Pic related, I want to make a infiltrator crobat. Also any egg moves to consider? Defog seems like the only useful one

Depends on how you want to use him. If you give him infiltrator, obviously you want him attacking through screens or some shit.

Brave bird is insane damage. Slightly more than acrobatics, especially considering there are no flying gems.

For hordes, just get a pokemon with Worry Seed to identify the Infiltrator zubat, it takes a while but its most effective. Also get Brave Bird for decent STAB

I need to do this as well OP.

I was thinking a Curse/Acrobatics/Roost/Super Fang set with White Herb. Thoughts?

Are Zubat/Golbat available in the Safari?

Set up substitute and see which Zubat goes through it.

use skill swap reuniclus and swap with every bat in the horde

also turn off fucking battle animations you don't need to see that stupid shit, it wastes time when you're hunting for abilities
turn it back on when you're battling other people

Trace would only work for one and you wouldn't even know which one its traced if you found the right one.

I used skill swap, took me 27 Zubat hordes to find one. That's just the Zubat ones, not counting the other mon hordes. RNG was not in my favor that day. I bred Brave Bird and Steel Wing onto mine through a Talonflame.

Is Steel Wing actually a good option?

Best Egg Moves for Zubat
Brave Bird (only good Flying STAB)
Defog (Best Hazard remover)
Hypnosis (Not needed, buy good to know for future builds at the move relearner)
Zen Headbutt/Steel Wing (Zen Headbutt can give a decent hit to Dark/Poison types, while Steel Wing would allow you to hit Ice types better....but its also not completely needed....most Crobats run Roost and a combination of Toxic, Taunt, BB, Defog, Cross Poison, and U-turn...depending on their build)

my favorite mon for the purpuse of finding HA in hordes is Audino. Entertainment + Simple Beam last for 5 hordes, plus it is bulky. just go from left to right to check their abilities
