Chinchou

Chinchou's egg groups: Water 2

The egg moves for Chinchou are listed below, alongside compatible parent Pokémon it can breed with.

You will need to breed a female Chinchou with a compatible male Pokémon, with the male (for Gen 2-5) knowing the egg move in question. Alternatively, if you already have a Chinchou with the egg move it can breed with Ditto.
