Talk:Surf (move)

Add something to Trivia?

I think we should add that this move can be learned by most of the pokemon (123 in Generation IV). Or that this is the most learned Water type in this game so far.

no, because moves like Hidden Power and Toxic can be learned by ANYONE. itd be like saying Fly can be learned by almost any Flying type. its self explanitory. Surf = water type. therefor, almost all the water types can learn it, along with the odd one here and there.

Hidden beta item

I think we should add this little trivia fact (I have done this, and it works!): There's a hidden key item in the Generation 1 games called ????? that allows you to Surf outside of battle without the need for HM03. It can be obtained with the Gameshark code for item modifying, with the hex variable set to 07. If the game is saved while the code is active, the item stays in the pouch like any other key item, even after the GameShark is removed. To use, just go up to water, and select it from the item pouch. The item was created in the beta versions, and later made unavailable, but not removed entirely. --隼也 じゅんや 17:57, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

It sounds like it could just be a simple glitch rather than a beta item. --FabuVinny ^T-C-S 19:27, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

I don't know, but either way, it's there, and I just think people should know about it. --隼也 じゅんや 21:10, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Anime Surf

Unless the trainer specifically says's "Use Surf", then the occurrence should not be listed under the 'In the anime' section. --Theryguy512 22:04, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Pics in the article

Why does the picture in this article show Pikachu use Surf? I think it's better to use a picture of a Pokémon who can normally learn the move and not Pikachu that learn it only by event. ---Samu- 17:44, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Whoever put it there...probably put it up for bragging rights. I think what's important is that a pic of a Pokémon using the move is there. |>H1|23•57R1K3 19:18, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Ah the new trivia...

You know, it'd be better if we had a list of these moves, or a category... or something. TTEchidna 18:38, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Wouldn't that just be a matter of going through the TM, HM and move tutor moves? I'm fairly sure, but could be mistaken, that all TMs and MTs are learned via level up for one Pokémon, so that just leaves the HMs. Cut, Strength, Rock Smash, Dive, Rock Climb and Surf...? — THE TROM — 21:55, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Not Dive. Nine Pokémon learn it via leveling up in Gen. IV. R.A. Hunter Blade 22:04, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

Well, when I added that earlier today, I actually didn't pay any attention to the move I was looking at. Realizing that it's an HM makes much sense. Kevin Y (talk) 22:57, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
