Breeding

Aetheria's breeding system is based on how breeding works in the main Pokémon games. There are, however, some important differences.

To begin type "/pokebreed" to open the breeding GUI. Pokémon produced are placed directly in the player's party or PC and do not need to be hatched. The breeding cooldown is 8 minutes. Pokémon bred together must be either the opposite gender to one another, or any gender with a ditto. The two Pokémon (excluding ditto) must be in the same Egg Group. You can breed most genderless Pokémon with a ditto (excluding: Legendaries, "Baby Pokémon", and Galarian Fossils).

It should be noted that unlike the games, there is no way to boost your odds when breeding for shiny Pokémon. Breeding a shiny with another Pokémon also does not increase the odds. The odds through breeding will always be the same as the base odds, which can be checked with the command "/pokeodds".

Albino Pokémon are unable to be bred and cannot be obtained from breeding.

Breeding Regional Pokémon

To breed a regional Pokémon you need to have the regional Pokémon you want to breed to be holding an Everstone. (Only one parent has to be holding the Everstone to pass down the regional form, note that breeding two regional forms together still requires one to hold an Everstone.)

Example:

Passing Down Nature

Natures are passed down when one or both parents holds an Everstone (the same as passing down regional variants). If both parents are holding an Everstone the Nature is randomized between the two of them with a ratio of (50/50).

IV Breeding Guide

Destiny Knot:

The first thing you need to know for breeding high IV Pokémon is how a Destiny Knot works. These can be obtained by either buying or crafting them.

Crafting Recipe:

When breeding Pokémon with no items, only three stats are inherited from the parents while the other three are randomized.

Example:

(Example Above: "Xs" are stats that weren't passed down to the child and were randomized).

Breeding with a Destiny Knot passes down five stats from both parents instead of three. This does not stack, meaning the maximum that can be passed down is five, with one stat always randomized.

Example:

(Example Above: Attack is the only random stat, while the other five are inherited from the parents).
