Suggestion Title: Inherriting IV for non-breed Pokemon
Suggestion Summary: Since Nature breeding is possible for nonbreed Pokemon by giving one Pokemon in your Party an Everstone I figured the same could be Possible for IV Breeding and the Destiny Knot.
However in case of Party inheriting we'd have to make sure there are 2 „parents“ that can inherit their Ivs. So the suggestion is that if you hatch a Pokemon without parents AND have 2 Pokemon from the same egg holding a destiny Knot in your party you inherit IV's the same way they would if it had daycare parents holding a Destiny Knot.
This could be combined using a third Pokemon holding an Everstone for Nature inheriting.
Positive points: Would allow to hunt for the perfect nature IV Pokemon no matter where it comes from/ if it has parents.
Negative points: Using 3 Party slots makes this a huge investment. This could be cut down to 2 party slots if a Destiny Knot + Everstone combination would inherit the Ivs of the 2 item holding pokemon, but only the nature of the other.
Reason For Consideration: With nature hunting being possible without actual parents I dont see why this shouldnt be possible for IV's and I have seen more than one person trying to get their hands on better IV Pokis.
Also it consuming multiple party slots makes it an investment that in my humble opinion warrants the benefit!
