Cobblemon Breeding and Daycare Guide: how it works
Breeding lets you raise Pokemon with better IVs, natures, abilities and egg moves. Pastures and an incubator run through a menu, and timers keep going while you are offline.
How to open it: Type /breed or /daycare to open the breeding menu with your pastures and incubator.
You start with 1 pasture and can unlock up to 5.
- Egg timer: A pair produces an egg after 3 hours plus 5,000 steps, or after 6 hours no matter how far you walked.
- Hatching: Eggs hatch on the same rule: 3 hours plus 5,000 steps, or 6 hours.
- IVs: 3 IVs are inherited, or 5 if either parent holds a Destiny Knot.
- Power items: A Power item forces its stat to be inherited.
- Nature: Nature is random unless a parent holds an Everstone, which also passes a regional form.
- Hidden abilities: Hidden abilities pass 60% of the time from the mother or the non-Ditto parent.
- Egg moves: Egg moves known by either parent pass down with no held item needed.
- Shiny eggs: Each egg has a 1 in 4096 shiny chance, plus 0.1% for each shiny parent.
Note: Eggs locked by the breeding system are marked untradeable.
Tips
- One walk counts for every egg and pasture at once, so walking while everything runs saves time.
- Boats, minecarts, riding, flying and walking the same ground within 10 minutes do not count as steps.
- Pokemon edited in PokeBuilder and rewards from Hard or higher dungeons cannot be bred.
- Unlock more pastures by breeding 15 eggs and hatching 35, 100 and 250 Pokemon.
Breeding and the daycare
Type /breed (or /daycare) to open the breeding menu. Put a compatible pair in a pasture; it produces an egg after 3 hours plus 5,000 steps walked, or after 6 hours no matter how far you walked. The timer keeps running while you are offline.
Eggs go to the incubator and hatch the same way: 3 hours plus 5,000 steps, or 6 hours. One walk counts for every egg and pasture at once, but boats, minecarts, riding, flying and walking the same ground again within 10 minutes do not count.
You start with 1 pasture and earn more by breeding 15 eggs and hatching 35, 100 and 250 Pokemon, up to 5 pastures.
- IVs: 3 are inherited from the parents, or 5 if either parent holds a Destiny Knot. A Power item forces its stat to be inherited.
- Nature: random, unless a parent holds an Everstone. An Everstone on a regional-form parent also passes the regional form.
- Ability: hidden abilities pass 60% of the time from the mother (or the non-Ditto parent).
- Egg moves known by either parent are passed down with no held item needed.
- Shiny chance on an egg is 1 in 4096, plus 0.1% for each shiny parent.
- Pokemon edited in PokeBuilder and rewards from Hard or higher dungeons cannot be bred.
