In the interest of expediency, I intend to make this advertisement a concise one. Please forgive the brevity; I've merely learned through considerable experience that in situations like this, a simple solution is generally the best.

I've found myself once again in possession of a fair number of eggs. I'll be attaching a list of their types at the end of this post; please consider adopting one, as I would highly prefer to find good homes for them, and regrettably haven't the capacity to keep them myself.

Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

In my experience, Pokemon eggs are all of a roughly uniform size; it's the color and accoutrements of the shell that tend to provide the variance.

At least those match the creature inside most of the time. It give you an idea of what you'll get.

Assuming you're at least somewhat familiar with what a given species' egg looks like, yes.

Is there a dictionary of eggs somewhere? It'd be useful to breeders, and probably everyone else too.

[usedlaserbeam]

Not that I'm aware of, though if there is, I'd expect it to be in the Dex. Mostly I've just become accustomed to the eggs that I'm likely to encounter, given the roster I have and their...proclivities.

At least that makes them a little predictable? You could be stuck never knowing what you'd get with each batch.

Well, I'd always have at least some idea, considering I couldn't very well have an egg of a species I'm not actually in possession of already. And from there I could extrapolate based on the likely suspects, given what I know about my roster's breeding habits.

But yes, it'd be considerably more complicated if they all looked the same, I agree.

Do they usually keep to the same partners? I mean, monogamous animals aren't exactly the majority, but most Pokémon do act most like people would.

Again, it varies. I have a Dragonair and an Octillery that seem strikingly committed to each other; others are considerably more amenable to a variety of partners.

An octopus and a dragon. Really. That's a surprising match.

[usedlaserbeam]

Do you think so? As best I can tell, it has something to do with the tentacles.

My Dragonair seems content enough with her choice, however; I have a Milotic that has tried — frequently — to woo her, and yet she seems stubbornly disinclined to tolerate even the slightest hint of disparaging opinion toward her chosen beloved.

Which is largely how I came into the possession of the Milotic in the first place, admittedly.

[captainash]

That sort of faithfulness is admirable, ven if I'm not sure tentacle are a stable base for a relationship. Did your Milotic ever find someone else?

[text]

[usedlaserbeam]

Another Milotic, eventually. That one was an inheritance from an acquaintance who left.

Guess that means it's not lonely even with its original trainer gone. That's good.
