I really am tired of how Game Freak constantly tries to hide where Daycare eggs come from...
It was cute back in Gold and Silver, "We have no idea how the egg got there!" I get it, you wanted to preserve the innocence of the children. The innocent children who burn hours on Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty and other "Rated M game here."
But now? It's 2019. We all know where babies come from. Children have actual shows that show pregnant women. So why the heck does Game Freak still hide behind this whole, "We don't know where the egg came from." BS? It's asinine. You literally can't get an egg unless you have a male and a female pokemon. I'm pretty certain every kid that plays the game is gonna know where the heck the egg came from.
I get it though, you don't want to have the idea that pokemon mate to make an egg... which is dumb to begin with. But I kind of get it. But then you throw in actually Pokemon BREEDERS. They are actually called, breeders. The definition of the word breed, literally means "(of animals) mate and then produce offspring." It means to have sex. It means that the pokemon mate with one another and then of course, produce eggs.
In fact one of the main characters in the actual anime says that they want to become the best Pokemon Breeder and has stated this in various episodes. So, do they just throw the word "breeder" out? Thinking that no one is gonna know what it means?
You don't even have to go into detail. Just say, "Your pokemon had an egg! Do you want it?" Bam. Problem solved. But what's the point of adding, "We don't know how it got there!" to the line? I thought it was dumb back when I was 11 years old playing Gold and Silver.
Am I being too harsh with how Game Freak handles the whole "where the egg came from" thing?
