I was looking on arons egg move page, and it said the only compatible parent to pass on Head Smash was the Rampardos line, but Cranidos/Rampardos isn't in SwSh. Is there another way?

But why would u even want Head Smash when there are much better moves out there?
Like what? Head Smash is a great wallbreaking move. If you don't want to miss then you can click Heavy Slam.
As Aggron takes no recoil from Head Smash due to its ability Rock Head, it's easily its best STAB Rock move. It has just as much accuracy as Stone Edge, as well as Head Smash having way better BP over Stone Edge (150 > 100). While Stone Edge does have an increased crit chance, having more BP from a move is much better than gambling for crits. Sure, Rock Slide is more accurate, but one Head Smash deals the same amount of damage as two Rock Slides, as well as the added fact that Rock Slides flinch chance won't have much of an effect with a Pokemon that has 50 base speed.

As you've already mentioned, Head Smash is one of Aggron's egg moves. The compatible parents that can teach Aggron these egg moves in SwSh would be Drednaw and Tyrantrum, which both learn Head Smash at level 66. Simply breed a male Drednaw/Tyrantrum with Head Smash with a female Aron/Lairon/Aggron, and the egg produced should hatch into an Aron with your desired egg move.

Oh OK. This site says only the Rampardos line can pass it on. Thanks!
Huh, odd. The egg moves page seems to be for BDSP, as it doesn't have any Pokemon that were available in Gen 5-8.
That is wierd
