Talk:Chain breeding

Can anyone come up with a different example of a move that requires Sketching it to pass it down? The old Heal Bell example doesn't work in Generation III and onward since Skitty, a 25% male species who learns Heal Bell by level, shares both its egg groups with Snubbull and one egg group with Chansey. --Shiningpikablu252 16:29, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Ummm... I think something with Vulpix and Energy Ball - although I believe any Template:Type2 Pokémon that are in the Ground egg group and can learn Energy Ball through TM could pass it down. However, since I uh.. don't have that TM anymore, I - waitasecond. Oh, wait, no. Meganium's not in the Ground egg group. Never mind. >__>; Anyway, I'm PRETTY sure you can only pass down Energy Ball onto Vulpix via Smeargle... Tina^☆♥♫δ281s 17:14, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Girafarig would like to have a word with you. So would Seedot's evolution tree and Leafeon. In fact, a valid chain for Energy Ball on Vulpix is Lotad → Seedot → Vulpix. --Shiningpikablu252 17:31, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Maybe a list of all possible breeding chains? Or would that be ridiculous? TTEchidna 19:26, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

I think it would be really helpful, but not really feasible. Unless some daring breeder wants to take that task on... Maki 06:00, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
