 In [[Pokémon Emerald]], if the mother (or Ditto) is holding an Everstone the baby will inherit that Pokémon's [[Nature]].

+Some aspects and contradictions of breeding in the games have spawned debate and confusion.  For example, breeding {{p|Snorlax}} in [[Generation]]s [[Generation II|II]] or [[Generation III|III]] will create another Snorlax. However, breeding Snorlax in [[Generation IV]] will create a {{p|Munchlax}}. 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}}.
+One particularly unusual note is that {{p|Nidorina}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}} cannot breed, despite the fact that their pre-evolution and male counterparts can.  No reason has been given for this.

-==The confusion with breeding==
-Also, breeding even creates confusion. For example, breeding [[Snorlax]] in one of the games in the generations [[Generation II|II]] or[[Generation III|III]], itt will occur a another [[Snorlax]]. However, breeding [[Snorlax]] in [[Generation IV]] and onwards, it will occur a [[Munchlax]]. This causes a mayor problem in Pokémon-games, showing that it is smarter to giving evolutins rather than prevolutions to older Pokémon.
