Breeding 104

Okay here comes a fun one, I hope that you are reading all of these before starting any breeding.

104 is gonna be based on getting the right nature. The best way to get the right nature is to find a Pokemon in your breeding group that already has it or breed useless Pokemon that is in your chain until you get one that is in your breeding group. Let's say that we want a Jolly nature on our Charmander.

So, you already have a Charmander that has 2 perfect stats, You could choose to breed this with your Ditto while holding the items over and over until you get the right nature, which could take 5 minutes or 3 days.

So, let's look through our boxes. Do we have a Dragonite or Char____ with a jolly nature. Woohooo!! We do have one!! Now we'll start a little differently, let's do the same process Jolly Dragonite wit D Dance and breed it with our Char____. Before we put it in the daycare we need to give the Dragonite an everstone. With an everstone in hand we have a 50% chance of passing that nature. So now we will have a Jolly D Dance Charmander. Let's breed it (with everstone in hand) with our ditto holding a Power Anklet (speed). Now get a Charmander with max Speed and a Jolly nature. Take that and give everstone and breed again with a your Ditto with Power Bracer (Att). You should pass the Att and nature most of the time....but the speed will pass less frequently. It will happen, but it will take a little longer than the other way.

The benefits of nature are better in almost all circumstances than the IVs, but both are so very important if you want to battle competitively.

So, here comes the wrap up..........
What have we learned?

Nature is passed 50% of the time by giving Everstone.
Power items used to pass IVs from parent to child.
There is still a 3 in 12 chance of passing other stats (via the 2 from one and one from another parent mechanic).
Moves pass from the father.
Pokemon species passes from the mother.

Hope this has helped explain a few things. We'll get into training soon.
