How are Pokeballs passed down from the parents when breeding

pokemon-x-y

I plan on breeding two pokemon (one in a timer ball and one in a pokeball) and I want the pokemon to be in a normal Pokeball. Which one will it get?

Best Answer

For Female - Male breeding (standard):

  • The Pokeball the child inherits will be of the Female's Pokeball

For Female - Ditto breeding (no Male to breed with):

  • The Pokeball the child inherits will be of the Female's Pokeball

For Male - Ditto breeding (no Female to breed with):

  • The Pokeball the child inherits will be a Pokeball, regardless of what Pokeball Ditto is in

For Ungendered - Ditto Breeding (breeding Rotom, Unown, etc.)

  • The Pokeball the child inherits will be a Pokeball, regardless of what Pokeball Ditto is in
