Only stuff I remember from the original series is that the pokedex would occasionally mention pokemon eating each other (and in the anime, Ash once thought that Oak was cooking his new krabby).

(nerrrrd)

I remember that Farfetched were rare because people kept hunting them, in the anime the cast tried to eat a magicarp once because they were starving, and then there was that thing in Gen 2 where Team Rocket was selling Slowpoke tails.

P.S. bulborbish, you might want to adjust the movesets a bit since if I remember correctly most pokemon start off with at least 2 moves (when hatched from an egg or something)

Some mons do start with one; a level 3 Poochyena will only have Tackle.

Hey guys, get in IRC. I'm the only one in, but I see you guys are online. :L

[Sirus]

Best link I could find about the topic.

Welp, color me wrong. It doesn't ever seem to be shown on screen, but it seems there are references.

Re: slowpoke tails, I was under the impression that they grew back.

[GlyphGryph]

I was in the IRC, I left because I was ALONE - not even a drakon or an Errol!

Welps back in now, hey guys. !:P

[Furtuka]

I feel like the Scamps moveset is missing something...

maybe allocate a Signature move from one of the legendaries over to him?

I'd add poison sting as one of Polyceps's starting moves, since it fits thematically. Shadowball should be replaced with Crunch, since it's exactly the same move but dark type (thus giving Jethro STAB from it). Nightmare is okay, I suppose, but I'd replace it with Dream Eater, and perhaps switch Crunch's position with it (Crunch should just be learned earlier anyways). Leaf-blade I'm not too sure of, but Cosmic Power is pretty awesome (I especially like how Schoolbus [Need to think of a better name] learns it before it levels up). Overall I think that it'd pretty good.

Most Early Game ones start with 2, but as you go later most learn more egg moves and parent moves then starting moves. Most of These mons are later game (with exceptions of Sireno and Sirena)

You might at least want to give Bogesh an extra starting move since the Player get's it as a gift in the form of an egg

Awesome. I'd still like an earlier move for Polyceps, but that's just me.

Re: slowpoke tails, I was under the impression that they grew back.

They do- this is said right out by one of the Rocket Grunts in Slowpoke Well. Which made me think, "shit, why is this a bad thing? It's delicious renewable meat from an animal too dumb to feel pain!"

monk jump on IRC! We're having a party!

Bogesh doesn't evolve until lv 34. So why the nightmare?

Noooo, they feel pain. It just takes 30 seconds (or was it a minute? w/e) for the signals to reach the brain. After that though, they feel every agonizing moment.
