Well that does make sense in a way. Duh... :D
HMPK was created by the selective combination of PK and HM; therefore, if crossing a HMPK back to a traditional PK. Well you just said it. It would create more PK than HMPK.

Thanks.

Really? was it bad luck, or do you think it was something wrong genetically?

I too am hoping to do this but eventually create a double sun tail. Color really doesn't matter but it would be nice if it could be yellow/orange.
