Is it notable that no Gen V pokemon learn it, despite it being introduced in the fifth generation?--RegiRuler 15:32, 27 February 2011 (UTC)

Trivia

So, this move is learned only by 18 Pokémon and it's kind of obvious that it's intended to be learned mainly by certain kind of non-Dark-type Pokémon. 12 (two thirds) of the Pokémon that learn the move have inarguably a Japanese name that contains a royal title; and if we exclude Mew (who can every TM move), the percentage becomes even higher. In my opinion it's something that can't be just ignored. Of course we can leave the "other higher status" part out, because for example Aggron (Bossgodora) and Serperior (Jalorda) cannot learn Quash.--Den Zen 10:10, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

I completely agree with Den Zen here. It's definitely worth noting for the reasons stated. BNKTalk 10:26, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
To add, the move itself involves the user administering priority over its opponent. Mew, as Denn Zen stated, can learn every TM, and Murkrow is the evolutionary relative of Honchkrow. Plus, its Pokedex states that it is "feared and loathed by many". BNKTalk 10:34, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
Personally, I don't find it all that notable. It's almost like sprite trivia and you can simply see for yourself just by looking at the table. 27 out of the 39 Pokémon that learn Peck are based on birds but we're not going to point that out either. Jo the Marten ಠ_ಠ 10:41, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
