4th Gen Daycare

how do i get my pokemon in the daycare to like each other because i want to breed my jinx with a pokemon but it says they dont play together how do i get them to like eachother?

It has to be with another jynx and it has to be opposite sexes. Even then theres only a chance they'll like each other.

Are you sure you have 1 male and 1 female? Did you make sure that both parents are in compatible egg groups?

 

[Eliminator Jr.]

Jynx is always female, so you can't breed a Jynx with another Jynx. In order to breed, you'll have to have your female Jynx in the daycare with a male Pokémon from this egg group (in other words, like a male Abra or male Machoke or something like that). Leave them alone for a while and you'll probably get an egg.

Oh yeah, you could always just breed your Jynx with a Ditto if you have one.

 

[Laharl]

so ditto or abra i have both? im using abra and it says they dont like each other

tHEN DON'T USE THE ABRA. ONLY BREEDS IF THEY AT LEAST SEEM TO GET ALONG. [Sorry for caps i was halfway through writing that and i didnt feel like erasing.] Oh. and Ditto would prolly work.

 

[Laharl]

my jinx hates ditto as well!

 

[dragon0fangz]

be patient. it can take up to 2 days. sorry, but waiting is the right choice.

Your Jynx is antisocial. SRS

 

[PlatinumDude]

The reason why you're experiencing that problem is because the Pokemon you're breeding may have the same ID numbers. If the Pokemon you're breeding have different ID numbers, the chances of you getting a Pokemon egg is higher. So that means you'll have to trade with someone for an appropriate partner for Jynx.

ive been waiting for my mew to mate with my ditto >8C

^^ Legendaries cant breed.

As for the OP, Pokémon will produce eggs whether they like eachother or not. It just takes time

 

[Laharl]

i got a alakazam (to borrow) from my brother he owns heart gold and it says they play with other pokemon but not each other so how long would i have to wait?
the ids are now different

 

[Ryu-kun]

^^ 3 to 5 hundred steps should do
Just bike around Goldenrod a little

 

[Gardenia101]

lol when I'm putting together eggs I just go in and out of the department store until I had done it about ten times. Then that's when I go over and get my egg ^^

False. If it says that the two Pokemon prefer to play with others and not each other, they will never produce an egg.

 

[Ryu-kun]

Oh yeah... Sorry, that means that they are in a different egg group with each other or are of the same gender... Whoops :P

 

[bobandbill]

Let's clear things up, as I see a lot of different answers.

Pokemon will only not breed if the message says they prefer the company of other pokemon or something along those lines which means thy're the same gender (lol) or in different egg groups. Any other message means they will breed - but the more positive the message, the better the chance you will get one sooner rather than later.

An egg can be produced every 256 steps taken, and the chance rate for an egg to be made depends on the messages as follows:

- 'The two don't seem to like each other - ~ 20% chance they make an egg every 256 steps: different species, same ID number.
- 'The two seem to get along' - ~ 50% chance they make an egg every 256 steps: same species and same id number, or diff. species, diff. id number.
- 'The two seem to get along very well ' - ~ 70% chance they make an egg every 256 steps: same species, different id number.

That's assuming they are in the same egg group though. Anyways that means with breeding jynx you can never get better than a 50% rate as they're always female and cannot hence breed with themselves.
