for being unusefull,my Haru(Blazeken) had cut,omg. I removed it. Victreebell(Angelus) had cut..and it was it's onily purposebut.... the biggest.... Ina,my lvl 87 Lioone on Sapphire. Surf,Rock Smash,Strenght,Secret Power(yay for bases). Well, it could take down Steven (except for Metagross and Cradily) and Sidney alone with Strenght. (Altaria could do Drake and Kyogre did Phoebe and Glacia.) And it was a preety good figther for...a slave. I think Bibarel on Pearl when I get it.
     
    I have a level 15 Bibarel for Cut, Rock Smash, Strength and Rock Climb. I have a Staravia (which I'll probably evolve into a Staraptor when I can) for Fly and Defog.
     
    Lets see...

    In R/S/E I used Gyarados and Tropius IIRC. Both low levelled, since there was no need to evolve them. And that covered all 8 HMs pretty well.

    In D/P I used Bibarel and Pelipper I think and they had 7 HMs between them, only Waterfall went to Floatzel which I had carried around in my ingame party anyways.

    @Kagami, How did you cover Dive and Waterfall with those two?
     
    My Azumarill on my emerald was my HM slave for that game.
    It was level 100 and it had Surf, Waterfall, Strength, and Dive.
    Too bad I lost my emerald game save file. I would migrate it to my Pearl if I could.

    Heh. I just realised I put down the wrong one. It was Gyarados and Tropius in R/S/E. o.o
    Gyara with Dive.
     
    Well, I remember having a zigzagoon at level 4 which knew strength, rock smash, surf and some other HM move. I had a pokemon which knew the other 4 as well. this was in my Ruby. I've never had a lvl 50+ with a HM unless it was Strength or Surf. Maybe the occasional training made a lvl 50 with waterfall and dive.
     
    In GSC, I put HMs on the Pokemon I use to battle.:P
    Cut on Meganium, Flash on Magneton,Fly on Pidgeot etc

    In RS, my slave was Marill. I can't remember level (maybe around 3-4), but it has
    Waterfall,Rock Smash,Strength.

    In FR, I used a Gameshark Mew :P
    It was 10, and it knows Fly, Flash, Waterfall, Cut.

    In DP, the HM slave favourite-Bibarel
    Level around 30+, had Rock Smash, Strength, Flash Waterfall.
     
    On sapphire it was my starter Treecko(evolved into Grovyle and named ''Twigecko'').

    Starters canlearn most HM's that are given to you.
     
    I had a Biberal with
    -Rock Smash
    -Rock Climb
    -Strength
    -Waterfall

    and then a Golem (I decided to at least evolve him for my pokedex level) with some HM moves that I don't recall. I'd usually use one of these tow whenever I needed them.
     
    Mine has gotta be bibbarel it had surf rock smash strenght and rock climb
     
    Level 18 Bibarel
    Strength
    Rock Smash
    Rock Climb
    Cut

    Seriously, Bibarel makes for the best HM Slave other than Arceus or Mew. Nintendo knew what they were thinking when they made this "useless" Pokemon.

    Other HMs (Surf/Fly/Waterfall) were distributed appropriately and to Pokemon that could use it well in battle. Like Gyarados with Waterfall.
