Simple Breeding Chains (R/S/E/FR/LG)

by Toothache

I'll bet some of you noticed in my Egg Moves list that some moves were mentioned as 'chain' being the father... well, that's because it takes multiple breeding events to get the move from someone who learns it naturally, to those who can learn it via egg moves.

Let's take an example - say you want to get Hypnosis onto a Milotic. The full breeding chain goes like this:

Stage 1 - male Spinda (Hypnosis) + female Psyduck/Golduck => male Psyduck (Hypnosis)
Stage 2 - male Psyduck/Golduck (Hypnosis) + female Feebas/Milotic = Feebas (Hypnosis)

This can be simplified to

Feebas/Milotic
Hypnosis: Spinda -> Psyduck -> Feebas

Remember that only males pass on moves, so if you hatch a female in the middle of a chain, you will need to breed again until you get a male.

Anyway, here's a list of the breeding chains for all Pokemon:
