[Johto, Kanto, today a sad Butterfree is now staring at you from somewhere inside Goldenrod's Pokémon Center. Enjoy.]
This is Esuna, my Butterfree. She's a Bug- and Flying-type, and she cannot use the Hidden Machine Fly.
[The sad Butterfree is replaced with the back of a Volcarona, who is currently busy looking out the window.]
This is Ceo, my Volcarona. He's a Bug- and Fire-type, and unlike Esuna he has successfully learned Fly. In fact, he can even bear for my weight for a few moments.
[Only a few, but that's still pretty impressive for a bug.]
...Sometimes I wonder who created those TMs and HMs, and what was their logic when choosing Pokémon compatibilities. You'd think the Flying-type would be more likely to get that particular attack, even if they both have wings.
[Except not, because that would be logical and sensible.]

The only exceptions are my Pidgeot, Skarmory, and Garchomp, but that's probably because they've all figured out ways to deal with her. Plus, she can breed with the first two.
