Is hidden power fire necessary for it? I've been trying

Its main niche is instant Scizor and Ferrothorn removal, so yes.

Hidden power is his third best move because he has no fucking moves. Hidden power ground is good though, especially if you need it for Heatran.

Hidden Power anything is a meme.

Well, alright. Back to breeding, I guess.

Worst case scenerio you forget about I.V breeding alongside HP Fire and just drop the destiny knot and randomly swap out parents until you get one with HP Fire and then just Hyper train it.

end yourself

Just be thankful Hidden Power has one solid Power now

the only reason to have it on your team is to kill skarm, ferro, celesteela and scizor, so I would say so yes

however with HP ground you can beat heatran, which beats you 100% of the time otherwise. you need scarf to do this, though

Yes, that´s why magnezone is good, he can effectively catch annoying steel types, and get rid of them.
