I just tested it, and yes master/cherish will pass as a standard ball when 2 same species are bred. I used Beast and Master Ball Pikipeks and Beast and Standard were passed down.

Line 498: Line 498:
In Generation VI, male and genderless Pokémon (including {{p|Ditto}}) have no impact on the type of Poké Ball inherited; as such, when breeding a male or genderless Pokémon with Ditto (which is the only way to breed certain species), the offspring is always obtained in a standard Poké Ball. In [[Generation VII]], when breeding a male or genderless Pokémon with Ditto, the Poké Ball of the male or genderless Pokémon (other than a {{ball|Master}} and {{ball|Cherish}}, which result in the default standard Poké Ball) will be passed down to its offspring.

In Generation VII, if a male and female Pokémon of the same [[Pokémon_(species)|species]] are bred the offspring will have an equal chance of inheriting either parent's Poké Ball.
In Generation VII, if a male and female Pokémon of the same [[Pokémon_(species)|species]] are bred the offspring will have an equal chance of inheriting either parent's Poké Ball. If either parent is in a {{ball|Master}} or {{ball|Cherish}} the offspring has a chance of inheriting a standard Poké Ball instead of the Master or Cherish Ball.
