===Spotlight on: Pokémon eggs===
===Character of the Day: Cheren===
* '''Pokémon eggs''' were introduced as a major franchise mechanic in [[Generation II]] along with the introduction of [[Pokémon breeding]].
* '''Cheren''' (Japanese: '''チェレン''' ''Cheren'') is a [[rival]] character in {{2v2|Black|White}}, and a [[Gym Leader]] in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.
* According to a girl in [[Solaceon Town]] near the [[Pokémon Day Care]], no one has ever seen a Pokémon lay an egg, and so it is not confirmed that this is how they appear. The [[Day-Care Couple|Day-Care Man]] always comments that he does not know how the egg got there when giving it to the player.
* Cheren is a childhood friend of the [[Player character|player]] who, like the player, lives in the starting town of [[Nuvema Town]]. While he holds a greater knowledge in Pokémon than his friends and tends to offer the player advice during the course of their journey, his comments are often witty and intellectual.
* {{p|Manaphy}} is the only Pokémon in the [[main series]] games to be depicted with a unique egg design—all other Pokémon use a generic egg sprite.
* Whilst [[Professor Juniper]] describes him as being very honest, she also remarks that he can be 'a little difficult'; his impatience in particular is often seen throughout the earlier stages of his journey. He is also described as being quite judgmental by [[Alder]].
* In the anime, as well as some spin-off games, eggs' shells are shown to have physical appearances of the contained Pokémon.
* The player will encounter and battle him several times throughout the game. After the main storyline, Cheren can be found inside Victory Road where he can be battled once a day.
* ''[[EP263|Address Unown]]'' reveals that Pokémon can see outside their eggs.
* In Black 2 and White 2, Cheren is the new {{type|Normal}} Gym Leader. He gives away the {{badge|Basic}}, replacing [[Lenora]].  
* In [[My Pokémon Ranch]], [[Hayley]] will trade her {{p|Mew}} for an egg after there are 999 Pokémon in the ranch.
* In the [[Be a Master!! Pokémon BW]] manga, Cheren is friends with both [[Monta]] and Bianca, he is very knowledgable about Pokémon, which Monta dislikes. He also appears in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga as a supporting character.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Chess BW Version]], a {{p|Victini}} egg acts as the equivalent of a king piece in chess. The egg can take three hits before it hatches, and Victini can take one before fainting. If this Victini faints, the controlling player loses.
*{{TCG ID|Emerging Powers|Cheren|91}} has appeared on a card in the {{TCG|Emerging Powers}} expansion. He is a {{TCG|Supporter card}} that allows the player to draw 3 cards.
* Despite the concept of Pokémon eggs not yet being introduced, [[Mr. Fuji]]'s {{p|Doduo}} was shown to have hatched from an egg in ''[[PS013|Sigh for Psyduck]]''.
