Some aspects and contradictions of breeding in the games have spawned debate and confusion. Those Pokémon which breed differently whether holding or not holding an Incense are also popularly debated, most especially if the Incense is necessary in the first place to make an excuse as to why the Baby forms could not be previously obtained. Also, some unusual pairings of Pokémon can be found within the Egg Groups, such as {{p|Sandslash}} and {{p|Arbok}}, or the [[HSOWA|popular example]] of {{p|Wailord}} and {{p|Skitty}}. | Some aspects and contradictions of breeding in the games have spawned debate and confusion.

One particularly unusual note is that {{p|Nidorina}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}} cannot breed, despite the fact that their [[Nidoran♀ (Pokémon)|pre-evolution]] and male counterparts can. No reason has been given for this. | One particularly unusual note is that {{p|Nidorina}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}} cannot breed, despite the fact that their [[Nidoran♀ (Pokémon)|pre-evolution]] and male counterparts can.

Also, {{P|Manaphy}} is obtained by hatching an egg that is transfered from [[Pokémon Ranger]], but if Manaphy is bred with Ditto, the offspring will be a {{P|Phione}}, who can't evolve into Manaphy. | |||

In the [[Pokémon anime|anime]], Pokémon refers to an entire line of work practiced by [[Pokémon breeder]]s, such as [[Brock]]. So far, the anime has shown and discussed little about the literal breeding of Pokémon to produce eggs, but it is assumed this is part of a Pokémon breeder's work. | |||
Pokémon breeding in the anime focuses heavily on raising healthy Pokémon and keeping them in top condition by grooming them well and feeding them nutritious [[Pokémon food|food]]. | |||
