Uh... the egg would break? Unless the mother targets and sends the unwanted egg on grass which will cushion the fall. :-\
But if the mother didn't care about the egg, which she does because she's dropping it, she wouldn't bother to aim it.

Exactly my point. So, I don't think that we should let the eggs "fall down from the sky".
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

This is a great idea! I especially the different types of nests. Like a tunnel could be found using rock smash,like, you've uncovered a tunnel under the rock! Will you take the eggs? And if you say yes, there's a 50% (maybe more. maybe less, you decide) of the mother/father being there. "Oh no! Papa Ryhorn is angry!" or "(insert trainer's name here) took the eggs!"

Or you could just stumble upon a nest. "(insert trainer's name here) tripped over a nest!" Although I dont quite like the idea myself, but......

Great idea, all in one: Very small chance to encounter eggs in wild(0,5% - 0,8%) and slightly better chance(+~2%) to encounter them on events. Depending on which type of field you encounter egg you will probably get that type of pokemon (40% field kind, 40% dual type including type of field, 10% completely different, 10% empty), and chance of encountering parent(50%) upon the egg. Of course, you could choose if you want take egg, or leave it the way it is.

The chances of obtaining these eggs will be slim and rare as rare as finding an shiny pokemon. But I do like the whole concept

I don't know if it should be that rare...
Maybe 2-4%, with a 2% chance out of that chance it will be a rare Pokemon. Even with that chance, if the 50% chance of a mother (or higher) is incorporated, it will be a very rare chance of getting an egg. I'd say there should be a 2% chance of the pokemon being a rare pokemon such as Absol, so that the chances of getting a specific Pokemon are rare yet not completely insane, like the chances of a shiny Pokemon.

i think 2-4% is waaay too much, just imagine every 25-50 steps on grass, and look, egg!  i think no one will take it like rare thing but as pain in the ass. just imagine you want go to other town and you find 3 eggs, really nonsence  ::)

and yes, if you use repel you have 0% chance to get an egg

As logical as it is, (and when has Pokemon ever followed logic?) I wouldn't want to see them in the wild. Period. I would much rather it be part of an event set up by the staff.

From the viewpoint of a breeder, this would just not be fun for me. I already love waiting for that one, great egg. The rest are either set free into the wild or given to trainers just starting out. Or, that's how it would work if I was a breeder. Anyway; the idea of finding eggs in the wild is appealing, I admit, but I just don't think it would turn out well in actual execution.

Ah, I was thinking it would be like 2-4% every time you would normally come across a Pokemon in the wild, but instead you find a nest. You may then choose to take the egg or leave it, with the chance of  a mother being close by. If it is the way you guys were thinking, it should be about .5% or .8%.

I think that 1-2% is enough, not too rare, not to common.
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

There are 2 possible ideas:
1) o.5%-0.8% chance of finding a nest with every step in tall grass
2) 2% chance of finding a nest for every encounter with wild pokemon
Be clear about which option you are talking about to avoid misunderstandings.
