Egg

Egg is a generic placeholder term often used in the Pokémon series to describe Pokémon Eggs, which trainers receive after breeding two compatible Pokémon at a Day Care Center or Nursery. These Eggs will eventually hatch into Pokémon after the trainer takes a certain number of steps. Interestingly, the specific number of steps required for an Egg to hatch varies depending on the species of Pokémon inside the Egg.

Breeding Pokémon has several important functions in the games:

1. Inheriting Moves: Breeding allows Pokémon to inherit certain moves from their parents that they might not learn through leveling up. These moves are known as Egg Moves.

2. IVs: Breeding can also be used to pass down favorable IVs (Individual Values) to offspring, which is crucial for creating competitively viable Pokémon with optimal stats.

3. Hidden Abilities: Sometimes, breeding will result in Pokémon that have hidden abilities, which are abilities not normally encountered in the wild.

4. Shiny Pokémon
