Actually, I had started this comic about four months ago, but hit a snag when my scanner was slightly inaccessible, as I had drawn such good Old-Man-With-Egg's on physical paper I didn't want to ink them without tracing the sketches. When I found the file/paper again and wanted to finish it up, I ended up using my iSight to photograph the sketches rather than setting up the scanner. ^w^ I'm way too lazy! But once I did that, it was a quick finish.
I breed sooooo much in Emerald -- especially Heal Bell Chansey, since I was keen to get a really Defense-heavy Chansey. (My brothers and sisters always ask what I'm doing on my GBA, and if I say hatching Chansey, they proceed to bludgeon me to death, I've been at it so long.) I've probably spent 100 hours worth of gametime over the years just biking back and forth with my Slugma and 5 eggs, and bred over 100 Chanseys alone. (Maybe 40 or so Feebas, specifically for a good nature to use for Battle Palace, and 10-30 of other species.) It's sort of annoying when you have to let the old man say the exact same stuff each time, when clearly in real life he'd either get a clue as to how eggs happen or, as illustrated above, get extremely annoyed. (Biking around in front of his Daycare Center probably doesn't help the annoyance factor, either.) Although, granted, his speech isn't nearly as annoying as the Elite Four "You're the new champion!" every single time...
But enough ranting about Pokemon. Just kidding -- I've got more:
The best Pokemon I've ever bred? A 25/2/31/29/31/28 Bold Chansey!! With Serene Grace!! (BoltBeam anyone?) ...which I then proceeded to mess up the EV training and then Rare Candy up to 100 *and save* before I noticed. CRUD and CRUD again!! BAHH!
I know what ya feel I put my Pachirisu and Roselia in the day care and i had to go o the daycare every 2 minutes just to get a egg with a squirrel and NO EGG MOVES.
I feel your pain. Although, I don't wish to dwarf your efforts, there is one thing that I must say about my breeding experiences back in Emerald... I bred Eevees......... as in overbred them. Being the Eeveelution freak that I am, I went crazy on getting as many Eevees as possible. It got so out of hand, they filled up all my boxes, and I had to release the bad-natured/IV'd Eevee to make room for the "next generation." In total, I bet you I bred over 700+ Eevees.... I'm not exaggurating that number.... and that's before DPPt. -faint- It was worth it, though. Out of 700+ Eevee, I got a 31 SPD IV'd Timid Eevee w/ HP Ice 70 (became Jolteon straight away), another 31 SPD IV'd Timid Eevee, this time with HP Ground 66 (became my Scarf-Glaceon), and best of all, a SHINY Calm Eevee (first shiny I ever had, FYI) with a 31 IV for SP ATK and SP DEF... which I proceeded to screw up in evolving to Espeon and leveling it to 100 with maxed EVs in SPD and SP ATK....... but the thrill of that moment would've been worth 1800 Eevees for sure.
Okay, I'll shut up about myself, now.
Related to this comic, I found this absolutle halarious. I found this about a month ago (give or take a few weeks... I forget) and just died laughing. Anytime I'm breeding, now, I always have this comic up and just read it over and over and over while I'm biking. You should try a BW comic version that incorperates the "Hey, -trainer-! Come over here for a second!" when he has an egg ready for you. That would be epic. XD
Also, for the record, I deem this comic to be worthy of 1000 favorites, not 89. Seriously, what's wrong with these 3000+ other viewers?! XD
