(sorry if there's already a thread for this, if there is, please move it there.) This is a place for pokemon's moves that dont make sense. For example; Why does Toxicroak/Croagunk learn Hyper Fang? IT'S A FROG.
 
Diglett and Slash/Aerial Ace/Scratch/Shadow Claw/Night Slash, nuff said
 
In a Pokemon Stadium cart, I found a kangashkan that knew fly and sky attack. WTF?!?!?!?

And another time....is mew learning fly. How do you ride mew like a bird flying you to another town?
 
Snorlax and Self-Destruct. Guts everywhere! Also, Rhydon/Rhyperior with Surf...how can they stay afloat?!
 
I believe Gastly used to be able to learn the elemental punches a few generations ago.
It doesn't really make sense until it evolves.
 
Dusknoir being able to learn Mega Kick by getting a Dusclops from Gen III knowing Mega Kick and then evolving it in Gen IV/V.

Also Wooper being able to learn Ice Punch even though it has no arms or hands.
 
Diglett using Sucker Punch.

There's a reasonable answer for that, actually. Sucker Punch's Japanese name translates to "surprise attack". So the name "Sucker Punch" refers more to a metaphorical sucker punch than a literal punch.
 
On that note, Diglett using Scratch/Fury Swipes/Slash/Shadow Claw/Aerial Ace. I know there's supposed to be feet or something underground, but how can it use them if you never see them?
 
Typhlosion's Rollout.
It's slender, so it probably rolls on its back.

It's a mole, which have claws.

How about a Pidgey? Mew can do anything, period.
Diglet and Hone Claws. Does it have claws on it's feet?

Diglett's pretty fast, maybe it's just really fast and hides its claws under its fur? Obviously it doesn't just make earth magically disappear before it. That would be crazy.
