Can Pokemon Learn Egg Moves from TMs?

The answer to the question Can Pokemon learn egg moves from TMs? is no, Pokémon cannot directly learn egg moves from TMs (Technical Machines), as egg moves are a specific type of move that can only be passed down from a parent Pokémon to its offspring through breeding. Egg moves are unique in that they can be learned by a Pokémon only if its father knows the move at the time of breeding, making them distinct from TM moves which can be taught to compatible Pokémon using a TM.

Understanding Egg Moves and TMs

Definition and Purpose

Egg moves and TMs are two different methods by which Pokémon can learn new moves.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Can Pokémon learn TM moves through breeding? Aside from Egg Moves, there are several other ways of inheriting moves from parents, including TM/HM moves which a bred Pokémon will inherit from its father if it is compatible, prior to Generation VI.

  2. How do you teach a Pokémon a move with a TM? To teach a Pokémon a move with a TM, you need to go into the bag, select the TMs section, choose the TM, and then select Use; if there are any compatible Pokémon in your party, you can then select that Pokémon to learn the move.

  3. Is there a TM every Pokémon can learn? Yes, all Pokémon who are normally compatible with TMs can learn certain moves like Toxic, Hidden Power, Frustration, Return, Double Team, Facade, Round, Swagger, Sleep Talk, Substitute, and Confide.

  4. Can you learn 2 egg moves at once? To learn more than one egg move, since they are only passed on by the father, only a father Pokémon in the appropriate Egg Group that can legitimately have all of the moves in one moveset can be used.

  5. How do Pokémon learn egg moves in daycare? As long as you don’t remove the parent, the babies will continue to get the egg moves so long as the parents had them when they were first placed in the daycare.

  6. Can you breed 2 dittos? Unfortunately, Ditto cannot breed with other Ditto as the members of the Ditto Egg Group cannot breed with each other.

  7. Can Pokémon learn egg moves with Ditto? You should be fine to breed with Ditto, as egg moves can be passed down from either a male or a female now, and breeding with Ditto doesn’t make a difference.

  8. Does Mirror Herb work for egg moves? The Mirror Herb in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet is a new held item that proves to be pretty useful for learning Egg Moves without the hassle of Pokémon breeding.

  9. What are the best egg moves? Some of the best egg moves include Muddy Water (Kingdra), High Jump Kick (Cinderace), Self-Destruct (Snorlax), Double-Edge (Staraptor), Sucker Punch (Bisharp), Icicle Crash (Weavile), Dragon Dance (Tyranitar), and Volt Tackle (Pikachu).

  10. Can you teach Pokémon egg moves? Players can teach Pokémon egg moves by breeding a male Pokémon of one species with a female of a different species, with the male Pokémon knowing a valid egg move at the time of breeding.

  11. Can you get egg moves without breeding in Scarlet? Breeding isn’t the only way to pass on Egg Moves anymore, thanks to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s Mirror Herb, which dramatically speeds up learning Egg Moves.

  12. Why is my Pokémon not learning egg moves? You should put the egg moves at the bottom of the father’s move list, as when a Pokémon learns a new move by leveling up at the day care, the first move is deleted, and the remaining three are bumped up one slot.

  13. How to Learn Egg Moves FAST AND EASY in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Using the Mirror Herb is one of the fastest and easiest ways to learn Egg Moves in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

  14. What’s the difference between fast TM and charged TM? Fast TMs can teach your Pokémon random new fast moves, while Charged TMs can teach your Pokémon a random new charged move, with the Elite versions allowing you to pick which move the Pokémon learns.

  15. Are Pokémon egg moves random? If the parent knows any egg moves, TMs, Move tutor moves, or a move that the Pokémon can learn that both parents have, then those will be given to the offspring, along with 3 random IVs from either parent and the Pokeball the mother has, making the process somewhat random.
