Something wrong with breeding?

[Artemis]

So i was trying to breed chikorita and turtwig

and i used a 6 IV bulbasaur as the father

note: all 3 belong to Grass/Monster egg group

but the day care always says they don't seem to like each other much

 

I know i'll eventually still get an egg but the probability of me getting one after every cycle is less which hampers my breeding pace

is it something to do with the fact that they're starters

and they are less likely to make eggs?

Ratio depends on whether they are same species and if they have same OT

Don't worry, that situation is perfectly normal.

 

I guess you are used to breed with materials you got from trades. That's actually because Original Trainer ID also plays a part in the chances of getting an egg.

 

The fact you have less eggs is because you're trying to breed two differents Pokemons with you as the Original Trainer.

To put this in numbers :

 

Different Pokemons/ Same ID : 20% chances of an egg each cycle.

Different Pokemon / Different ID : 50%

Same Pokemon/ Same ID : 50%

Same Pokemon/Different ID : 80% (I guess)

 

If you don't have it, I suggest you to get the Oval Charm, which is... somewhere under the Azurine lake.

i usually would but i always replace the female specimen if the offspring female is better in IVs

so it's easier if the male is a different OT
