Breeding an avalugg and roggenrola to get wide guard.

[thumpnasty]

For some reason whenever i have a male avalugg and female roggenrolla in the daycare they "play with other pokemon" they are both in the mineral group so i dont understand why they wont breed.

That's because Avalugg is only in the Mineral group as of gen 8 and Reborn goes off of gen 7 mechanics. Additionally it looks as though Avalugg doesn't get Wide Guard by breeding in gen 8 anyway, just by level up/relearning it, which it doesn't get in gen 7 either.

 

Edit: Oh wait! You meant you're trying to get Wide Guard on a Roggenrola. In that case, the only Pokémon that passes Wide Guard to Roggenrola in gen 7 is Probopass, so you just need to catch a male Nosepass (in Apophyll Cave or the Scrapyard by Rock Smash encounter, I believe), level it up in the Abandoned Power Plant, go to the Move Relearner to get it Wide Guard, and then breed it with your Roggenrola.

So it has to be a probo pass to level up right i cant have a nosepass and roggenrola in the daycare it has to be a probopass and rogenrolla?

 

EDIT: also do i have to have the yureu key or just walk into the powerplant and give it a candy and it evolves?

Correct, but only because Probopass gets Wide Guard by level up and Nosepass doesn't (only gets it as an egg move from a Probopass that already knows it). I can't recall exactly how chain breeding works, but if you somehow get a male Nosepass with Wide Guard that might work too, and even if it doesn't it's not difficult to evolve it.

okay so it was working it just takes more steps to trigger the egg from the old man thanks for the help

No problem!
