How do you breed a Sigilyph to get Psycho Shift and Stored Power? (X/Y)?

Question

I've never been interested in breeding a perfect Pokemon, but I really want to get a Sigilyph with both these moves. Keep in mind I have little knowledge in Pokemon breeding.

Answer 1

This is actually fairly easy, if you have access to the right Pokemon. The right Pokemon in this case is Xatu.

Xatu is in the Flying egg group, the same as Sigilyph, so they can directly breed with each other.

What you need is a male Xatu, which knows the moves Stored Power and Psycho Shift. They learn both these moves levelling up, at levels 47 and 37, respectively. Now breed that male Xatu with your female Sigilyph. All of the offspring will be Sigilyphs that know Stored Power and Psycho Shift.

The downside to this method is that I am pretty sure that Xatu are only found in the Friend Safari, so if you don't have a friend with Xatu in their safari you might be out of luck. But try the GTS or have a look around for someone with Xatu in their safari.

Thanks!

Also, are there any other pokemon that could be used other than Xatu?

Not if you want both moves. For example, Noctowl gets Psycho Shift, but not Stored Power.
