Heracross with ThunderPunch

[LEGOanimal22]

I was curious when my bred Heracross with ThunderPunch appeared as illegal. ThunderPunch is programmed as one of Heracross' egg moves (see spoiler)

Has anyone else noticed this?

That has got to be hacked. Heracross never had access to Thunderpunch in ANY generation. If it did, you'd see it run it more often to combat Gyarados (though it runs Stone Edge for this purpose). What game is this and is that data for the Heracross in question or the actual data for the Pokemon itself?

This is the actual egg moves list for Heracross ripped straight from a Japanese White2 ROM.

That has got to be hacked.

So is it hacked or is it bred? If you actually bred it, what did you breed it with to get Thunder Punch?

The B2W2 National Dex guide does not list Thunder Punch as one of its moves. Nor does any other website. Are you sure you aren't mixing up the data that you're looking at?

Well, that file had all of Heracross' moves + ThunderPunch. Also, it was labeled "214"

I bred it with my Ledian that learned ThunderPunch through Move Tutor.

This might have been a programming error...

Sorry to bring up dead topics, but I ripped the same file out of a Black 2 game and got the same thing:

The two game both have ThunderPunch as one of Heracross' egg moves.

That's the amount of moves contained in the file.

Well... that's embarrassing...
