For those who are adding those two lines so the eggs have a different sprite depending on the species: pokemon that can have more than one offspring (illumise and volbeat or the nidoran, for example) will have the sprite change between both options every time you enter that screen. To solve that, you can make the game create the egg as soon as this plugin makes it appear on the screen.
This would go in this plugin:
def pbCreateEgg
$PokemonGlobal.day_care_egg = $PokemonGlobal.day_care.generate_egg
end
You have to create the variable so give it any name you want.
Then you have to change the part of the code that looks for the egg path for this (again, in this plugin):
def egg_path
return "Graphics/Battlers/egg" if MAJOR_VERSION < 19
return "Graphics/Pokemon/Eggs/000" if MAJOR_VERSION == 19
pbCreateEgg if !$PokemonGlobal.day_care_egg
egg = $PokemonGlobal.day_care_egg
return GameData::Species.egg_sprite_filename(egg.species, egg.form)
end
In Overworld_DayCare search for
def self.collect_egg and change it for this:
def self.collect_egg
day_care = $PokemonGlobal.day_care
egg = $PokemonGlobal.day_care_egg
raise _INTL("Couldn't generate the egg.") if egg.nil?
raise _INTL("No room in party for egg.") if $player.party_full?
$player.party.push(egg)
$PokemonGlobal.day_care_egg = nil
day_care.reset_egg_counters
end
And done! Now the egg should not change its sprite every time you enter the daycare checker. It also means that the egg you see in the daycare checker is the egg you receive. If you don't change the last code, there's a 50% chance that you receive an illumise or a female nidoran from the daycare when the checker shows a volbeat or male nidoran eggs.
Note: made this little explanation because it was asked somewhere else.
