Useful breeding chains

Useful breeding chains! In case someone is too lazy to do all the research by himself...

	Heracross with Swords Dance and Megahorn Pinsir or Scyther (bug) -> Heracross (bug) -> Heracross (bug) Train the first heracross above level 54 to learn megahorn, breed again to have both swords dance and megahorn on a level 50 heracross. So the final moveset could be: Swords Dance, Megahorn, Brick Break and Endure.
	Marowak with Rockslide, Earthquake, Double-Edge and Swords Dance Smeargle (field) -> Rhyhorn (field/monster) -> Cubone If you didn't have Double-Edge on the Smeargle, you can still get it if you don't let cubone evolve until it learns Double-edge or breed the marowak again with all the 4 moves

I can update the opening post if you decided to post any other useful chains.

Pro tip: Check the first pokemon of evolution line when thinking about chains. For an example, you can't use Gyarados in chains because Magikarp likes to splash around. I had to scrap two chains i had planned until i realized this...

Holy crap getting Swords Dance onto Hera looks consuming. Though very helpful I must say. The longer complicated stuff always makes me happy (clearly I enjoy torturing myself)

Edit: WAIT! It doesn't need to be that long!
Pinsir and Scyther learn the move by levelup and are in the bug egg group, thus can breed it directly to Heracross. Pinsir is also available in the game corner for pretty cheap.
Shorter chain FTW

Phew, a good thing I didn't start breeding it yet xD

Added the shorter chain instead.

I thought it was a wee bit long for only two moves.

You could also do a "hard to obtain" move list. Like how Heat Wave is only learnable by Charizard with the move relearner, or Superpower is only on Nidoqueens. Those types of moves are very useful and fun to breed around since they are fairly rare.
