How to Get 6 IV Eggs

To get 6 IV eggs, you need to breed Pokémon with high IVs (Individual Values) together, using a process that involves passing down IVs from parents to offspring, and the Destiny Knot item plays a crucial role in this process by allowing parents to pass down five of their IVs to their child. Breeding a 6IV Pokémon with another 6IV Pokémon will always result in 5IV offspring, with the sixth IV having a 1 in 32 chance of being a 31, making the likelihood of getting a 6IV Pokémon challenging but achievable with persistence and the right strategy.

Understanding the Breeding Process

Breeding Basics

The process of breeding Pokémon to get 6 IV eggs involves several steps, starting with obtaining Pokémon with high IVs, which can be achieved through various means such as catching them in Tera Raid battles or trading with other players.

FAQs

  1. Can you guarantee 6 IV? No, you cannot guarantee getting a 6IV Pokémon, but using the Destiny Knot increases the chances by allowing parents to pass down five of their IVs to their offspring, with the sixth IV being random.

  2. How do you breed 6 IV Pokémon? To breed 6IV Pokémon, start by breeding a 3IV Pokémon with a Ditto until you get a 4IV egg, then repeat the process with a 4IV Pokémon and a Ditto until you get a 6IV egg.

  3. What is a 6IV Pokémon? A 6IV Pokémon is one that has the maximum 31 IVs in all six of its stats: HP, Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed.

  4. Can you breed 2 Dittos? No, Ditto cannot breed with other Dittos because they are part of the Ditto Egg Group, which cannot breed with each other.

  5. Why is 6 IV Ditto important? A 6IV Ditto significantly speeds up the process of getting 5-6IV offspring and is invaluable for breeding due to its ability to breed with almost any Pokémon and pass on its Nature and some IVs.

  6. How do you get 6 IV in Pokémon Violet? The best opportunity to get a 6IV Ditto comes from six-star Tera Raid battles, which can be unlocked in the Pokémon Scarlet & Violet post-game, where Pokémon caught in these raids are guaranteed to have five perfect IVs.

  7. How rare are 6 IVs? The chance of getting 6IVs is the chance of getting 5IVs via the Destiny Knot multiplied by the chance of randoming 31 in the sixth IV (1/32).

  8. Can you breed Eternatus? No, Eternatus, being a Legendary Pokémon, cannot breed, as Legendary and Mythical Pokémon (except Manaphy) are unable to breed.

  9. Can Mew and Ditto make an egg? No, Mew is in the Undiscovered Egg Group and cannot breed, even with Ditto.

  10. Can you breed Zapdos with Ditto? No, Zapdos, being a Legendary Pokémon, falls under the Undiscovered category and cannot breed with any Pokémon, including Ditto.

  11. How do I know if my Ditto is 6 IV? To check if your Ditto is 6IV, use the Judge feature in your Pokémon box after catching it from a Tera Raid.

  12. Is there a Ditto Vmax? Yes, there is a Shiny Ditto VMAX, which was part of the Shining Fates: Shiny Vault subset, offering a chance to collect Shiny versions of Ditto.

  13. What are the odds of getting a 6 IV Pokémon in the wild? The probability that a Pokémon in the wild has all its 6IVs not 31 is (31/32)^6, making it highly unlikely to find a 6IV Pokémon in the wild.

  14. Is a 6 IV Pokémon worth it? 6IVs are necessary for Pokémon that use both physical and special attacks, but many Pokémon can be very usable with 5IVs or even 4IVs, especially in certain strategies like Gyro Ball or Trick Room.

  15. How rare is a normal Ditto? Ditto has a relatively low encounter rate, making it somewhat rare to encounter in the wild, with only a 3% encounter rate.
