Prior to Generation VI, if the male Pokémon knows a [[TM]] or [[HM]] move that the offspring can learn, the offspring will inherit that move. This applies whether or not the female Pokémon knows the move (or if {{p|Ditto}} was used in lieu of a female), and regardless of how the father originally learned the move. | Prior to Generation VI, if the male Pokémon knows a [[TM]] or [[HM]] move that the offspring can learn, the offspring will inherit that move.

In this example, the father, {{p|Gliscor}}, learns {{m|X-Scissor}} by level up, and his child, {{p|Joltik}}, can learn the same move through [[TM81]], so it will know this move upon hatching. | In this example, the father, {{p|Gliscor}}, learns {{m|X-Scissor}} by level up, and his child, {{p|Joltik}}, can learn the same move through [[TM81]], so it will know this move upon hatching. | ||

As of [[Generation VI]], the offspring no longer inherits TM or HM moves automatically, but may still be able to inherit the move by another means: For example, {{p|Archen}} cannot inherit {{m|Roost}} as an egg move (despite being compatible with [[TM19]]), but {{p|Fletchling}} can (because Fletchling learns it via level-up), and {{p|Vullaby}} can as well (because it is a specific Egg move for Vullaby). | |||
