===Rule 1===
===Level-up moves===
If both parents know one or more moves that their offspring could learn by [[level]]ing up, the offspring will have that move. For example, {{p|Gengar}} and {{p|Mismagius}} both know {{m|Mean Look}}, so their child, {{p|Misdreavus}}, who learns the move at level 19 will know it when it hatches.

===Rule 2===
===TM and HM moves===
If the male Pokémon knows a [[TM]] or [[HM]] move that the offspring can learn, the offspring will have that move. In this example, the father, {{p|Gliscor}}, learns {{m|X-Scissor}} naturally, and his child, {{p|Joltik}}, can learn the same move through [[TM81]], so it will learn it automatically upon hatching. Prior to [[Generation V]], this was the only was to "reuse" one-of-kind TMs, like the ones obtained from [[Gym Leader]]s.

===Egg moves===
If the male Pokémon knows a move that the offspring can learn only by breeding. For example, if a male {{p|Dragonite}} knowing {{m|Outrage}} is bred with a female {{p|Charizard}}, the resulting {{p|Charmander}} will know Outrage.

===Rule 4===
===Default moves===
All offspring Pokémon, in the absence of passed-down moves, will know at least one move when hatched, labeled in their level up move list as either "Start" or "--" in lieu of a level number. If these moves, together with the other Egg moves obtained in the above ways, number more than four, then the moves on top of their level up move list (with "Start" or "--") will be the ones that do not show up.
