[DISCUSSION] Question about Masuda Method
#1
I looked at multiple sites for an answer, but ended up confused, so I'll ask you guys for help ^^;;

So I'm currently MMing for a shiny treecko in XY and I'm at 480 eggs, but my 3DS died and now I'm set back to 450 (30 egg progress gone QQ). My question is, when are the stats for the eggs determined? Is it once the man HAS the egg or when you TAKE the egg? I want to know because I don't want to have rehatch 30 eggs identical to the 30 I took before my 3DS died (all of them non-shiny lol) :/

Which leads me to a new question, if all the eggs are indeed different when you pick them up, would it be possible to SR them (not like picking up 5 eggs, saving, and then SRing after you hatched them all (since at that point the stats are 100% set), but I mean save in front of the daycare man, take eggs, hatch them, and if they aren't shiny then SR and take 5 NEW eggs from him).

Sorry if this sounds confusing, I can clear things up more if you have questions!

EDIT: When I mean the eggs being different, I mean having different stats, kind of like it being a random string of code that's always changing until I take the egg from the daycare guy, meaning the eggs I REHATCH are 100% different from the 30 I hatched (and then lost) earlier.
Found a shiny? Talk about it here!!
