Though to get a Tyranitar with Outrage requires only one intermediate Pokémon, making it a short chain, not all breeding chains are like this. In fact, some are several steps long, and at each stage, require the hatched egg to be a male Pokémon as to pass on the move to his own children.
It can also be used to pass on entire movesets, even if individual moves are able to be passed down without an intermediary. For example, taking the child Larvitar with Outrage and leveling it up so that it will learn {{m|Thrash}}, it can pass down '''''both''''' moves to a child {{p|Gible}}, which cannot learn either of them normally.

Many chains, however, are not as short as this Outrage chain, with a few having several steps that are required to be followed. What is required of all chains, however, is that the child is a male Pokémon so that he can continue to pass on the move. Several chains even require that a male {{p|Smeargle}} {{m|Sketch}} a move specific to a Pokémon of an all-female species, like {{p|Miltank}}, in order to pass it down. This, of course, is the only way in which a {{p|Snubbull}}, {{p|Chansey}}, or {{p|Happiny}} with {{m|Heal Bell}} can be obtained legally.
