== Generation II egg moves vs level-up moves ==
I fully understand the mechanics behind a set of moves a baby Pokémon gains upon hatching, but I've come across a situation where a Pokémon can learn a move both by breeding and by leveling up.  For example, according to Pokémon Stadium 2 data, a Totodile can learn Hydro Pump as an egg move even though it can learn it by leveling up.  That means a baby Totodile can learn it even if its father knows Hydro Pump and its mother doesn't.  Otherwise, both parents would have been required to know Hydro Pump for that to occur were it by leveling up.  Same can be applied for Cyndaquil's Quick Attack.  Can such moves be listed under a Pokémon's breeding list, or should they still be omitted?  Note that the game uses a sequencing mechanism (writing level-up moves first and egg moves last), which means that if it treats Hydro Pump as a breeding move, there's a greater chance that a baby Totodile can learn it (level-up moves can get overwritten easily due to 4-moves limit).  Any clarification is greatly appreciated.  Thanks!
