Ok, so if you have a shiny pokemon, and you breed it, is the egg always shiny?
 
No, a Shiny Pokemon breeding does not yield a Shiny Pokemon Egg in return.

Next time, please use the simple questions thread at the top of the forum.
 
I believe in Gold and Silver it did increase the odds of hatching a shiny, but they were still slim, however this was fixed in all later games.
 
There is a method for always hatching an egg, but its extremely complex and requires lots of time. The odds of hatching a shiny are slightly increased if an international Pokemon is used (Has a Japanese name for English speakers or English for Japanese)
 
Guys, the answer has been given. I don't know why Sketch didn't close this when he posted, but whatever. Stop answering. The answer is no. End of story.
 
Are you fucking kidding me? So no one is really modding this forum? Chosen of Mana is never here, and Wiil just goes to the RMT section, so wtf?

it has to do with the IVs. it's 1/64 chance

it's 4x more likley to be shiny.
 
Breeding for a shiny Pokémon using Pokémon who were generated in games of different languages (that means whose eggs were created, not who were hatched; you can have a Budew whose name is in English and who was hatched in an English game, but if its egg was made in a Japanese one, it's a Japanese Budew) is the Masuda method.

Breeding shinies has no more of a chance, other than if you use the Masuda method, of causing a shiny baby outside of Gen II, due to the aforementioned IV thing.

However, there is a notable RNG exploit present in DPPt.

Anyway, as with everyone else's sentiment: FREAKING SIMPLE QUESTIONS THREAD, ALSO WE HAVE [bp=Main Page]A WIKI[/bp].
