British slang

Isn't 'mankey' also British slang for dirty? -BJG

bloody mankey! Evkl 07:16, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I've heard 'mank' but not 'manky'. Maybe I just live in the wrong place? --FabuVinny 03:39, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, manky is but mankey isn't... But it's years old now...--Jake30502 11:45, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Mouth

Mankey doesn't seem to have a mouth, how can it eat?? -- 16:18, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

it's one of those things. Meowth doesn't have a nose but can still smell.Solar Dragon 16:32, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Doesn't it use it's snout or pig nose to eat? - unsigned comment from Takiromisu (talk • contribs)

Probably just hidden under the fur or something. Also see Drifloon, who seems not to have a mouth but was in fact shown to face one. The Dark Fiddler - You enter a poorly lit room... 19:16, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Moveset at Birth

How does he have 5 moves at birth? How does the game handle this? --Aescula 08:10, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Covet is skipped over, and can only be obtained via move relearner. --SnorlaxMonster 08:18, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

Thank you! I assume this is basically how it goes for Mr. Mime and others the same? If I wanted to tell someone what they had at birth, use the last 4? --Aescula 08:23, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

Yes, that's how it works. The egg basically "learns" each move on that list in turn, then each egg move/TM move that the father knows, forgetting the earliest learned ones like in the day care whenever it gets to a fifth move. Werdnae (talk) 08:29, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
