In {{game|Emerald}}, this process is similar but more complicated. First, a random IV is passed from one of the parents to the baby. Afterwards, a random IV of any stat other than HP, is inherited from either parent to the baby. If this IV is from the same stat as the first IV (not necessarily the same IV value, depending on whether or not the same parent passed it on), it will override it. Finally, another random IV of any stat other than HP and Defense, is passed from one of the parents to the baby. This IV will override any of the previous two if it is from the same stat. The remaining stats (a number ranging from 3 to 5) are determined at random, again with the possibility of one or more IVs coinciding with those of the parents. | In {{game|Emerald}}, this process is similar but more complicated.

Another change introduced in Emerald is the ability to inherit [[Natures|Nature]], which also influences stats. If the mother (or Ditto) is holding an {{evostone|Everstone}}, the baby has a 50% chance of inheriting that Pokémon's Nature. When breeding a female Pokémon with Ditto, it is Ditto whose Nature has the increased 50% chance of being inherited in case it holds Everstone. | Another change introduced in Emerald is the ability to inherit [[Natures|Nature]], which also influences stats.

Something else added in Emerald is breeding a [[Pichu (Pokémon)|Pichu]] that knows the move [[Volt Tackle (move)|Volt Tackle]]. When breeding a [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]] or [[Raichu (Pokémon)|Raichu]] holding a [[Light Ball]], the offspring Pichu will know the move Volt Tackle. | |||
