Yes, it does. Depending on which pokemon you're trying to hatch, it's possible it may just have a really big amount of egg cycles. Which pokemon are you hatching? A good way to cut it in half is to have a Magma Armor/Flame Body abilitied pokemon in your party.
Yeah, I noticed that it started to hatch shortly after I posted.
It's the Happiny Egg from Nacrene City so yeah, it does have a large egg Cycle
and Yes I have a Flame body Pokemon.
I've done enough Hatching in Diamond not to forget that detail....
But I'm so use to watching my counter...
This is a lot harder to keep track of where I am without it.

Are you playing in BW or BW2? Cuz iirc, BW have an Extralink pass power to quicken hatching, and BW2 have the option of a Nursery in Join Avenue to help either partically hatch, or just flat out hatch an egg for you (for a fee of course).
Does Female Dream World Slowpoke exist?
I'm been farming the Dream World for a female slowpoke for some time now, and all I can ever find is males. From my understanding, DW pokemon have a 1 in 4 chance of being female, right? Am I doing something wrong to run into over a dozen male slowpokes without even a single appearance of a female?

Dream World Slowpoke is found in the Sparkling Sea area of the Dream World. Females are rarer than males. You're not doing anything wrong, just probably haven't run into a Female yet.

It's W2. Yeah, if I ever get around to bothering with Join Avenue, I suppose I should do some of it.
I just hate all the Mini-games and "Activities" in this Gen. So tedious.
Re: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)
Too any other breeders out there, What's your take on this.
Just got a Female DW Onix with 3 perfect IVs; Atk/Def/Spd
Only issue, it's Lonely so it wouldn't be a good Pokemon to battle with.
What kind of Luck is that.
So I suppose I could try breeding it if I had the drive.
My question, is it worth breeding it?
I haven't done any breeding in BW2 yet
so I don't know if it'll be different then from Diamond,
but trying to breed for it's DW ability to boot makes me dread doing it.

If it's for in-game play, nature doesn't really matter as really anything can get you by.

Well, true...... although, if I did use a Steelix, it would likely be for a competitive challenge....
And I'll likely end up trying to breed it anyway because I'm OCD like that....

Well if it's for competitive play, then you should best take your inquiry here :)

How does one breed a Feebas with Dragon Pulse and Hypnosis?

I have the Dream Radar on my 3DS. It's pretty fun. Basically, you use the 3DS's AR camera to look around the room and shoot clouds with orbs. When you shoot darker clouds, they'll release a special glowing orb that you can shoot for a chance to get Pokémon or items. Rarer Pokémon have orbs that move faster, attack back more often, or phase in and out.
The controls are fairly simple. Move the 3DS around to look around the area, and press A to shoot (holding down A produces a continuous beam that is useful for wearing down Pokémon or items you're trying to capture). The only thing that bugs me is that sometimes the Pokémon (especially the Kami trio and other legendaries) will sometimes keep moving higher and higher, so you have to crane your neck upwards to try to catch them (or wait for them to come back down, if you have enough time).
If you want to know the types of Pokémon you can catch, check out
this page. Note that all Pokémon caught in the Dream Radar will have their hidden ability (except Rotom, but only because Rotom has no hidden ability).
I too have downloaded it and have been using it for a couple if days now. Is it worth it? Are the pokemon worth it? Does it take long to catch them all? I have not made my mind up on it yet.

It doesn't take to long to advance into the game (depending on how often you go on, of course). I think the Pokémon are worth it for the most part. For one, it's the only way to get the Kami trio's Therian forms. It's also a good way to get Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Ho-oh, and Lugia if you don't want to transfer them over from your old games. Other Pokémon also have some useful hidden abilities, but that's more a matter of opinion about what's useful.
Re: Simple Questions / Simple Answers (Gen 5)
I have a question about EV training, if anyone has any suggestions.
I just received my shiny Dratini after defeating the White Treehollow, and I want to train it to the best of it's potential. He has a relaxed nature, proud of its power, and level 1 currently.
Which stats should I train it in? Which numbers do you suggest?
Please and thanks!
