>>56468606When you breed a male and female the egg will get the inherited DVs of the parent of the opposite sex (so a son will get mum's defence DV and her special DV+/-8, and a daughter will get dad's DVs the same way) instead of male and ditto or female and ditto where the child will always get Ditto's DVs.
From your description it sounds like you have a shiny family (well obviously if it is shiny itself!) father and a non shiny family mother. This means that they can breed as they are in different families. This means that your options are
>Female Cyndaquil, inherits dad's statsSince dad is Shiny family, the female Cyndaquil will get the SV stats but female Cyndaquil can't be shiny. This is because gender ratio is calculated on the attack DV, and a female Cyndaquil will always have an attack DV of 0 or 1. Shinies need 10s in Speed, Defence and Special with an Attack of 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14 or 15. A female Cyndaquil can never be shiny.
>Male Cyndaquil, inherits mum's statsThis Cyndaquil will have non shiny family stats and will never be shiny.
>But I want to breed shiny Cyndaquils quickly, what gives?!The process to breed them quickly if you want multiple legitimate ones is quite simple, but unfortunately backwards from what you have done. Instead of breeding shiny dad with non shiny mum, you need to breed a shiny family mum with non shiny dad. Any of the female Cyndaquils you got in your current breeding session should be shiny family, but they won't breed with their dad because they are in the same family. Instead, use one of the males from your breeding session, they will have mum's genes and sibling incest is fine in gen 2 if the parent wasn't ditto!
