Swirlix's egg groups: Fairy

The egg moves for Swirlix are listed below, alongside compatible parent Pokémon it can breed with.

You will need to breed a female Swirlix with a compatible male Pokémon, with either parent (from Gen 6+) knowing the egg move in question. Alternatively, if you already have a Swirlix with the egg move it can breed with Ditto.
