Moves. There are a lot of different moves, and the majority of Pokémon can learn a wide array of moves. But some make you wonder: why can't they learn that move? Here's the moves that (in my opinion) are missing from certain Pokémon's movepools. I will sort them by move and also give reasons for my choices.
On this page, I will provide detailed information on all the Pokémon I caught and used in my Pokémon Let's Plays on YouTube. The episodes in the moveboxes correspond to the episode numbers of the Let's Play, not the Pokémon anime episodes the numbers link to.


==List of moves==
Note to self: up next is Episode 18.
The moves will be sorted in alphabetical order.


===Acid Spray===
===Let's Play Pokémon Ruby===
Pokémon that should know {{m|Acid Spray}} in my opinion:

| align=center | [[Image:596.png‎]]<br>{{p|Galvantula}}
|}
'''Bellsprout, Weepinbell, Victreebel, Scrafty''': Pokédex entries mention that these Pokémon are capable of spitting acid.


'''Spinarak, Ariados, Joltik, Galvantula''': Spiders tend to use all kinds of acids to melt their prey's insides with.

|epname=Start of a New Journey!
|desc={{p|Mudkip}} was first used by Jos to ward off a wild {{p|Poochyena}} that attacked [[Professor Birch]]. Out of gratitude, Professor Birch allowed Jos to keep Mudkip as his [[starter Pokémon]]. It was used to defeat [[May]]'s {{p|Treecko}} in Jos's first trainer battle shortly afterwards.


'''Carnivine''': Flytraps like Carnivine also generally use acids to help digest their prey.
On [[Route 102]], Mudkip battled against a wild {{p|Wurmple}} so that Jos could catch it. It was also used to battle against a wild {{p|Taillow}} on [[Route 104]], which Jos also ended up catching.


===Agility===
Mudkip proved to be extremely useful when Jos took on the [[Rustboro City]] [[Rustboro Gym|Gym]], easily defeating all the trainers' {{p|Geodude}}s with its {{m|Water Gun}}. It was used in the battle against [[Roxanne]] where it easily defeated her {{p|Geodude}}. It was then switched out for {{p|Dustox}}. After {{p|Dustox}} and {{p|Taillow}} were defeated by Roxanne's {{p|Nosepass}}, Mudkip was sent out to battle it and ended up defeating it.
Pokémon that should know {{m|Agility}} in my opinion:
{|border="1" style="border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;" width=300px cellspacing="0"

| align=center | [[Image:624.png‎]]<br>{{p|Pawniard}}
| align=center | [[Image:625.png‎]]<br>{{p|Bisharp}}
|}
'''Sandile, Krokorok, Krookodile''': Crocodiles are capable of moving extremely fast for short periods of time, and {{p|Feraligatr}} can learn Agility, so...


'''Pawniard, Bisharp''': After seeing Pawniard in action in [[BW041]], it definately seems capable of rapid movement to me.
Mudkip was used in the [[Dewford Town|Dewford]] [[Dewford Gym|Gym]], where it battled a [[Battle Girl]]'s {{p|Meditite}} before being recalled. It was also used in the battle against [[Brawly]], where it was sent out to battle his {{p|Makuhita}}. Mudkip lowered its accuracy with several {{m|Mud-Slap}}s but was defeated by a {{m|Bulk Up}}-boosted {{m|Arm Thrust}}.


===Air Slash===
Mudkip evolved into {{p|Marshtomp}} and learned how to use {{m|Mud Shot}} after defeating a [[Sailor]]'s {{p|Machop}} on [[Slateport City|Slateport Beach]]. It was then used to fight off several [[Team Magma]] Grunts at the [[Oceanic Museum|Slateport Museum]] to protect [[Captain Stern]].
Pokémon that should know {{m|Air Slash}} in my opinion:
{|border="1" style="border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;" width=300px cellspacing="0"
| align=center | [[Image:275.png‎]]<br>{{p|Shiftry}}

| align=center | [[Image:612.png‎]]<br>{{p|Haxorus}}
| align=center | [[Image:624.png‎]]<br>{{p|Pawniard}}
| align=center | [[Image:625.png‎]]<br>{{p|Bisharp}}
|}
'''Shiftry, Drifblim''': Both are related to winds and have sharp-looking appendages with which blades of air can be formed.


'''Gabite, Garchomp''': Garchomp's Pokédex entry states that it can fell trees with blades of air when it runs. Gabite's physical shape resembles Garchomp, so it would be able to do the same.
Marshtomp was used to battle [[May]]'s {{p|Numel}} on [[Route 110]] and easily defeated it. It also defeated [[Wally]]'s {{p|Ralts}} in [[Mauville City]].


'''Axew, Fraxure, Haxorus''' Their tusks look capable enough to create blades of air with. If Oshawott and Sewaddle can do it...
Marshtomp was used to great effect in the [[Mauville City|Mauville]] [[Mauville Gym|Gym]], easily defeating the gym trainers' {{p|Voltorb}}s, {{p|Magnemite}}s and {{p|Electrike}}s. It was also used against [[Wattson]]'s {{p|Magneton}} and defeated it with a single {{m|Mud Shot}}.


'''Gallade, Pawniard, Bisharp''': They can create blades of air with their arm blades.
Marshtomp was used in Jos's battles with the [[Winstrate family]]. It defeated Vivi's {{p|Numel}}.


===Aqua Jet===

Pokémon that should know {{m|Aqua Jet}} in my opinion:

|}
'''Horsea, Seadra, Kingdra''': These Pokémon are very fast, and I think Aqua Jet suits them.


'''Goldeen, Seaking''': These fish Pokémon can swim very fast, so they would be able to lunge at high speeds.
{{TrainerPoké

|gender=male
|stage1=Wurmple

|type2=Poison
|img=May Wurmple.png
|img2=James Dustox.png
|epnum=EP001
|epname=Start of a New Journey!
|desc={{p|Wurmple}} was caught on [[Route 102]] shortly after Jos started on his journey. It put up a good fight against his {{p|Mudkip}}, but was eventually caught and added to his team.


'''Huntail, Gorebyss''': These fish Pokémon aren't very fast swimmers, but they can lunge very fast to catch prey.
Wurmple initially struggled in battles and required the assistance of Mudkip a lot, but it eventually evolved into {{p|Cascoon}}  after defeating a [[Youngster]]'s {{p|Seedot}} just outside [[Petalburg City]], learning {{m|Harden}} in the process.


===Aura Sphere===
Cascoon was used to battle a [[Team Magma]] Grunt's {{p|Poochyena}} in [[Petalburg Woods]] to rescue a [[Devon Corporation]] employee who was in the forest looking for {{p|Shroomish}}. Shortly afterwards, it evolved into {{p|Dustox}} after defeating a [[Lass]]'s {{p|Lotad}} and {{p|Shroomish}}, learning {{m|Confusion}} in the process.
Pokémon that should know {{m|Aura Sphere}} in my opinion:
{|border="1" style="border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;" width=300px cellspacing="0"

| align=center | [[Image:575.png‎]]<br>{{p|Gothorita}}
| align=center | [[Image:576.png‎]]<br>{{p|Gothitelle}}
|}
'''Clefairy, Clefable, Chansey, Blissey''': They all have this mystical and pure aura around them, which makes them candidates for Aura Sphere, IMO.


'''Ralts, Kirlia, Gardevoir, Gallade, Gothita, Gothorita, Gothitelle''': These Pokémon read emotions of other people, which means they're proficient with aura.
Dustox was used in the [[Rustboro Gym]] battle against [[Roxanne]], where it was sent out to battle her {{p|Nosepass}}. It managed to [[Poison|poison]] it with {{m|Poison Sting}} and deal some damage to it with {{m|Confusion}} before being defeated by {{p|Nosepass}}'s {{m|Rock Tomb}}.


'''Meditite, Medicham, Darmanitan''': Through hardened meditation, their aura becomes so strong they can harness it in battle.
Dustox had a rematch with the [[Team Magma]] Grunt's {{p|Poochyena}} in [[Rusturf Tunnel]], and it defeated the Poochyena again, saving [[Mr. Briney]]'s precious {{p|Wingull}}.


'''Celebi, Sigilyph''': This elusive move will add to their mystery factor.
Dustox was used in the [[Dewford Town|Dewford]] [[Dewford Gym|Gym]], where its {{m|Confusion}} and {{m|Gust}} proved very useful. It was sent out against [[Brawly]]'s {{p|Machop}} after it defeated Jos's {{p|Makuhita}} and defeated it. It was sent out again to battle Brawly's Makuhita, which had already defeated both Mudkip and Taillow, and defeated it.


===Autotomize===
Dustox was sent out to battle [[May]]'s {{p|Wailmer}} on [[Route 110]]. It managed to poison it before switching out to {{p|Makuhita}}. It was sent out again to battle May's {{p|Grovyle}} after it defeated {{p|Taillow}} and defeated it.
Pokémon that should know {{m|Autotomize}} in my opinion:
{|border="1" style="border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;" width=300px cellspacing="0"
| align=center | [[Image:081.png‎]]<br>{{p|Magnemite}}
| align=center | [[Image:082.png‎]]<br>{{p|Magneton}}

| align=center | [[Image:376.png‎]]<br>{{p|Metagross}}
| align=center | [[Image:462.png‎]]<br>{{p|Magnezone}}
|}
'''Magnemite, Magneton, Beldum, Metang, Metagross, Magnezone''': Due to being made up of multiple Pokémon, these Pokémon could easily shed parts of their body to make themselves lighter and faster.


===Belly Drum===
Dustox was sent out to battle [[Wattson]]'s {{p|Voltorb}} in the [[Mauville Gym]]. Voltorb immediately used {{m|Selfdestruct}}, but Dustox managed to hang on.
Pokémon that should know {{m|Belly Drum}} in my opinion:
{|border="1" style="border: 1px solid #000; border-collapse: collapse;" width=300px cellspacing="0"
| align=center | [[Image:115.png‎]]<br>{{p|Kangaskhan}}

| align=center | [[Image:614.png‎]]<br>{{p|Beartic}}
| align=center | [[Image:621.png‎]]<br>{{p|Druddigon}}
|}
'''Kangaskhan, Ludicolo, Grumpig, Bibarel, Pignite, Emboar''': These Pokémon all have relatively fat bodies and large bellies that they could drum on.


'''Snubbull, Granbull, Slakoth, Vigoroth, Slaking, Cubchoo, Beartic''': These Pokémon are all prone to anger and physically oriented, so they could use the power boost.
Dustox was used in Jos's battles with the [[Winstrate family]]. It defeated Victor's {{p|Taillow}}, Victoria's {{p|Roselia}}, Vivi's {{p|Marill}} and {{p|Shroomish}}, and Vicky's {{p|Meditite}}.


'''Snover, Abomasnow''': They're kinda fat, and Belly Drum + Ice Shard could give them a useful niche in the metagame.

'''Oshawott, Dewott, Samurott''': Aren't otters known for drumming on their bellies using the food they find?

|img=Ash Taillow.png

|epnum=EP003
|epname=Where is Taillow? Search in Petalburg Forest!
|desc={{p|Taillow}} was caught on [[Route 104]] after Jos had been searching for one for quite some time. It battled against Jos's {{p|Mudkip}} and was caught. Shortly after its capture, Taillow was used to battle a [[Bug Catcher]]'s team of six {{p|Wurmple}}s and defeated them all, learning {{m|Quick Attack}} in the process.


'''Druddigon''': Kinda fat, and it'd give Druddigon something that other dragons like Salamence, Hydreigon and Haxorus don't have.
Taillow was used in the [[Rustboro Gym]] battle against [[Roxanne]], where it was sent out to battle her {{p|Nosepass}} after it defeated {{p|Dustox}}. It managed to lower {{p|Nosepass}}'s attack power with {{m|Growl}} before being defeated.


===Blaze Kick===
Taillow was used to battle a wild {{p|Makuhita}} in [[Granite Cave]] which Jos ended up capturing. Taillow was also taught how to use {{m|Steel Wing}} with the [[TM]] that Jos received from [[Steven]].
Pokémon that should know {{m|Blaze Kick}} in my opinion:

| align=center | [[Image:513.png‎]]<br>{{p|Pansear}}
| align=center | [[Image:514.png‎]]<br>{{p|Simisear}}
|}
'''Ponyta, Rapidash''': Horses are known for their kicking, they can learn Double Kick, and they're on fire.


'''Magmar, Typhlosion, Magby, Magmortar, Pignite, Emboar, Pansear, Simisear''': They are all Fire-types, and they all have well-developed legs to kick with.
Taillow was used in the [[Dewford Town|Dewford]] [[Dewford Gym|Gym]], where it learned {{m|Wing Attack}}. It was sent out to battle [[Brawly]]'s {{p|Makuhita}} after it defeated Mudkip and severely damaged it, but Taillow was unable to defeat it and was knocked out.


'''Hitmontop''': Hitmontop could spin so fast that it sets its foot on fire because of the friction.
Taillow was sent out to battle [[May]]'s {{p|Grovyle}} on [[Route 110]] and severely damaged it before being defeated. Taillow learned how to use {{m|Double Team}} after defeating an [[Aroma Lady]]'s {{p|Shroomish}} and {{p|Roselia}} despite being paralyzed.


'''Meditite, Medicham''': They could use their psychic powers to control the fire with or something.
Taillow was entered in a Cool [[Pokémon Contest]] in [[Verdanturf Town]] and barely managed to win it, earning itself a Ribbon.


===Brave Bird===
Taillow was used in the [[Mauville City|Mauville]] [[Mauville Gym|Gym]] to defeat a {{p|Meditite}}.
Pokémon that should know {{m|Brave Bird}} in my opinion:

|}
'''Charizard, Togekiss''': The Zubat line proves you don't have to be a bird to know Brave Bird.


'''Spearow, Fearow, Noctowl, Pidove, Tranquill, Unfezant''': These guys desperately need better Flying STAB.
Taillow evolved into {{p|Swellow}} on [[Route 112]] after defeating a [[Camper]]'s {{p|Zigzagoon}}.


'''Aerodactyl''': It's technically not a bird, but it would go great with its Rock Head ability.

|epname=Granite Cave! Makuhita and Steven!
|desc={{p|Makuhita}} was caught in [[Granite Cave]] after battling Jos's {{p|Taillow}}. Shortly after capture, Jos made use of the [[TM]] that [[Roxanne]] gave him to teach Makuhita how to use {{m|Rock Tomb}}.
 
Makuhita's trainer battle debut came in the [[Dewford Town|Dewford]] [[Dewford Gym|Gym]], where it was sent out against [[Brawly]]'s {{p|Machop}}. However, it was defeated by a single {{m|Karate Chop}}. After the gym battle, Jos used the [[TM]] that Brawly gave him to teach Makuhita how to use {{m|Bulk Up}}.
 
Makuhita learned how to use {{m|Vital Throw}} after defeating a [[Tuber]]'s {{p|Azurill}} on the beach of [[Slateport City]]. It was then used to battle a [[Team Magma]] Grunt's {{p|Numel}} and {{p|Zubat}} in the [[Oceanic Museum|Slateport Museum]] to protect [[Captain Stern]].
 
Makuhita was sent out to battle [[May]]'s {{p|Wailmer}} after {{p|Dustox}} had already poisoned it and easily defeated it.
 
Makuhita was used in the [[Mauville City|Mauville]] [[Mauville Gym|Gym]] to defeat a {{p|Zigzagoon}}. It was also used in the battle against [[Wattson]], where it was sent out to battle his {{p|Magnemite}}. It initially struggled with confusion, but Makuhita ended up defeating Magnemite.
 
Makuhita was used in Jos's battles with the [[Winstrate family]]. It defeated Victor's {{p|Zigzagoon}}.
 
Makuhita evolved into {{p|Hariyama}} on [[Route 112]] after defeating a [[Hiker]]'s {{p|Numel}}. Shortly after, Jos used a [[TM]] to teach it how to use {{m|Secret Power}}.
