I'm not sure why the page says that genderless Pokémon can't pass down any moves, because they definitely can. They can pass down TM moves for sure; the page lists Porygon as an example for not being able to inherit any of the TM moves that its parent can, but I've definitely bred many a Porygon in my time and they've all inherited TMs. Did that stop being a thing past Gen IV or something? I just thought I would bring this up on the talk page because it's kind of a big change; either I'm just not familiar enough with post-IV mechanics or this is a really big error?

:Before G6, it would inherit the TMs (or TM and Move Tutors in G2), as well as one of the starting moves. The current shape is what would happen in G6. Also, Porygon's moveset changed a bit (most notably Sharpen earlier wasn't a starting move, and apparently the starting moves' order changed).

== Power-Up Punch Snorlax ==
Snorlax got Power-Up Punch as an egg move in BDSP. But, unless I've missed something, there's no way to get a compatible parent that knows it yet (Munchlax doesn't have it as an egg move so isn't found with it in the grand underground). However it was a TM in gen 6 so a suitable parent will be able available when Home is updated (if it allows for previous gen transfers). Before Home is updated should Power-Up Punch Snorlax be added to the "Unobtainable Egg Moves" section?
