Personalised Pokemon Egg
As most of you guys would know in the Anime, there is no generic Pokemon egg design, the eggs are designed to represent the Pokemon that awaits inside.
Now i have always thought that this would be a great little quirk that the games could implement. What do you guys think? Would you like this feature? Do you think it is a waste of time? It also just hit me that it would be great when you breed a bunch off egg and hatch the personality on the 2nd egg and put the rest in the box. Then a week later you have eggs in your box and have no idea what Pokemon they are this happens to me a lot. |
God yes. This'd be such an adorable feature! It would also help if you're breeding a lot of different mons and then forget what you were breeding. XD; However I'm not sure if there would be designs for everything, given that there is at least over 700 Pokemon and seeing them design a unique egg for everything, I... doubt. XD;
|
Haha, it would be very hard to make over 700 designs, but I would love it! It would make breeding way easier! This feature would be great!
|
When you think about it is 700 most Pokemon come from evolutionary families with the bulk of them being Pokemon part of a 3 stage evolutionary family then cut out legendary Pokemon the number would be pretty reduced.

I would wanna see this implemented, I can almost never remember what eggs are which if I leave em in the box for a long time.
|
As cools as it would be, it'd kinda wreak any mystery eggs and the PC's Egg Swaps.
|
Oh yes, definitely! They should have implemented different Egg designs since the release of Diamond/Pearl, but instead... they only included one variation of a different type of Egg, which was the Manaphy Egg.
What I would like to see... is that every single Pokémon that can be bread in Pokémon X and Y to have some Egg form that contains a design. Almost like a pre-evolution, except it has the coding that prevents it from battling and such. Ever since Egg designs were shown in the anime, it has made me hope for Egg designs to be implemented into a main Pokémon game, but has that day ever came? Nope, not at all. So I think it's about time this Generation has different Egg designs implemented into the game, so that most players will know what Pokémon will be bound to be hatching from that Egg, and not be a generic Egg appearance. In the instruction manual of Pokémon Gold/Silver, it shows two different designs of Eggs of an Elekid and Togepi, as part of an artwork that Ken Sugimori designed in the earlier days. Yeah, I think it's been way too long without many different Egg designs. xD |

I would love something like this to be done though. It's the little things that count, you know? But I also enjoy the mystery of sometimes not knowing what you're going to get out of that egg. If they can find a way to somehow create personalized eggs (perhaps off of a Pokémon type, rather than design), and still keep the mystery of what may hatch out of it, I'd like that. Then again, they only ever really need to do that for a mystery egg gifted to you by a stranger rather than for when you're actually breeding. The Manaphy egg is the only personalized Pokémon egg we've had, and I really liked how they did the design for that one. I think if they could implement simple designs that hint at what you're getting, would be cool. Definitely something where you can tell them apart though, because I myself have gotten confused by which Pokémon are in which eggs when I have too many of them stored in my PC boxes. Oops! |
This would actually be a pretty cool idea, and I don't know if 'It would be a lot of work' can be used as an argument against it (though I still think it's pretty unlikely).
As Polizard mentioned above, the 700-odd Pokedex consists of families of Pokemon for the most part, as well as non-breedable legendaries and so on, so that would only really mean they'd have to have a couple of egg designs. I read somewhere that the 3D Pokemon models in use are just taken from Pokédex 3D Pro- I then heard somewhere else that this wasn't true, but on closer inspection the models are the same, just coloured slightly differently in some cases. So I think that individualised Eggs would be entirely possible for Pokémon X and Y, but I think it's pretty unlikely, just because... Well, there's no real reason to, either. |
Yes, please. I breed over a dozen pokemon a day and using the Diamon thing in which you can see what nature the egg will have before it hatches, I get lots of discarded eggs. Then when I go back to hatch those, I have no idea what they are anymore.
That would end the suspicion everyone has when you give them an egg, but then again it would ruin the mystery egg give aways. |
Perhaps they could put a feature in which we can disquise the egg if we want to give it to another as a mystery egg like for the egg swaps (the one's in game with the machine and stuff) for example.

Imagine a remoraid hatching from a red egg with suckers. |
Yeah i'd love to see that put in. Im not a breeder but i have been wanting to be one since i first bred a rattata in the Gen 2 daycare... Anyways though, i dont think it will happen. It would require a ton of new designs for about 300+ families and also they would need a lot of variation in one sprite, also, the effect will have almost no implement on the games rating. I mean like, we can all hope and dream, but GF is still a company and they need a lot of money to make these games.
|
I'm a pokemon breeder, after i finished the main story of course, so i think that would be usefull.
|
I don´t think they will do Egg designs for so much Pokémon. What they could do is coloring the spots depending on the type of the Pokémon inside.

Yes, it's important to remember that Gamefreak is a company, but if it were true that EVERY LITTLE THING IS BASED OFF HOW MUCH MONEY GAMEFREAK CAN STEAL FROM US then our games would be far more unpolished. They can sell a lackluster product and still make money. Besides, you'd be surprised how much the little details can count in a game. |
This would be an interesting feature, but given the amount of work it would take I doubt it would actually be implemented. I could see GF doing a type egg thing though--you know, having an egg for every type mixture. Then you could at least have a better idea. I'm not a real breeder, but this would be a cool thing nonetheless.
The solution to keeping the mystery eggs a secret? Have a "mystery egg" sprite too. Maybe leave the original sprite. |
I thought maybe the reason they made the eggs uniform was so you could be surprised when someone gives you an egg midgame (like Happiny and Riolu in DPPt.)
It would be a cool feature to have custom eggs, but I doubt it will happen. |

I've ween these in the anime and I always thought why aren't they like this in the games! It would make it so mich essier to determine what is going to hatch which can become complicated when breedinng multiple Pokemon, plus it would look cute.
|
I support the idea of Pokemon eggs getting unique designs, but as mentioned it sounds a little difficult to manage designing 700 unique ones for different Pokemon XD;. But then it would be helpful if you've forgotten what sort of Pokemon you're breeding and it really adds a nice touch. However the only flaw is things like egg swapping in-game, is it spoils whats inside and I love having no knowledge until it hatches...so yeah that'd probably be the only flaw D:.

Sites like Global Pokedex Plus managed to pull this off, by having eggs designed after the Pokemon it contains. I would like to see personalized eggs similar to what they have there seen in-game but given we're going to have around 700+ Pokemon, it's going to be a bit tricky.
At least it would help us be able to tell what Pokemon's inside. ~ Hikari |
This would be sooo cute. I'd love if they implemented this. Seeing the eggs now make me think I'm getting Yoshi and I get SO HAPPY, but it hatches and it's not Yoshi...and that's sad.
