Egg Moves are | Aside from Egg Moves, there are several other ways of inheriting moves from parents. Prior to Generation VI, a bred Pokémon will inherit any [[TM]]/[[HM]] moves which its father knows, if it is compatible with that TM/HM. In Pokémon Crystal, a bred Pokémon will inherit any compatible [[Move Tutor]] moves which its father knows. Additionally, if both parents know a move that the bred Pokémon can learn via level-up, it will inherit that move. From {{game|Emerald}} onward, a bred {{p|Pichu}} will know {{m|Volt Tackle}} if either of its parents are holding a [[Light Ball]]. However, inheriting moves in these ways is distinct from inheriting moves as Egg Moves. | ||
