Egg Groups are based on biological traits of [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon species]], generally allowing biologically similar species to breed. However, there are some oddities within Egg Groups: for example, the {{egg2|Field}} contains a particularly wide variety of Pokémon species, so that seemingly illogical pairings can be noted within it, such as {{p|Skitty}} {{Appendix|Fan terminology#HSOWA|and}} {{p|Wailord}}. | Egg Groups are based on biological traits of [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon species]], generally allowing biologically similar species to breed.

Egg Groups are not displayed in any [[core series]] game; however, they have been canonically mentioned in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] as a part of [[Earl Dervish]]'s Pokémon Academy's extensive data banks, in [[Pokédex 3D]], and in various strategy guides. | Egg Groups are not displayed in any [[core series]] game; however, they have been canonically mentioned in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] as a part of [[Earl Dervish]]'s Pokémon Academy's extensive data banks, in [[Pokédex 3D]], and in various strategy guides. | ||
