Generation IV

By move tutor

In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum

An elderly man, much like the woman on Cape Brink, appears on Route 228 in the Battle Zone, and will teach it to the three fully evolved Water starters of the previous generations, as well as Empoleon. It is also required for each Pokémon to have high happiness rating in order for it to learn Hydro Cannon.

Trivia

  • Smeargle is the only Pokémon that is not a Template:Type2 starter Pokémon able to learn Hydro Cannon, due to Sketch.
  • Mew, though repeatedly said on the Pokédex to be able to learn any move, is not able to learn Hydro Cannon because it can only be taught to Water-type starter Pokémon.
