I think these are the stats taken straight from the game. Serebii, LegendaryPokemon and most other websites tell you how many egg cycles you need to hatch the pokemon. Egg cycles remove 256 (255 in gen IV) steps every time they occur. Thus their stats are the egg cycles * 256 [[User:Link3710|Link]] 23:35, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

Umm... I was breeding a bunch of Riolu the other day, and it took 6885 steps for them to hatch, not 6630.  This is 27*255, not 26*255 like the formula claims.  Does this mean that Pokemon don't hatch when the egg cycles/happiness value reach 0, but rather when it reaches -1?  I was using Pokemon Pearl if it helps.  (If this confuses anybody, imagine a Pokemon egg with an egg cycle of 3.  After 255 steps, the egg cycle would drop to 2.  A second and third 255 steps would drop it to 1 and 0.  If it hatched upon reaching 0, it would be 3*255 steps.  But if it had to finish out the 0 phase to reach -1, it would be 4*255 steps instead, which is what I suspect.) --[[User:Paranoid Trainer|Paranoid Trainer]] 05:27, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
