Top 10 Moves Certain Pokemon Can't Learn

These Pokémon just don't make sense when it comes to learning, or not learning, a move that you think they should or shouldn't be able to learn.

The Top Ten

  1. Growlithe can't learn Growl

    This is the one that makes the least amount of sense. It has GROWL in its name, yet it can't learn Growl. Why?!

    Dogs can growl. Growlithe is the Puppy Pokémon. Are they saying puppies can't bark or growl? That makes no sense.

  2. Pidgey can't learn Peck

    Maybe it's because they can already learn Gust and Wing Attack first.

    They're birds. All birds can peck somehow. Togepi gets Peck. How?!

    Pidgeotto has a Pokédex entry where it pecks at foes to protect itself.

  3. Zangoose can't learn Cut

    Its claws look like they could cut a tree down, but the games would say otherwise.

  4. Latias can't learn Flamethrower

    Literally every Dragon-type can learn Flamethrower and Fire Blast, aside from a few pre-evolved Dragon-types. But why not Latias and Latios? Slowpoke can learn these moves!

  5. Yanmega can't learn Fly

    Its Pokédex entries go on about how it can transport human beings, but the games would say otherwise. There are Pikachus that can learn Fly, but a large bug with wings can't, apparently.

  6. Cranidos can't learn Skull Bash

    Must have been an oversight.

  7. Wigglytuff can't learn Baby-Doll Eyes

  8. Regirock can't learn Rock Blast

  9. Snorlax can't learn Slack Off

    Snorlax is always sleeping, which is technically slacking off. If Chimchar can learn this, why not Snorlax?

  10. Gyarados can't learn Fly

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    Gastly can't learn Poison Gas

  12. ?

    Mudkip can't learn Flamethrower

    13. The Contenders

  13. Emolga can't learn Fly

    So Pidove can carry its Trainer, but Emolga can't? What?

    Plus, Farfetch'd, who can't participate in Sky Battles, can learn Fly, but Emolga, who can be in Sky Battles, can't?
