If Pokémon forgets move in G5, then evolves into Pokémon that doesn't learn the move, can the Pokémon relearn that move?

Question

I taught my Magneton the move Tri Attack by going to the Move Reminder in the PWT in Pokémon White 2 (Magnemite didn't learn this move). But then I looked at the Magnezone moveset, and it showed that Magnezone can only learn Tri Attack in previous evolutions (in other words, as Magnezone). So can I delete this move now and still be able to recover it later on?

Comments

In most cases, I don't think so. That's why they're called pre-evolution moves.

Answer 1

Most likely not, since Tri-Attack can only be learned by Magnezone from previous evolutions, and that relearnable moves are based on their moves through level up as that evolution, it would be better to keep Tr-Attack on Magnezone.

Thanks! I'll do that.
