Says in the first post of the Egg House that fossil Pokemon only hatch from Enigma Eggs, and that they are confirmed Ultra Rare.

As soon as I can afford to keep my next hatch, I'll be aiming for Flying and Fighting eggs until my dream team is completed. As for now, my hatches are mostly to trade away, hence having picked a Dragon egg this time.

If she's a queen, perhaps you could call her Elizabeth or Victoria? (Bloody) Mary? Guinevere (rhymes with Bedivere ;O)? Ariel? Ursula? *shot*

You're forgetting Rhyhorn's most prominent feature. =3= AIM FOR THE HORN!

Also I'm sure you all know what Type of Egg I'm going for once I have space. ^~

Heh, I'd get a Rock egg to try for Onix (because we need more hilarious hatches ^_^), but after my top two wants, I'll likely hatch Grass eggs and go for the starters.

Looks like the only Snivy on UPN are Shadowshocker's and UNOwenwasme's.

Looks like the only Turtwig on UPN are Poke_Hunter's, Cyprus', Rakurai's, and Aquatic Angel's.

Psychic Pokemon are cool in theory but there's so few I actually like enough to get in FB. Hypno, Exeggcutor, Espeon and Grumpig have all featured as Pokemon that I like but only Slowbro is one that I'd consider taking as a team member.

Hmmmm... I'm honestly not really gunning for any Psychic types, other than maybe Wynaut. I've since removed Woobat/Swoobat from my list after realizing how many flying types I already have. I think I could make a really fun character for Wynaut if I had one. :3

...Why was I suddenly struck with a whim for Umbreon? O_o Hopefully, it will pass soon.

*Bobble approves* \/(^_^)\/

I'm still thinking about maybe getting an Espeon in FB. Other than that, not sure what Psychic Types I would want, if any.

Like I said, my goal is to trade it away; I thought it would be easier to find people interested in a Dragon than in a Psychic-Type, but it might have been poor judgment. :P

I really dislike Dragons but if you ever switch to normal .... get one of the 5 normals I want and you're on a winner ;).

Normals are very dangerous territory for me, because I like way too many of them and I can't afford to whim right now.

*thinks Furret, Linoone, Tauros, Exploud, Ursaring, Bibarel (what?), Zangoose, Swellow...* 8D

Really, I have to restrict myself to the two I want the most right now. After that, screw everything, I'm giving in to every single whim. :P

Same here Marble. It's to the point that if I had to be type specialist, it would be normal. I love too many normal types. :B

I think I have a good idea on what you're wanting to hatch now- it's the other normal babies isn't it? Judging by some of your posts in the TO, particularly about trying to hatch a baby and grumbling about how rare it is, I believe this to be the case...

I'm fine with my snuggly Munna for now in terms of Psychic types *hugs Steven*, but if I ever wanted another I'd be aiming for Espeon, Xatu (I think it has a lot of untapped RP potential), Starmie or Alakazam.

On the subject of Psychic-types, I just hope nobody hatches a male Wynaut until I have a lot more PC space. The Meowth situation is already driving me crazy as it is.

This is true. Besides, I'm starting to warm up to Leafeon's design. Still not a Pokemon I'd put on my ultimate trade list, though...

The only normal type I want is Ditto. End of story. XD

Ghost type eggs seem to be the big "for profit" investment here at FB. They're immensely popular, and there are a lot of interesting Pokemon that can be hatched from them. Couple that with the two-month restriction period, and there's a lot of potential for a very good trade. That said, I could see a Dragon Egg producing something very trade worthy, too.

Oh, there's a reason why I didn't go for Ghost - the chance that I might get a Male Duskull.
It's one of the Pokémon I'm looking for, but not a priority, and I'd feel terrible if I ditched it only to try and hatch a second one down the road when I start looking for it. :P

I started FB with the idea of becoming a Grass-specialist (and I love Skitty, hence she's my starter). But I like too many Normal-types to limit myself to Grass Pokémon, so I consider myself a Normal/Grass-trainer. ^^ Of course I have "accidents" like Elmira and Minori, but I've fallen for both of them. Only worried about Dewgong's inability to battle on dry land...

Dying to get another Egg! I think I'll be picking a Grass Egg next, whenever that is. x.x

Remember this post? Consider the following:

odds of rolling five of the same number = .00192
odds of rolling four of the same number = .03072
odds of rolling three of the same number = .18432
odds of rolling anything else = 0.78304

The odds of hatching a common egg are roughly four in five. (A little less likely than that, but roughly 80% odds.) Now, compound with this the following observation:

Ghost eggs appear to only have two commons: Duskull and Shuppet. Everything else is either a rare, super rare, or ultra rare. As a result, this means that the odds of hatching a Shuppet are 50% the odds of hatching a common egg, and since the odds of hatching a common egg are roughly 80%, the odds of hatching a Shuppet are roughly 40%.

So now consider this: what are the odds of hatching four Shuppets in a row? They would 0.4^4 or 2.56%. Not terribly likely, no, but not altogether out of the realm of possibilities either. However, it gets worse when we ask this question instead: what are the odds of hatching either Shuppet or Duskull four times in a row? 0.8^4 or 40.96%. And what if you were to hatch twelve Ghost eggs over the course of two years? 0.8^12 = 6.87%. Odds which are even more likely than the odds of hatching a Shuppet four times in a row! Long story short, you could hatch ghost eggs for your entire short-lived FB career and never see anything besides a Shuppet or a Duskull. ^^;

Disclaimer: math may be off. I goofed last time too, so.
