How do you get eggs from the daycare center in Pokemon Diamond?

Answer 1

Breed 2 Pokemon Of The Same Kind There!

AnswerTo receive Pokemon eggs from the Daycare, you must leave two compatible Pokemon in their care and take a certain number of steps. Contrary to beleif, Pokemon who can be bred do not need to be of the same species. A Pikachu can breed with a Cherrim to produce an offspring Pichu (or Cherubi) just as it can breed with another Pikachu. This is because both Pokemon belong to the same egg group and Pokemon within the same egg group can breed with others to produce the baby Pokemon which is the species of the mother Pokemon. There is always the possibility of using a Ditto with the Pokemon you want to breed.

Of course, these egg group Pokemon must like each other to produce an egg. You can check if these Pokemon like each other by speaking with the Daycare man, or by using the Compatability Checker in your Poketech.

The Pokemon you leave in Daycare are subject to the following breeding conditions:

- One Pokemon must be male and the other female OR

- A Pokemon paired with Ditto must be of a species other than Ditto (genderless Pokemon can breed with Ditto);

- No legendary Pokemon can breed (except for Manaphy);

- Baby Pokemon cannot breed;

- Basic Pokemon cannot breed with their evolved forms (Pikachu cannot breed with Raichu).
