from the game's learnsets and the relearner ruleClamperl evolves when traded; the comparison below assumes you do it at level 20, the level you first meet it. Nothing is lost by evolving straight away: every move Clamperl learns after that, Huntail learns too. Huntail learns 5 moves of its own after that: Water Pulse at 22, Scary Face at 29, Crunch at 36, Baton Pass at 43, Hydro Pump at 50.
Rule the game applies: the Move Relearner in Fallarbor Town (he takes a Heart Scale) teaches only the level-up moves of the form you hand him, at or below its current level. Delaying an evolution costs the evolved form's higher base stats for every level you wait; a move you barely use is not worth that.
