BREEDING RULES
Hello guys, yes we need rules to make sure we don't have a surpluss of babies everywhere sorry!
1. All breeding Laws of the DayCare couple still apply.
It takes two pokemon of the opposite genders to have eggs -- yes all pokemon start out as eggs. Unlike every other region, though, the egg doesn't always hatch into what it's mother or father was. If the Pokemon are the same exact species, then it has a 99% chance of being the same as them. However, if the only thing they share is the same egg group, it has a 45% chance of being the same species as it's mother, a 35% of being the same species as it's father, and a 20% chance of being a Pokemon that only shares one of the same Types of one of the parents and the egg group the Parents shared...
2. Each time a pair breeds the egg number will be 1-3.
Each time a pair breed you'll get to chose how many babies the pair has though the maximum they can have is 3 and the minimum is 0. Yes a breeding can fail -- it'd make for an interesting plot device after all. You get to chose and decide your fate here on Mochia Region.
3. Breeding limits: A pair can only breed once every realistic year.
What does this mean? If you have babies on January 7th you have to wait until that real dates rolls around again -- feel free to pm an admin if you'd like to request sooner for a plot but don't feel bad if we say no. We don't limit how many pokemon you can play nor do we limit the age you can play -- we just want to be realistic since most young in the wild spend more time with their mother than those born to a trainer.
4.Legendary breeding.
As of right now it's not going to be allowed, since no one can play a Legendary yet it's not that big of a deal but we'll edit this when actual Legendaries appear on site.
5. You must actually raise your young once they hatch.
I understand the want and need of playing an abandoned baby or having her separated as a baby and that's all fine and well if you make a random charrie for it but if you go through ALL the trouble of having babies in the first place we expect you to raise them in rp -- or at least 2/3 of them. You can give them up to others to rp or play them yourself but you have to raise them. Feel free to pm and admin if a plot does not allow this and we may make an exception -- the only reason this rule is in place is to discourage random breeding just for the sake of having an egg.
