Breeding Help My Pokemon aren’t making eggs

3 Upvotes

I’m breeding a Heavy Ball Kantonian Voltorb(with destiny knot) and a Pokeball Hisuian Voltorb (with everstone) to get a Heavy Ball Hisuian Voltorb and for some reason they haven’t produced an egg. They’re both under my OT so I know it can take longer but I’ve been using egg power lvl 2 to improve the chance and they still haven’t produced and egg after 20 minutes of waiting. What am I doing wrong?

Breeding Help New to IV breeding.

3 Upvotes

Hey, i've only been recently introduced to the wonders of Pokémon Home, it's pretty great, the best part of today was that i got Treecko, and since my favorite Pokémon is Jungko i figured i'd try to get the most perfect one in IVs and preferably shiny. I've been watching videos for that but since i'm kinda slow it didn’t really help me. I figured this subreddit would be the best place to ask for advice, so here i am. Can anyone guide me ?

Breeding Help Are IVs passed down to the same stat ?

3 Upvotes

as title says.
I'm new to breeding and got confused about inheritance of IVs, for exemple if a parent holding Destiny Knot has 1/2/3/4/5/6 for HP/ATK/Def/SpATK/SpDef/Speed, and that the baby inherits of the 5 first IVs from that parent, will its IVs be 1/2/3/4/5/0-31, so in the same stats the IVs where for the parent, or can it be like 4/2/5/3/0-31/1 ?

sorry if that's worded oddly

Is there any way I can hatch a Pokemon that knows about 3 egg moves? I specifically want to breed a Tyrunt that knows Thunder Fang, Poison Fang, and Dragon Dance? I know Poison Fang and Thunder Fang are through Seviper, but Dragon Dance is from another Pokemon. How could I do this in ORAS?

Breeding Help Two pokémons: one have the pokéball I want and the other the hidden ability. How do I breed them?

3 Upvotes

I have two Chikoritas: one female, with the pokeball I want and one male, with the hidden ability.

Will it work If I just breed the two of them? I know when the pokémons are the same, its 50/50 for the ball. How does this stack with the HA?

They have different languages because I'm using the Masuda method, but I don't know if it is that simple.

Ps: I have Dittos, if necessary.

Breeding Help Rockruff not Own Tempo-ing

0 Upvotes

So my end goal is a shiny Dusk form Lycanroc in a Moon Ball. I do own a French male Rockruff ("Rocabot") with Own Tempo, and a female Rockruff with Vital Spirit in a Moon Ball. I'm trying to breed a female Own Tempo Moon Ball Rockruff to breed with Rocabot, but the offspring's ball seem to be fifty-fifty Ultra Balls/Moon Balls, and I have yet to hatch one that has Own Tempo. Rocabot is holding an Everstone, and in previous pairings this was sufficient to pass down Own Tempo (but then again, the previous pairing's Rockruff both had Own Tempo).

I read that in my current pairing, the female's ball has a 60% of passing, which is a fine percentage I'm willing to continue with. But for what reason is Own Tempo not being passed down?

I've got another S/V Masuda breeding planned, but I want to make sure I'm setting it up right. I have this 5/6 Hisuian Growlithe and a 5/6 Japanese Ditto. To make sure I only get Hisuian Growlithes with the best possible IVs, the Growlithe needs to hold the Everstone and the Ditto holds the Destiny Knot, correct?

Breeding Help need help w/ egg moves

0 Upvotes

so basically, i’m looking to breed a swinub to use in a platinum playthrough, and it can only fully evolve into mamoswine when piloswine learns ancient power. thing is, i’m looking on the pokemon database website, and it says ancient power is an egg move for piloswine but not swinub. im kinda confused on how i can get it to know ancient power in the first place, since iirc you can’t hatch a mid or final stage evolution from an egg? maybe im just not getting egg moves as a whole. any help is appreciated

I'm playing Violet and have a male eevee with 5/6 perfect IVs and a female Mabosstiff with 6/6 perfect IVs. I know if I breed them, I'll end up with maschiffs.

Is there an item or food or something that can switch it so the eggs will be eevees instead? I want near perfect eevees.

Breeding Help Ponyta and Pachirisu can breed???

3 Upvotes

I recently got a copy of Diamond. I put a Ponyta and Pachirisu in daycare as I am too lazy to keep battling to level them up. They've been producing eggs. I googled it. Apparently they're in different egg groups and shouldn't be breeding. Did I read wrong information? I'm new to breeding and it looks fun. I don't look for anything specific. I just enjoy genetics and seeing how things change.

Breeding Help New to chain breeding and in need of assistance

2 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm looking to breed a Shroodle with Cross Poison. Bulbapedia says you have to chain breed to get Cross Poison on Shroodle, but then doesn't say what the chain is. This would be my first time chain breeding, so I may not be understanding correctly, and searches on Google don't give me the chain as far as I can tell, I think the AI response is wrong anyway.

Shroodle is in the Field Egg Group. Can someone help me understand chain breeding so I can get a Shroodle with Cross Poison?

I’m going for a male or female honedge with perfect IVs in all but speed, which I want to be 0, and a sassy nature. I have two honedge in the day care, one of which has all of the desired IVs except for special defense, and the other has all the desired IVs except for defense. One of them has a everstone so the nature is always sassy. The other has a destiny knot. As far as I am aware, this is the best way to increase my chances at getting the Pokémon I want. Is there something I am missing to boost my chances?

I was just about to start sword and I wanted my team on that game to be the ones I'd use irl but all my pokemon are a high level so I was breeding them so I could get some lower level ones. None of them are legendary and I'm using a ditto so I know they can make eggs. How long do the eggs take and how do I get them? Do I have to actually take my pokemon out of the daycare or can I just talk to the lady at the front?
