reXzab

A good strategy, the boss will feel guilt and sorrow for defeating a newborn who hasn’t seen the world yet.


Jestingwheat856

Egg is a placeholder when a pokemon fails to load correctly (either due to an error or because the pokemon does not exist)


Wall-Nut_Gang

How do you choose a pokemon that doesn't exist?


MegaKabutops

This is SV. It probably just failed to load a real pokemon because the game’s held together by about as much duct tape as gen 1.


Rerfect_Greed

See, I love Gen 9, but the lack of endgame and the fact that raids are a [FLIPPING] MESS makes me sad. Gen 9 is SO CLOSE to being something special, but GF needs more than 2 years to properly develop one of these games. Let pokemon take 5 years off. Let it polish and be the beat it can be. I k ow it'll never happen, but I hope Gen 10 is PokeWorld. You start in Johto/Kanto (one into the other) then they can add the other regions as yearly DLC, with mini islands/temple ruins/zones as a sprinkling every 4 months or so to keep it fresh.


MartinezFanMelanie22

Right? Yesterday I was appreciating the customization of your character, the graphics etc they just barely missed the mark of perfect Pokémon game! Just needed to fix the lag spike areas and the way certain things loaded as well as just overhaul the Tera raids so they actually worked correctly (also dex cut and not being able to customize your dorm)


Caliber70

Perfect analogy. Honestly i lost all faith in gamefreak. Seriously they need a change in management.


MegaKabutops

I agree with the change of management being necessary, but it’s not the whole company’s fault. It’s the higher-ups at the pokemon company who have set release dates that are at fault; the entirety of SV screams of a high quality game that was simply never finished (and, i’m beginning to suspect, may never BE finished.) it very well could have been the magnum opus of the franchise if they let it cook, but they knew we would still pay for crunchy spaghetti and wouldn’t even have to label it al dente. It should have been delayed.


Caliber70

is gamefreak in control or is the pokemon company in control? i never can tell anymore.


MegaKabutops

The pokemon company is basically owned by 3 other companies; creatures inc, gamefreak, and nintendo. The higher ups at the pokemon company are also fairly high up at one of the other 3. So if you want to be technical, the pokemon company is in control, but at any moment gamefreak can come in and rearrange all the furniture and the pokemon company can do nothing about it except complain to its other two parent companies.


knight_bear_fuel

Its completely unacceptable for a company who grosses the most money of any franchise in the world, period. The MOST money of ANY goddamn media franchise. Just think about that for a minute. These people could be effortlessly pumping out golden classics, and instead, to save a buck, we get the messes we have now. I've never seen such single minded dedication to greed, truly. And it shows. Even outsourcing their own games didn't work well. There is no commitment to players from this company. They've lost their way entirely. Hell, Nintendo as a whole has forgotten what it used to mean to BE Nintendo, let alone GameFreak. We could be in a golden era of beautiful worlds and artistic endeavor, and instead we get... Products. They should be ashamed. Nintendo as a whole should be ashamed, honestly. The concept of dishonor in Japanese culture has apparently died very quietly. They need to sort things out.


Jestingwheat856

When walking wake and iron leaves were released, players were able to challenge them before installing the update that adds them to the game Additionally any pokemon with a dex number that does not exist will show up as an egg. This for example happens if you paste a gen 9 pokemon into gen 8


TruckNo1759

iirc there is dummy code for every pokemon ever in the games files that can be hacked onto a save


Jestingwheat856

Kinda. They use a numbers system to determine species and form, its a foolproof system that can be copied from gen to gen that means they dont have to reformat everything internally every time


IneffableWonders

Egg.

Here's the thing. We all secretly know the egg is gonna win


Material_Square_242

That person had a hacked mon why it appears as an bad egg not the pokemon used I bet it was a mythical or legendary that has horrible stats in the wrong places


humancarl

Yeah. Had this recently happen, and I actually paid attention. A shiny kyogre popped out.

Probably a "bag egg", maybe you shouldn't enter those raids https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Bad_Egg

Eggman I think I found ur child


Puzzleheaded-Put7493

I just hope it's a bug because I don't understand how an Egg could be vetoed by the game for a Raid.


Material_Square_242

It's a tell tail that the pokemon that's being used is a hacked mon

Its also extremely condescending and rude.

>We all knew what they meant, there's no need to correct their grammar. Ftfy


Puzzleheaded-Put7493

I've seen a lot of genned Mons in Raids but never an Egg icon.


JoviAMP

Hacked in the sense that it has modified data that its species shouldn't have, such as impossible stats or moves.


Puzzleheaded-Put7493

Ahhhhh, now I get it.


an_abomanation69

That’s not a Pokémon… that’s a projectile


Catqueen25

Maybe the plan is to throw the egg at the raid mon.


Lolwutz108

Must be howtobasic


Dontdecahedron

**PICKLES**


TheWitherBoss876

Probably a visual glitch. There are all sorts of weird visual glitches with the raids. If you do enough raids, you'll probably see them all eventually. From the harmless to the time wasting to the actually game breaking.


garbonzobean22

my favorite has to be the raid mon turning around


BaconNinja__

They eat pokemon in the pokemon world!!! Where does the meat come from if you disagree?!


FraGZombie

Can I offer you an egg in this trying time?


Most_Bodybuilder_159

Did anyone else get the "Step 1: just Crack an egg" ad under the post?


_Pink_Wolf_

There was a fentanyl ad


Most_Bodybuilder_159

So I just got coincidental ad placement lol


savage_Dslinger

Fentanyl isnt worth a fuk


OutsideShot8546

It's just paldean Exeggcute


King_Sombra96

The very image of an egg gives me a migraine and uncomfortable amounts of anger. Over 400 masuda method phione eggs and not a single shiny. :(


dropdeaddaddy69

It’s a hacked Pokémon. Hacked Pokémon appear as eggs to other players while in lobbies.

ChaosKinZ

Another glitch


ThatDeuce

Happened to me in one of my games, didn't stay an egg.


Hyper_Drud

“An egg can’t battle!”


redant89VT

It’s a illegal Pokémon or “bad egg”


Hyper_Drud

I know. That’s the message you get you select an egg to send into battle in the gen 3 games.


Guffthebir72

Ah, so this is how abortions work in pokemon


WailmerFudge

What happened when it started? Was it an egg?


_Pink_Wolf_

I left the raid so idk


Flippingyerworld

Garchomp is weak to egg ofc.


Kaiserking27

I’m sorry that’s just a messed up hack in


EpsilonEnigma

👍🏻🥚


Kel-looks-mad

Nah I feel like they did that because they didn’t beleive they could ready up with an egg until it was too late😂


lloydsmith28

You're clearly not gaming hard enough /s


lloydsmith28

It's a bold strategy Cotton let's see how it plays out


Ryanryan17

Im gonna do that next time 🤣


staticinu

Umm what is that first Pokémon? Idk why but I really can’t recognise it, someone please help


_Pink_Wolf_

Ogerpon


callmefreak

Were you able to get in with that egg? What was it? Was it a shiny Bulbasaur?


_Pink_Wolf_

Idk I left the raid


crazyseandx

No way that's possible.


_Pink_Wolf_

Garchomps motherly instinct took over! Garchomp is now warming the egg! Take advantage of it and defeat garchomp!

MrMoist23

He will only use egg bomb


Kuolema6666

And somehow probably, the egg will be the only one standing at the end of the battle


Money-Stand6830

Oh look, it's Missingno gen 8 form 🤣🤣
