What if a pokemon holding one of the Arceus plates during breeding would cause the offspring's Hidden Power to be the same typing as the plate? Would this be considered a good choice?

Brilliant idea.
God that would be amazing.

>/vp/ has a good idea for once
do this, get rid of IVs. boom, breeding became 100% more tolerable.
>Today on Bizarro /vp/: An anon has a good idea
>>26948197
the good idea would be removing hidden power desu
>>26947971
This is actually brilliant.
We need a Physical HP too. And HP fairy.
>>26947971
That's actually a really good idea. Plus, you could obtain Hidden Power Fairy.

Breeding 5 iv pokemon is the easiest thing in the world already.

So it's just like with Volt Tackle Pikachu. Pick your poison:
>Random IVs (no Destiny Knot)
>Random Nature (no Everstone)
Or just skip the breeding part entirely and just make an NPC/object that you can interact with you choose a Hidden Power.

Adding this to the list of good /vp/ ideas just after "finding eggs in the wild" and "riding mons"
Now you have to choose between destiny knot for good IVs or everstone for nature. You could use plate + knot and play the rng game for nature I guess. Not really ideal either way but it makes hidden power easier.

They just need to introduce the Destiny Stone or Ever Knot then.

I need this.
>>26948287
I already had to RNG the nature for my Volt Tackle Raichu, I could do it again.
>>26947971
They should not only do this, but retcon Hidden Power as being completely unrelated to IVs and instead be hereditary.
Have something like 20% chance of getting the dad's HP type, 20% chance of the mom's, and the remaining 60% getting a random new type.
Arceus plates would increase it to 100% rate on the parent holding it.
This would also pretty much solve >>26948287 because you could do something like destiny knot + plate one parent for hidden power and IVs and then do everstone + destiny knot for the actual mon and RNG for the 1/5 HP rate.
