I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but a lot of Pokémon can learn moves that they really shouldn't be able to learn. In this thread, you can post about these strange moves, just so others can learn how absurd they are.
- Zubat can learn Mean Look. How exactly does it look at its opponent without eyes?
- Heatmor can learn Wrap. It's an anteater, what does it use to wrap? I know anteaters have long tongues, but Heatmor's tongue is made of fire, so that's out of the question.
- I understand that they evolve from a clam, but it still makes no sense that Huntail and Gorebyss can learn Shell Smash. They don't have shells, so do they somehow smash their skin off?
- Slowpoke can learn Flamethrower. This isn't weird because it's a water type (Gyarados can learn it too), but because it's a Slowpoke.
- Although event-exclusive, it is possible to have a Genesect with Shift Gear. Team Plasma did upgrade Genesect with machinery (most notably adding a cannon), but I don't see any gears. Are the gears inside it?
- Azelf can learn Explosion. Most Pokémon that can learn it are made of inorganic material, like rock, metal, or clay, but can you imagine an Azelf exploding? Wouldn't guts fly everywhere? Gross!!!
