'''Egg groups''' determine which Pokémon are able to interbreed in [[Pokémon breeding]]. [[Pokémon]] were first able to breed in the [[Second Generation]] games Pokémon Gold and Silver. Breeding allowed Pokémon to pass down [[DVs]] and moves to their children. Moves usually are inherited from the male Pokémon, while the child takes on the form of the mother in her basic form. A baby would hatch out of an egg after a specified number of steps in the game and would always be at level five.

When breeding, one typically has a 50/50 chance of getting male or female Pokémon. If the Pokémon is a [[Starter Pokémon]], or any of a number of other types which have different gender ratios than 50-50, the results are skewed.  Some Pokémon are genderless; some species can be only male or only female.
