TheNo Eggs Discovered Group (Japanese:タマゴ未発見グループEggs Never Discovered Group), known as theNoEggs Egg Group inPokémon Stadium 2, and as theUndiscovered Egg Group inPokédex 3D andPokédex 3D Pro, is one of the fifteenEgg Groups. As ofGeneration IX, 154 Pokémon belong to this group.
Characteristics
The No Eggs Discovered Group is characterized by its members' inability to breed. Most of the Pokémon in the group arebaby Pokémon,Legendary Pokémon,Mythical Pokémon,Ultra Beasts, orParadox Pokémon. Aside from these, bothNidorina andNidoqueen are in this group (while their respective male counterpartsNidorino andNidoking, as well as their pre-EvolutionNidoran♀ and its male counterpartNidoran♂, are not), as well asUnown,Gimmighoul,Gholdengo, and the four chimericFossil Pokémon ofGalar.Cosplay Pikachu,Pikachu in a cap,Battle Bond Greninja, andEternal Flower Floette are also included in the group even though others of their species are capable of breeding.
InPokémon X and Y, all Pokémon in this group are guaranteed to have a perfect 31 in at least three of theirindividual values when caught in the wild or obtained as a gift (except viaMystery Gift). FromPokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire onward, this only applies to Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, and Ultra Beasts. However, as of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, if the player accepts agift Pokémon belonging to this Egg Group while their lead Pokémon has theAbilitySynchronize, that Gift Pokémon is guaranteed to be of the sameNature as the Synchronize Pokémon (unless the Pokémon was received as anEgg or throughMystery Gift). This property was extended to other Egg Groups inPokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.

Of the 1025 Pokémon species, 154 are in this Egg Group (15.02%).

Trivia
- This and theDitto Group are the only ones in which all members are in a single group, since being a member of any other Egg Group would defeat the purpose of being in the No Eggs Discovered group.
- By the time breeding became a game mechanic, it had already been established by Japanese media thatNidorina have lost their ability to lay Eggs upon evolving fromNidoran♀.[1][2]
- The onlyMythical Pokémon not in this Egg Group arePhione andManaphy, which are in theWater 1 andFairy groups.
- Despite not being in this Egg Group, Manaphy is still guaranteed three perfectIVs when obtained from an event.
- Articuno,Zapdos, andMoltres are seen hatching from Eggs inPokémon Snap, even though these Pokémon belong in this Egg Group.
- DespiteDialga,Palkia, andGiratina being in this Egg Group, an event atSinjoh Ruins shows them being created from an Egg.
