>>47541124In gen 1, It only knows Comet Punch and Agility when you get it, and it learns nothing but the elemental punches for 18 levels afterward. 23 levels after, it gets Mega Punch, the last damaging move it learns, and then it learns Counter at level 53, which doesn't even work in gen 1. Also, the strongest fighting move it gets by tutor or TM is Submission, an 80 base power 80% accurate recoil move.
In gen 2 its strongest fighting move by level up, tutor or TM is Mach Punch and the 50% accurate DynamicPunch. Don't like it? Breed for Hitmonlee's kick moves loser.
Elemental Punches are absolutely worthless on it until gen 4, but at least it finally learns Sky Uppercut and TM Brick Break in gen 3. Not to mention the first physical coverage move besides fucking Mud Slap, learning TM Earthquake and getting a tutor for Rock Slide.
It perfectly encapsulates the degree of problems within early gen movesets.
