i agree with mr_dark if you just made it were you could wander around and ramdomly find them some people would keep doing this and then the other events/contest would slowly get smaller and smaller.

This doesn't have to do much with thread were on, but I don't want to make a new thread because I'm still a noob.
I think Pokemon bred with Ditto should have a slightly less chance (Not to make people too mad) of it being successful/shiny. Pokemon bred with their same type of species should have a higher chance of succeeding/ being shiny.
Any thoughts? Sorry for stealing your thread.

Maybe go along with what people have said above me, since there would be events for eggs, have the few eggs you find in the wild have a very low chance of actually hatching (in other words be empty shells, and of course I am talking about when the event is not in effect) so you can have a small chance to find an egg, and a very small chance for it to actually hatch for you.

Awesome idea, I love it. Some really good suggestions being made too-- it's always great to see a good idea grow like this :)
I think that personally the most effective and exciting way to look at implementing this would be:
- Have it as a constant chance (instead of a once-per-month event), but make the probability of actually encountering an egg at all very slim (say... 0.05% maybe?). I'm not a mathematician so I can't really suggest a solid percentage chance based on probability calculations or anything like that, but obviously if there is ALWAYS the chance of encountering an egg it will need to be a very small chance. But the simple fact that there is ALWAYS that chance can make the feel of the entire game much more exciting.
- Having said that, it would definitely be awesome to have some added features to this around Easter time. Possibly something like: Eggs are much easier to find during the Easter event?
- I do like the idea of each egg having a chance that it will be empty (i.e: it will 'hatch' with nothing inside of it). However, if that chance is too great (as possibly suggested by darion101 above), the eggs could potentially just become a nuisance to players. If there's more than a 50% chance that your egg will be empty, would you waste time hatching it? Love to hear everyone else's thoughts on this, but I would think that about a 10% chance of an egg being empty is a pretty reasonable number.
- If the probabilities of finding an egg, and that egg actually containing a pokemon are figured out to a reasonable level (i.e: Only 1 in every 10,000 encounters worldwide involves an egg) then it will remain a very rare treat. But obviously in online games such as this, rare things are highly sought after, and players will inevitably try to cheat or abuse the system to get them. I'm not sure if completely preventing players from trading these egg pokemon would be a good solution, because as long as the gameworld isn't flooded with them they will be valuable-- But their value would be completely taken away (from a trading/selling point of view) if you are unable to trade/sell the pokemon. If only the hatched pokemon themselves can be traded/sold, and the eggs are unable to be traded/sold, that would help the situation I think.
Sure, there will still be people who spend hours upon hours trying to find eggs, and then hatching eggs simply to sell them, but if you think about it they won't be gaining an unfair advantage (as long as the probability of finding these eggs is low enough but still reasonable) and also I'm sure if the pokemon universe was real there would be people who devoted their time to doing exactly that (something like an Egg Dealer).
Any thoughts? :)

That sounds okay for me. The percentages of encounterance with an egg might be raised to 1% though, 0.01% seems way too low for me. The 5% probability of having a lucky egg on Chanseys already was annoying ::)
I think that if it is implemented, then the egg should be from level 1, like in DPPt, HGSS.

I think that lowering the probability of passing on good IVs could be reduced instead. IMO, the chance for a shiny pokemon is already very low. I only got one shiny through eggs, a shiny Meditite...
