TC's Speed Breeding Challenge!

[Peter Quill]

Spoiler:

This was more painful than the Ekans one. XD

 

[Cyclone]

I finally saw the first Lombre horde.

4/5 had Rain Dish.

1/5 had Swift Swim.

Kill me now.

EDIT: Swift Swim Poliwag - confirmed sighting. Now I can stop that one.

Round 3!

Pokémon: Relicanth
Nature: Quiet
Ability: Rock Head
Poké Ball Premier Ball
Egg moves: Amnesia, Brine​

 

[Cyclone]

Ugh...I've never caught the ideal mate here!

Oh great. 87.5% male. Here goes 78 Eggs for 3 females again.

EDIT 1: After a tactics change, decided to use the long female rate to buy time leveling the ideal mate. The Eggs are entirely based on luck. I'm popping Eggs now.

EDIT 2: Just got my Quiet Female. Time to level up!

EDIT 3: Wailmer learned Brine just now.

EDIT 4: In the daycare, breeding. Apparently MIAU just got it ahead of me.

Got it! Pics in spoiler :)

Here's my entry for this Round!
It's 2 AM here atm. Time for me to sleep xD

Bonus Round!

Pokémon: Starly
Ability: Reckless (HA)
Poké Ball: Great Ball​

 

[Cyclone]

This one seems easier. Be right back.

EDIT: 15 minutes later, not a single Starly horde yet. There are worse than the breeding challenges...

(And yes, I'm using Sweet Scent.)

EDIT: Saw a horde right after that edit. Didn't have the right subject. More searching.

 

[Cyclone]

Posting as a new post. Caught it!

My second Starly horde was enough. That alone took nearly an hour to confirm and capture.

UPDATE! I caught the Lombre from yesterday. The third Lombre horde had it, but it took me a solid two hours (save a few minutes) to find that horde. I only saw at most two hordes yesterday with no winner. Here he is!

Six for six. What else ya got? :)

 

[Sushimmi]

I'm terribly late, but idc! I mean, it just bumps the thread up again.

Spoiler:

Woah that's gigantic! Can you size it down? Also, I have never been so so mad at a silly pokemon before. I give up on the Flabebe

Really? That was easy. Breed a male Skitty with the Egg Moves with a blue Flabébé (search the blue flowers) caught in the correct ball. Only concern is nature, and you can use a Ditto or a compatible male mate with the ability and Everstone it on. Finito.

EDIT: I've taken on a new challenge. I just got Manectric to Lv.70. Before the day (and GT11) ends, I'm going to get that Electric Terrain move onto Helioptile. After that, I can eventually turn it into a 5IV shop-worthy addition. (I say "day" because I'm being periodically called away today. Also, I have my mid-step of Mareep, which I'll train in a bit so it doesn't over-write the move.)

I just wanted to say, I had a lot of fun with these challenges! I'm always out of ideas for what to breed next, so I figured I'd just join so I could breed some interesting Pokemon. But you guys seriously made this so challenging, with the crazy gender ratios, the monstrous hatch times, the limited options for parents, specific balls even. I was very surprised with how much I enjoyed the whole thing. Actually, checking this thread was the first thing I did as soon as I got home from work, 12PM EDT is 7PM where I live, that's about the time I usually get home. I regret not being able to do any of the bonus rounds (that were usually posted during the night for me, haha), but I'm pretty swamped in the evenings during workdays, so I figured I'd stick to the normal rounds.

So basically, thank you for making this so very enjoyable, the challenges were spot-on and you this whole thing was just an amazing ride! Also, congratulations to everybody who reached the target Pokemon, great job you guys!

 

[Peter Quill]

I really enjoyed doing these challenges. I haven't really been playing with my 3DS recently, so this really added to my game time. I only started to be really interested in breeding Pokemon this Generation because of the changes to the mechanics that has really improved the experience. Thanks to the challenges, I was also able to backtrack a bit and catch Pokemon I never bothered to catch (I kinda rushed a bit with the games, I was actually surprised that some of the Pokemon are in the games lol).

Thank you for making this fun and enjoyable! Congratulations to everyone who have finished the rounds. It's really been fun doing this with y'all ^_^

 

[Cyclone]

Well, I wanted to post this before the GC11 ends in about 10 minutes.

Remember that Dusk Ball Helioptile? I've been working on that breeding all day. And, well, I have a beauty to show off:

The only thing missing to make that unique is Solar Power.

And Shininess.

But I'm happy with that.

 

[Omicron]

Thanks to everyone that participated! We couldn't have run it without your participation.

I'm really glad all of you enjoyed the challenge, that was the whole purpose of it! Expect the emblems to be handed out at a later date.

As of this post, TC's Speed Breeding Challenge has officially ended.
