What's with all of these span id tags? Whoever's making them, they're putting them in wrong and it's showing up on the page. I'm not going to delete them, just in case they're important. →[[User:Evin290|Evin290]] 15:20, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Just occured to me - why is it that this article's first two paragraphs of content are about breeding in general and not really related to egg groups?  I think I'm gonna rewrite that... --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 06:26, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Technically a lot of Pokemon listed as "No Eggs" on here aren't in that group. For example, Solrock is in the Mineral group. The reason it can't breed with other Pokemon in that group is because it doesn't have a gender. Ditto can breed with genderless Pokemon who are not in the No Eggs and Ditto groups, including Pokemon like the genderless Solrock in the Mineral group. So, should this page be rewritten with a note somewhere about genderless Pokemon in various groups? --Meowth346

Yeah, probably should. --Ketsuban

Solarock isn't in the Mineral group. All groups are accurate. I used the Nintendo Power Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire guide. All groups are accurate. I am not rewriting this page, Meowth. If you want, you can add a thing about Ditto able to breed with certain genderless pokemon and list who they are. LedianX 01:47, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I know we talked for a moment on IM about this, but I'll add it here as well: the game's internal data which is used to decide if two Pokemon can breed, it lists Solrock as being in the Mineral group, etc. The only reason it cannot breed with other Pokemon in this groups is because it doesn't have a gender. If you could modify the game's data to give Solrock a gender, it would breed with Pokemon in the Mineral group. Pokemon in the No Eggs group cannot breed with anything, no matter what. That said, I could easily re-write the page to sort the Pokemon into their correct egg groups, with a note about genderless Pokemon. But I must say, Nintendo of America's player guides cannot be taken more seriously than the game's internal data/assembly which determines what egg group each species is in and which Pokemon can breed with which. --Meowth346


Changed it so they're listed. I hope it is satisfactory.LedianX 02:11, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Not really a quibble, since I know it's true, but has it ever been explained *why* Nidorina and Nidoqueen can't breed? (Y'know, outside MR, that is, with the Nidoqueen apparently breeding with the Ryhorn)--BJ
