Hey guys, what's the standard rate for breeding projects around here? I'm providing someone with the partially complete parents to make it easier and since they can keep whatever they breed as long as I get a parent back I'm not sure how to repay them. I realized that if I'm going to give them X amount of bred pokemon I may as well complete the project myself because it's ultimately going to be more time consuming to give them more breeds in addition to everything else. I want to be fair but I also don't have time to breed a bunch of pokemon for what is essentially just going to be one pokemon.
It really depends on the person you're trading with:
Personally I'd prefer someone traded me a partially complete parent (ball + egg moves + female; nature and IVs I don't care for) since the thing I enjoy when playing is breeding/catching :).
Other people however enjoy collecting Pokémon, in which case they'd most likely prefer either one finished Pokémon, or 3 of 4 semi-complete ones for their work.
If you're starting from scratch (no egg moves, having to catch in ball, etc.) then (to me) one incomplete parent is worth a finished breed of something the other party already had available to breed; but if both parties are starting from scratch, or both from things they'd already completed, I'd say 2 or 3 incomplete for one finished breed would be fair. (Obviously this is subjective, and other factors [low % female, HA, etc.] play a role too.)
