Question

How many Pikachus do I put in?

Community Answer

One male, one female. When you talk to the old man outside the daycare, as long as he doesn't say "the two don't play with each other," you're doing it right.

Question

Can I get a light ball in this?

Community Answer

No. Though the wild Pikachu may be holding one, the Pichu you hatch won't be holding anything.

When hatching eggs, put a Pokémon in your party with the Flame Body or Magma Armor Ability and ride your Bike back and forth from the beach to Vendanturf Town.

If you want your Pichu to know Volt Tackle, catch one of its parents while it holds the light ball.

If you don't want too many Pichu, take your Pikachus out after you have enough eggs or you'll end up with 60 Pichu that you don't know what to do with.
