Mhm! There are also moves called Egg Moves that can be passed down sometimes, though those moves are only passed down if certain Pokemon are bred together. Pokemon don't necessarily have to be the same species to breed, just the same egg group.

It may seem complex, but once you actually start trying to breed and see what works and what doesn't, you'll get the hang of it.
