This challenge requires that you have at least one other game finished, and that you have a fairly large variety of Pokemon. The game you wish to do your challenge on should be able to trade with the completed game, and be able to receive eggs near the start. So, you can't do this on the first generation game. Also, to my knowledge, you can't trade eggs to Fire Red or Leaf Green before the National Dex, so that may be off-limits as well.

Your first goal is to start up your completed game, and, if you haven't already,breed all of the Pokemon you have that are fully evolved, or don't evolve any further. Don't breed the same evolutionary line more than once, unless it's from something that has a split evolution, like Eevee. After you receive each egg put it in a box, but try not to memorize which one it is. Organize the eggs how you like, but it would be best to keep them in the same box, or adjacent boxes if you have too many of them.

After you have taken care of your breeding in your completed game, pick up the game you wish to do your challenge on, and start a new game. Grab your starter, and go through the story as much as you have to before you can trade. At that point, go and catch up to six other Pokemon, depending on how many eggs you want to trade over.

Once those things are taken care of, trade your newly caught Pokemon for random eggs from your completed game. Once you have finished trading, you can choose to hatch all of the eggs at once, or one at a time, it's up to you.

You will most likely still have one other Pokemon, either one you caught or your starter, so as soon as an egg hatches, release any extra Pokemon you have from earlier.

For those who can't trade with themselves, mainly because you don't have two game systems or two games, have a friend send you random eggs instead.



Rules


  1. Only use the Pokemon you hatched from eggs in battles.
  2. Try to make the eggs as random as possible (i.e. 'Do not memorize which Pokemon produced what egg' )
  3. Your completed game should have at least 30 Pokemon that are either fully evolved, or don't evolved.
  4. Legendaries and Pokemon that don't breed should not count as one of the 30.
  5. You can only trade for evolution Pokemon like Haunter and Kadabra.
  6. If the game you wish to do your challenge does not allow for eggs to be traded in early, feel free to choose another game. If you change games, reply to this topic announcing the change.
  7. If you don't want to choose a different game you can hack in eggs, so long as you can make what hatches from them random.
  8. If your Pokemon evolve, reply to this topic telling me which ones and update your sign-up info.
  9. You may get extra Pokemon as HM slaves, only if you need the HM to complete the game and one of your Pokemon can't learn it.
  10. Because Fly isn't necessary for completing the game, you may not catch an extra Pokemon to use it.
  11. When you get to a gym battle, or the Elite Four, you must put all extra HM slaves into the box.

Sorry, but the limit is six for this challenge. It may seem unfair, but I do have to put a limit somewhere, and six is that limit.

And, yes, egg moves are okay, so long as you pick the eggs randomly.

Also, for everyone, I have made a few updates in the rules. I've discovered some things about the games I needed to update for.

I'm also changing my game to Ruby, since I can't seem to trade eggs to Emerald early.

I have done a similar challenge with friends before~ This is real neat~
;A; I would do this if I had a full pokedex on one game. Sadly my Platinum went missing so my near-complete pokedex is gone :'< I feel like trying this version sometime~

Is there any way I could get someone to trade me 6 random eggs on my platinum in a few days? I have no way of getting random eggs for myself. I only know how to trade them in Black/White (call me a noob but I have been playing since gen 1, just haven't bred anything since gen 2 haha). I'd love to do the challenge, I just have no clue how to get myself eggs.

I updated the rules regarding HM slaves, so read over them real quick. I also updated everyone's information.

@Freerider - All you need to do is leave two Pokemon that are both opposite genders and in the same egg group, or a Pokemon and Ditto, with the Daycare couple and you'll get an egg.

I'm in for when BW2 comes out in Australia.
Is it alright if I up the difficulty and hatch one egg at the start and then one more after every second gym?

And what's the rule about Pokemon not native to the region?

Sorry for the long wait guys, another forum I was with had a very bad spammer problem, and I completely forgot about this place. It seems in that time my VBA stuff must've gotten deleted. If I can't find it in a week go ahead and count me out, and feel free to reject this challenge.
