Pokémon breeding: Difference between revisions

From [[Generation II]] to {{gen|V}}, all Eggs are obtained in standard red-and-white {{i|Poké Ball}}s. In later generations, this is still used as the default Poké Ball if another Poké Ball is not inherited.

In [[Generation VI]], the [[Poké Ball]] of the female Pokémon is always passed down to its offspring (even when bred with Ditto); male and [[gender unknown|gender-unknown Pokémon]] have no effect on their offspring's Poké Ball in this generation.  

From [[Generation VII]] onward, usually offspring will have the same Poké Ball as the female Pokémon, or the non-Ditto Pokémon when breeding with Ditto. However, if a male and female Pokémon of the same [[Pokémon (species)|species]] are bred (regardless of form), the offspring has an equal chance of inheriting either parent's Poké Ball.

The [[Master Ball]], [[Cherish Ball]], and [[Strange Ball]] cannot be passed down by breeding; instead, they are all passed down as if they were a standard Poké Ball.
