Finding a Pokemon Egg

Just a simple question.

I was just wondering if a single profile character could happen upon an egg, and then turn into a duel character later on when it hatched?

I've seen a couple of characters that have eggs to begin with, and I've seen one character who has stumbled upon a egg in the RP and became dual characters. So I'm pretty sure that the answer is a yes, but I'd wait for an admin for confirmation. ;P

Yup this is possible.

I have a follow up question, and one that I have been wondering for a while now.

First, there are many couples poppig up withing the RP. Expected, since the extreme circumstances of the world's state pushes them to be together, but can they have eggs? Like, couples of those that can breed. I have a proposition for this- what if pokemon did not do the nasty to conceive eggs? What if it was actually just the strong feelings of love along with being near to the pokemon they love?

Also, if a pokemon had multiple eggs this way, would it be possible to give the hatched eggs to people on the team with the parents that wanted one? This would make duel characters.

Sorry for the lengthy questions ^^;

Lol, do the nasty.
Nice way of putting it.

Yes, pokemon couples can have eggs if they are compatible, but this must be canon.
As for making it work in RP with our non-sexual-explicit rule, you can merely suggest it or even have the female miraculously lay an egg if its' been with another for awhile, as you suggest.
It's a matter of preference, I won't inhibit those who want to get a little more romantic, lol, as long as it doesn't get explicit.

And as for the eggs, it's entirely possible. Whoever wants to make the profiles is free to do so- whether the receiver or the characters' mother, it's up to the members.
Lineage is something that can be noted in profiles as well.

(Pokemon breeding is weird a best. Mammals can't lay eggs, yet all pokemon have eggs. >< Not to mention alot of other contradictions)

I love you Suicune ;w; Thank you<333

Hmm, perhaps I should note that it should be agreed upon by both parties.
You are using the other memebrs character somehow.

Understood. ^^

oh i got it! mabye all pokemon are like Platypus and Echidna, part of the order, Monotremes which means mammals that lay eggs, heres a link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotremata

Well, not all pokemon are mammalian. Some are reptilian and aquatic, which is fine for eggs, but the ghosts and inanimate objects like Magnemite or Porygon also lay eggs, and we just don't know why, lol. Pokemon are just weird. XD

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......... oh i got it it's NINTENDO LOGIC!!

XD
Nice Shadowhope<3

thanks!

I have a question that goes with this.
If a pokemon with the infection lays an egg, is the baby already infected or undead?

Undead pokemon cannot breed, as they are dead. But as far as infected... I'm not sure.

well if the virus(the infection) is able to be passed on with DNA then i bet it would be infected.

If it were possible, then depending on the species type (fire, for instance) the egg might not survive until hatching. It would just die.

Also, the egg would have to be conceived right after the parent was infected.

- the virus is contagious within the first two weeks of initial infection. After that, it is no longer able to spread, but still keeps control of the host.

Straight out of our Rules of the Epidemic Universe.

so that means it would probably be very very very rare due to the limited amount of time the virus has left being contagious. hmmmm wonder if it would develop an immunity to the infection if it hatched...... hmmmmm

Considering the gestation time for Pokemon to be considered at about 6 weeks on average, and just to keep from messy inconsistencies, I would hold that no infected fetus would survive the process. Just about everything can drastically alter a child, cause malformations and abnormalities. The virus is too harsh for such a young host, and would kill it.

That's my vote.
