Pokémon can be bred by leaving two compatible Pokémon at the [[Pokémon Day Care]] in [[Generation II]] and beyond, located on {{rt|34|Johto}} in [[Johto]], {{rt|117|Hoenn}} or the [[Battle Resort]]{{sup/6|ORAS}} in [[Hoenn]], {{OBP|Four Island|town}} in the [[Sevii Islands]], [[Solaceon Town]] in [[Sinnoh]], {{rt|3|Unova}} in [[Unova]], and {{rt|7|Kalos}} in [[Kalos]].

Two Pokémon are compatible if they are of the same species (or share at least one [[Egg Group]]) and are of opposite genders; alternatively, breeding is usually still possible as long as one of them is {{p|Ditto}}, even if the other parent is genderless, and in fact, genderless Pokémon can breed only with Ditto. Pokémon in the {{egg|Undiscovered}} egg group cannot breed whatsoever, and Ditto cannot breed with itself. In Generation II only, Pokémon with similar IVs cannot breed, due to the likelihood of familial relation.
