Characteristics
Most Bug-type Pokémon fall into this egg group, making its characteristics similar to that of the Bug-type itself. Other insectoid Pokémon such as Drapion, Gliscor and Flygon are also included in this group, despite not actually being Bug-types.
In this egg group, moves are not passed down as easily, as most base-level Bug Pokémon cannot learn any moves by breeding. There is a notably small amount of Pokémon that are in this group and another, making chain breeding difficult as well.

Trivia
- The Bug egg group is nearly completely exclusive to Bug-type Pokémon; however, it does notably contain several buglike Ground-types and lacks Anorith and Armaldo.
- Notably, while Nincada and Ninjask are in this egg group, their relative Shedinja is not. It is instead in the Mineral group for unknown reasons.
