    Make sure you on a completely empty box when you start breeding. Nothing more annoying then having all your eggs mixed in with your pokemon when its time to hatch. Also its a lot easier when it is a box with nothing but eggs, because you can use the minus button to select an entire vertical column and move it to your party all at once, rather then doing it one by one like in the video.

      I do have a question though since it wasn’t addressed probably because it’s not so common but if the ditto is shiny or if it’s 6iv will that increase the chances for shiny and/or 6iv pokémon to hatch from the egg?

      @craigalexander5286 also having a shiny pokemon breed does not increase the chance of breeding a shiny sadly. However, if you give a 6iv ditto a destiny knot, 5 of the 6 IVs are guaranteed to pass down.

    honestly you can also get a foreign ditto by making another playthrough in another language if you have 2 switches (I have regular and OLED) It's pretty fast - i spent longer just waiting on a foreign ditto in SWSH than quick playing through to the ditto location. I'm going for Sprigatito right now! Excellent video!

      I have 2 switches as well with multiple languages so thats also a very good plan to get one lol. It's crazy because getting a ditto via the 4448-4448 code is like shiny hunting in and of itself for some people but its usually quick for me xD The compliment also means a lot. Thanks!

    Great video! One question: I noticed you had Pokémon from two regions I assume aren’t your region. If I get a non-English Ditto, and breed it with English Pokémon I catch in my game, is that good enough for the Masuda method? Or do both Pokémon need to be from different regions separate from my own?

    Btw, just throwing this out there:
    I always go to the very first town you come across in the game (Los Platos) and buy an Egg Power 1 ice cream for 900 money at the ice cream stand near the Pokémon Center. But since this video explained- and showed where to simply buy something that gives you Egg Power 2 rather than make it yourself, I decided to try it out. It appears to NOT be worth it. The ice cream is 900 bucks. The sandwich is 2800. From the ice cream I got 57 eggs. From the sandwich I got 62. Barely any difference for that much more money. I suggest going for the ice cream or perhaps making your own sandwiches if that's cheaper; I haven't really tried my hand at making my own food much lol.
