  • Ah, the daycare.

    I like it. That's how I get my eggs for my new Pearl files. \o/

    And that's where my Infernape goes when I don't have the time to train him.

    When using to level up,they forget some awsome moves for suckish ones,though the eggs are great.

  • I hate the day care center because it takes the fun out of raising pokemon and it gets rid of a lot of good moves i only ever use the day care center for breeding so i gave it a no

  • Using them for the purpous of leveling is a flat no, but to get any good pokemon, they're absolutely essential for breeding. So I voted yay.

  • Yay, because you can get awesome Pokemon through breeding! Like a Chimchar with ThunderPunch! (I have a thousand of these.)

    I do like the Daycare, because they can make Pokemon Eggs for you. I don't like the fact they mess up the moves of your pokemon and that the woman never seems to be in a good mood, she always says "fine".

  • I get a ditto and just throw it in...

    I use it for breeding and do get annoyed if they delete my move but i reorder the moves so if the do forget one i can just make it remember it...

    Hey, wouldn't it be cool if in 5th gen or Platnium the daycare gave you a call for a new move?

  • The breeding advantage is obvious.

    I hear a lot of people say that its useless for levelling up - but I disagree. If you level up pokemon using daycare they recieve no EVs. This makes it much easier to calculate their IVs. If you try to calculat the IVs of anewly hatched level 1 or level 5 pokemon, its usually highly inaccurate because the stats are so low. Leave it in daycare, and its stats are so high that you can make a more accurate calculation. Thus, it makes it easier to find the highest IV pokemon for breeding purposes.

    I pretty much just go to the Daycare to sit around and catch butterflies and sell them to that friendly Seel down the road. He pays a pretty penny for each one, he does. Once he gave me a handful of rupees.
