Why did I stop hatching HA Ponytas?

Jan. 22, 2021



I’m breeding a 6IV Ditto with an HA Ponyta-G. I was getting HA hatchlings, up until I gave my Ditto a Destiny Knot, and all of a sudden, I haven’t gotten an HA since. Why? Does Destiny Knot disable the other parent from giving their HA?

The Destiny Knot does not prevent Abilities from being passed down.Source:https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Destiny_Knot

Additionally, there is no way to prevent an Ability from being passed down.Source:https://www.reddit.com/r/Pokemonbreeding/comments/f00fan/is_there_a_way_i_can_prevent_an_ability_from/

One more thing, Females and Males breeding with Ditto have a 60% chance to pass down their Hidden Ability if you did indeed Breed the HA one. If you aren’t breeding the HA one, it is impossible to get a HA Ponyta. You are either lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, luck girl, or you most likely had a slight mental lapse of which Ponyta you put into the Daycare Center (Which is much more likely).Source:https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pokémon_breeding
