How long does it take for two pikachus, one holding a light ball, to produce an egg?, if anyone can help, its been almost a day since I deposited them in the Day Care Center. ThAnK yOu!!!!!!!!11
 
its walking time not atual time.

just get on your bike and ride around until you see the man come out of that wall thing.
 
It shouldn't take too long. Just ride around until the old man comes out ^_^
 
No, it´s walking.
IIRC depending on what oldman is saying, each 255 steps you do, you have 25% or 50% or 75% chance to get one egg.

They don´t seem to like each other too much: 25%
(something that I forgot): 50%
(Insert that thing I forgot) very well: 75%

I waited a day until they had the first egg -- now every time I walk by (going around in a circle from Lilycove to Mauville because I'm trying to hatch another egg) he's out there with another egg. So I guess once they get started they are very prolific. :172bros:

Anyone else use the straight line mentioned by me above?

I did when I was looking for my adamant skarmory and my volt tackle pichu.
The messages are something like:
"They don't like each other much."
"They are friendly towards each other" (or something to that nature)
"They like each other a lot" (or something to that nature)
These three messages will always get you an egg eventually, although, as you may have guessed, the first one will take longer, and the third will be quickest.
Least compatible:
Pokemon are of different species and were caught by the same trainer.
Next comes:
Different trainers or same species
And the best:
Different trainers, same species.
If you get the message, "The two prefer to play with other pokemon than with each other", they will NEVER NEVER NEVER make an egg. This happens when they either arent compatible species or are related.
hope this helps and good luck!

Since you are trying to get a Pichu from two Pikachus, it won't take too long.

For me sometimes it takes a really short time. When I tried getting the Volt Tackle Pichu it toke only entrance to Mawile City back to Day Care and here we go.

But for example just now I'm trying to get Admant Swablu. I have my male Altaria and Ditto in the Day Care and it toke about 1 or 2 days to get one egg!

So sometimes, and some of you are going to disagree with me, it can also be depending little bit on luck, or this presentange thing Volteon mentioned.

um i would basically start out in newbark and use the shortcuts to end up in muavill (and dont use the surfing one from odale to slate port) and there should be an egg it ALWAYS works for me and i consider myself a breeding master
 
Isn't there a variable involved, too? Like volteon said, even if you have the best conditions, that doesn't guarantee an egg really really fast. So you may just have incredibly baaad luck.
 
Here is a very quick way to breed them.

1. Get a Mach Bike.
2. Deposit the two Pokemon in the Day Care.
3. Go back and forth over and over with the Mach Bike.
4. Do this until the Day Care Man goes forward from his usual place.
5. Talk to him and get and egg.

This way, it doesn't even matter how long it'll take because it goes by quickly no matter what.

I never got a hint of that. All along I could've ran around in circles like a small child outside the Day Care instead of waiting for an egg standing there. ;>>
