:No, that means that the ''only'' way for Whimsicott to have those moves in BW is via Cottonee. The "prior evolution" section is the 'last resort' of knowable moves, meaning if an evolution can learn a move via TM or tutor, it won't be there. In the case of those three moves, Whimsicott can learn them via tutor in B2W2. Were the moveset different between games, Cottonee's level-up table would have two columns (BW and B2W2) to reflect the differences.

::Thank you for clarifying, I didn't think of that. I thought the movesets were different, so was wondering why the second column is missing, thanks.--[[User:Elveonora|Elveonora]] ([[User talk:Elveonora|talk]]) 17:23, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

== Moves learned by multiple methods ==
Exactly what happens if a pokemon learns a move via tutor or TM or otherwise already knows a move, then levels up to a level where it learns it by level up? I would imagine it would fail to learn the move, but does any message show, or does it possibly even succeed at learning the move? I can see in Smeargle's case in particular that you might want to have the same move multiple times (two Sketches when you haven't decided what to make the first one yet)
