If you go back to an older episode where TM breeding was still a mechanic or switch to Reborn Hardcore (just when breeding) where TM breeding is still a thing, it might be possible. Do note the first risks corrupting your save files, so I would just recommend switching to the Reborn Hardcore mod for the breeding and hatching. You still to find something in it's egg group that learns Sword Dance by level up and have it be the father.

0 TheMetaphysician Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Thank you guys, that is very helpful. I wonder if I can just find someone else who has already done that and get them to trade me one. As far as switching to Hardcore, how do I switch back and forth? Will this work: I download Hardcore as a separate program, run it, and it automatically loads my current save? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then copy/past your current Vanilla save into the Hardcore save folder. If you do the breeding yourself, just copy/paste it back to vanilla when done, unless you want to fight any opponents you have left on Hardcore mode.

0 TheMetaphysician Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Ok, it looks like Ariados learns Swords Dance (through the move relearner), and I should be able to then breed it (in Hardcore) with venipede to get swords dance. That's my plan. If anybody sees any problems with it, stop me now please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 seki108 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) Theoretically, it should work. Just be sure the egg hatches in Hardcore; the move won't show up if it hatches in vanilla even if you laid it in Hardcore (I've tried when breeding Protect Eevees).

0 TheMetaphysician Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 Well, it didn't work. And I know why. Scolipede can learn Swords Dance by TM, but Venipede can't. So I think I'm stuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 TheMetaphysician Posted October 6, 2017 Author Share Posted October 6, 2017 I found a kind of solution: what I wanted was a Scolipede with Speed Boost and Protect/Swords Dance/Baton Pass all on the same set (to pass speed and attack boosts). I should be able to get a speed boost Ninjask with those three moves. I just need to breed Protect onto it, since it learns the other two by level up; and I can use my Venipedes I just bred (they learn Protect at level 15) and use your method. Not as good as Scolipede, but it will do what I want it to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
