5th Gen Quick Zoroark breeding question.

So I currently have a Zoroark (Male) and a Ninetales (Female) in the daycare in order to breed a Zorua with Extrasensory. My question is that, is there a lower percentage to get an egg carrying a Zorua than a Vulpix? After about 10 eggs all I've gotten is a Vulpix, and I'm wondering if I just need to press on, or if I'm missing something.

You always get the female breed. No ifs, ands, or buts. Same if you get a Rufflet and a Vullaby together, or their evolutions; you must use Ditto to breed a Rufflet. Only way to get a male-only breed. There are only two exceptions to this rule with the Nidoran and Volbeat/Illumise, I believe.

In that vein, get a Ditto and you'll breed a Zorua no problem.

Or I can trade you one of my bred Zoruas that knows a ton of moves already. There are females, just rare.

To add, for a Zorua to have Extrasensory as one of its moves, you must breed a male Vulpix/Ninetales with a female Zorua/Zoroark. As Cyclone pointed out, only the female breed is hatched, with a few exceptions. An alternative breeding pair in your case is Ditto + Zorua/Zoroark (male).

To help in case you didn't know you can easily find a Ditto in the Giant Chasm (Grass). Breed until you get a female Zorua and then breed for an extrasensory Zorua.

Those Dittos are also a pain in the butt to catch. If you have HeartGold or SoulSilver, you can catch a Lv.10 Ditto from Route 34 and import it from another system into Black/White. Those ones I found easier to catch. You can also visit the Quick Trade Thread and offer a trade for a Ditto.

The easiest way to catch them is send out a lillipup to make them transform into and then BAM throw a ball and it is easily caught!

So my problem is having a strong and rarely catchable Pokémon out? Interesting. That might be why the Repeat Balls never worked, and Quick Balls never got Ditto straight away for me. But after a Transform, I can just Repeat Ball it and problem solved. Even have a Pokémon strong against the one leading ready to switch to.

Yep. Ditto takes the catch rate of the poke it transforms into.

Please don't turn a quick question into a discussion ;( After the user replied saying they understood, there was no need to add more. Either way, Mephreyu, please use the Quick Questions sticky next time, okay? :3
