35 Pokémon that Learn Moves They Shouldn't

35 Pokemon that Learn Moves They Shouldn't! Pokemon logic can be silly at times...especially when it comes to Pokemon movesets. There are moves Pokemon should learn but don't, but there's also a lot of moves Pokemon learn that they should not learn. Here are 35 of them!
I make Pokemon videos, such as Top 10 or Top 5 Pokemon videos, Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon content, Pokemon Sun and Moon content, Pokemon anime Ash Ketchum videos, Pokemon Let's Plays of Pokemon games, and lots more! If you're hyped for Pokemon Sun and Moon, been a lifetime Pokemon fan, or even if you just picked up Pokemon Go, you should subscribe to me!

Beheeyem can learn steel wing because in some game it was the TM number 51, being a reference to the area 51, and Beheeyem is an alien.

[@snobsy2877]

Smort

[@bendysbrother7447]

The reason is that in Gen 5 the TM 51 was the move ally switch, a move that made sense fo Beheeyem to learn. In generation six they changed TM 51 to steel wing. But they didn't change Beheeyem's compatibility with TM 51. As Pokemon being able to learn TM's is based off the number of the TM, not the move it teaches. Therefore he can learn steel wing.

[@gengarzilla1685]

It's an error, not a big brain Area 51 reference. Beheeyem cannot learn Icicle Spear from Sword and Shield's TM51.

[@luisvelez1952]

It probably uses its Psychic energy to make wings for the attack or uses its arms to flap it like wings.

[@cameronsmiljan9374]

Phanpy learning water gun actually makes sense when you think about it. It's an elephant. Elephants gather water in their trunks and wash themselves with it, so it's easy to see how Phanpy would use that water to attack instead.

[@idontevenknowwhatmynamesho8779]

Pokemon moves have magic rather than just anatomy so phanpy creates the water

[@cameronsmiljan9374]

That's true, but a lot of reasons that Pokemon can learn certain moves is based on anatomy. Hence most small Pokemon that have tails can learn Tail Whip, or how the Bulbasaur line can learn Vine Whip due to the 1st and 2nd forms having tangible vines growing from the plant on their backs.

[@rinco1532]

I does make sense to phanpy learn water gun because well... Have you ever seen an elephant having a bath?

[@Madmushroom64]

[@NICOCLASH]

And for the same reason it's weird that Gastly can learn all elemental punches, it has no attack to do so (I can get it that in gen 1, 2 and 3 all these moves are considered special, and so Haunter and Gengar abused it), but now it's weird and useless

[@Dark_Interloper]

3:19 the reason for this is actually a little bit strange. In gen 6, Beheeyem can learn tm51, which is steel wing. But in gen 5, tm51 was ally switch. A move that Beheeyem could learn, which makes sense. But I assume that during the process of, I guess, transferring the tm numbers from gen 5 to 6, they didn't change Beheeyem's TM number compatibility for gen 6 from 5 (if that makes sense). So it was able to learn TM51 in gen 6, like in gen 5. But, tm51 was changed to steel wing which is why is can learn that. I can't remember where I found this out, but it's interesting

I vaguely remember the whole surfing rhydon being in the show at least twice with the first being a wild surfing rhydon

[@J5ODK]

The Rhydon learning surf part is a special case connected to an episode in the pokemon anime. The Doduo and Dodrio learning fly is also explained in the anime. It can learn "fly" but it just jumps really high which makes it seem like its flying eventho its not.

[@LuDogg805]

The reason Emboar learns scald is because some hogs/boars/swins/pigs are known to spit at things... it's a fiery pig, so it's spit is hot. (Scald). Donphan learns water gun because elephants snort water and give themselves baths. (Water gun) Ferramosa learns roost because certain South American roaches can fly even though they usually don't. (Roost)

[@snowykaze]

MexicanRacoon805 actually, for that last one, In pretty sure I recall reading that Pheremosa absolutely hates all things because they aren't "pretty" enough, so it never touches them. My theory is that it floats nearly invisibly over the ground because it thinks earth is too "ugly". Using roost...MAKES IT TOUCH THE GROUND.

With the number of questions he asks across his videos. It's quite clear he doesn't watch the anime

[@SerDerpish]

Similarly to Rhydon with Surf: hiw can Gyarados learn Thunder and how can Dragonite learn Ice Beam? Also, by the logic of this episode, every pokemon with a mouth should be able to learn Water Gun, since it is essentially spitting out a mouthful of water at your opponent

[@xoelpr2349]

Beheeyem can learn steel wing because it's the TM 51, and Beheeyem is an alien. That's the only sense I can make.

[@yeets_galore3133]

[@99wins31]

Or they just forgot about it

[@zememerr2329]

It’s actually because of some error going into Gen 6 from 5. In Gen 5, they can learn TM 51, Ally Switch, which makes sense for them to have. In Gen 6, the TM was changed to Steel Wing, yet Gamefreak forgot to change compatibility so they can just learn Steel Wing now

Hypno learning rest despite having insomnia makes sense. From a lore perspective: It knows how to do it, but it just fails when it tries like most insomniacs. From a game design perspective: It makes more sense to just leave it in than to design different movesets for pokemon in the same species that just have different abilities. It would be weird if every hypno had Insomnia, but since it's only a portion of them it's understandable.

[@modelomegatyler]

8:45 "pherimosa does not fly and does not levitate" doesn't it make itself float so it doesn't have to touch our "filthy world"?

[@SuperGamerNinja1]

Beheeyem learns Steel Wing because it's TM51. And what do aliens fly in? Flying metal saucers. Phanpy could learn Water Gun because it's an Elephant. But a Ground type elephant learning Ice Shard makes even less sense. And one of the few Pokemon that can't learn Toxic is Magearna. Isn't that nice? The guy who made Magearna, which was a gift for a princess, made sure his creation couldn't make highly toxic substances for the princess's safety.
