As far as 1.1.6 goes, these are the tested Breeding Move Mechanics for Pokémon Insurgence:
The breeding mechanics of Pokémon Insurgence do not follow the rules for any particular generation of the official Pokémon games, but instead incorporate different elements of the mechanics from Generations V and VI, along with its own system for deciding priority for inherited moves. The mechanics mostly follow those of Generation VI, with the notable exception of the inheritance of TM and HM moves, a feature that only existed up to Generation V in the official games.


==Inheriting moves==
A unique feature of Pokémon Insurgence is the passing down of TM and HM moves while still otherwise retaining the mechanics of Generation VI. However, while both the mother and father can pass down egg moves, only the father can pass down a TM or HM move.
The priority for inheriting moves is as follows:
* The father's TM and HM moves are passed first, in reverse-numerical order.
* The mother's primary type egg moves are passed second, in reverse-alphabetical order.
* The mother's other egg moves and the father's egg moves are passed third, in reverse-alphabetical order.
==Examples==
The following examples are taken from a [https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonInsurgence/comments/3jih9m/breeding_moves_mechanics_tested/ series of tests] performed by Reddit user [https://www.reddit.com/user/Aboodie Aboodie] in version 1.1.6.

Revision as of 02:32, 11 September 2015

The breeding mechanics of Pokémon Insurgence do not follow the rules for any particular generation of the official Pokémon games, but instead incorporate different elements of the mechanics from Generations V and VI, along with its own system for deciding priority for inherited moves. The mechanics mostly follow those of Generation VI, with the notable exception of the inheritance of TM and HM moves, a feature that only existed up to Generation V in the official games.

Inheriting moves

A unique feature of Pokémon Insurgence is the passing down of TM and HM moves while still otherwise retaining the mechanics of Generation VI. However, while both the mother and father can pass down egg moves, only the father can pass down a TM or HM move.

The priority for inheriting moves is as follows:

  • The father's TM and HM moves are passed first, in reverse-numerical order.
  • The mother's primary type egg moves are passed second, in reverse-alphabetical order.
  • The mother's other egg moves and the father's egg moves are passed third, in reverse-alphabetical order.
