How do I get my female emboar to lay an egg?

I traded someone on gts for a female emboar. I put It with a male ratticate and it won’t lay an egg. Also I can’t catch a ditto because I keep making it faint.

Emboar is in thefieldbreeding group. Leave it with a member of this group, walk around a while, and ta da. You have a tepig egg. Raticate is in the field group, so it should work. Make sure you have the right genders and that you walk around a lot before you check for an egg again.

Here’s a list of field group Pokemonhttp://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Field_(Egg_Group)

You need a male and a female Pokemon from the [Field egg group.][1] Although ratticate is field, they won’t always breed. It does depend a bit. But make sure you got the things like the gender. Then just wait a while.

Basically, get any male Pokemon from that group I linked above. Make sure they rare high(er) leveled, and mix and match them a but until you get the egg. Egg moves and passing natures is different, but if you don’t care about that then it doesn’t matter.

Make sure that you walk for around 255 steps before checking the day care center. Pokemon eggs have cycles, and every 255 steps there is a CHANCE, not a certainty, that an egg was made. Pretty much just have a lot of patience and keep on checking.
