The Bug Egg Group (Japanese: むし Bug) is one of the fifteen Egg Groups. As of Generation VI, 70 Pokémon belong to this group.
Characteristics
Most Bug-type Pokémon fall into this Egg Group, making its characteristics similar to that of the Bug-type itself. Other arthropod Pokémon such as Drapion, Gliscor and Flygon are also included in this group, despite not actually being Bug types.
In this Egg Group, moves are not passed down as easily, as most base-level Bug Pokémon cannot learn any moves by breeding. Also there is a notably small amount of Pokémon that are in this group and another, making chain breeding difficult as well. The Pokémon of this Egg Group have a number of unique ways of evolving.

Trivia
- The Bug Egg Group is nearly completely exclusive to Bug-type Pokémon; however, it does notably contain several arthropods that aren't Bug types and lacks Anorith and Armaldo who belong in the Water 3 Group, Shedinja who belongs in the Mineral Group, and Genesect who belongs in the Undiscovered Group.
- Notably, while Nincada and Ninjask are in this Egg Group, their relative Shedinja is not. It is instead in the Mineral Group.
- Shelmet and Accelgor are included in this group despite not being arthropods, but mollusks.
