lol. Misunderstanding caused by elapsed time.
The time stamp is August 14 for my original comment on this topic. I also forgot to add another edit back then to correct for the Draco Meteor issue. As it turns out, I think I was somehow under the mistaken impression at the time that Charizard could learn it. Either that, or I was tired and selected the 'Zard by accident, which is why nothing came up for teaching it in Opelucid. As for the other things: I ended up figuring out somehow (probably from that link Jerryzoo posted, but memory is fuzzy on that).
This is what I get for playing other games and coming back to the forum to find that somehow an old topic got necro'd and responding in haste to "clarify" without stopping to "Verify". :P
Cheers & ty!
EDIT: And since I'm tired-posting, I had to edit THIS one about 5 times, too. lol
