OK, whose freaking idea was it to
replace Mightyena's
Crunch from its Generation 3 level-up moveset with
Sucker Punch in Generation 4? It can learn all the elemental fangs, yet it can't learn a
teeth-based move that's native to its
own typing?! And yet some freaking non-Dark-type genie like Tornelos can learn it? Granted, I haven't had the opportunity to put Sucker Punch into practice; I just dislike it because you have to rely on the opponent just to attack. Predict wrong, and the foe may get a free twofold stat boost. At least wrong predictions while switching don't make you a sitting duck...most of the time. >_>
EDIT: Hmm...OK, apparently, Poochyena can learn Crunch and Sucker Punch at Levels 53 and 49, respectively. But honestly, why does Mightyena not get the same treatment? JUST STICK CRUNCH INTO ONE OF MIGHTYENA'S RANDOM LEVELS LIKE IT WAS DONE WITH POOCHY! TRAINERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL LEVEL
53 JUST FOR THEIR POOCHYENA TO LEARN HOW TO BITE
HARDER. -_-
Oh great, and now
Hydreigon can't even learn Dark Pulse
naturally to suit its higher offensive stat of
Special Attack - it has to get
the only (barring Night Burst/Night Daze and Bark Out/Snarl)
Dark-type special move as an Egg Move? Yet it can learn
physically-oriented Dark-type moves by level-up? W. T. F.
