I was checking Charizard's learnset and it says it can only know Fly in Pokemon Yellow. This if for Generation I. Why can't Charizard learn Fly in Pokemon Blue/Red but in Pokemon Yellow it can?
>Charizard was unable to learn Fly through HM02 in Red and Blue. This was changed starting with Yellow, making it possible to still get a Charizard with Fly in the original games by trading one from a later version.
