Tell him to use the Master Ball V2.0 next time.

There's a way to test. Equip an everstone to one of your pokemon. If the nature of that pokemon DOES NOT carry over to the child, then the MM is in effect.

I got a shiny charmander this way! It happened quite quick for me, no more than 15 eggs. I got a Japanese charizard through a trade. Just wanted to breed some for wonder trading, suddenly one of them had a ★ next to it.

I'd assume it shows when it hatches, but I wouldn't know hah

It will be it's different color when it hatches, but since Shiny Charmander is a similar shade you might want to check as well. I've been using MM the last couple of days, and so far I've managed to get a Shiny Fennekin after 4 eggs, a Shiny Ralts after 52 eggs, and a Shiny Vulpix after 7 eggs.

I don't have the answer to your question but I do have an anecdote: When I interviewed matsuda, he told me that not only was the matsuda method his favorite myth (not sure why he called it myth), but that he was very flattered that it's called that.

It just has to be two foreign Pokemon. It doesn't matter if your Ditto is Korean, your Charizard is French, Spanish, etc. Just make sure both of them aren't from the same country and you're good. I hatched over 1200 eggs before I took a break on the MM breeding though...

The key element is having two Pokemon from different countries. So yes, Japanese Charizard and NA Ditto should work, but Japanese Charizard and Japanese Ditto won't.

It works as long as one of the parents is foreign. Have fun though, I tried MMing a shiny Ralts and gave up after 450 eggs

The current combination you have is perfect. You want them to be from different regions.

Yes.

I want to see a shin chan version

Grandma is going to get the kid what they want. I doubt they're going to look at the price and think that's too much and get the kid something else. If that's the case then it looks like the Wii U will be the console this Christmas.

I think grandma is much more likely going to see the $500 price tag and say why buy this doohickey when that doohickey is $100 cheaper and does the same thing, and then she's gonna buy the ps4.

great, thanks for making me cry mid-lecture....

Its like that episode of Futurama with Fry's dog. Damn that episode

I'm going to be breeding Froakie eggs here in a day or two along with Eevees, so you can add me if you like: 2681-0077-5206

well given that the guys oer there may have played pokemon to the extent that they have the breeding section OR pull up old verisons of pokemon charmander to give to anyone ^_^ its quite possible

You get into the "You are not stylish enough" shop by becoming the Champion.
Beating the Elite 4 apparently makes you "Stylish" :/

Also the clothes in there are super expensive, like 100000 each.

Screw that fashion shop! Not stylish enough my enormous Pokeballs!
