What's the best video games that have in-depth gene and breeding mechanics to let you breed the ultimate member of a species?

Pic related, it's the ultimate horse.

WTF
THAT NIGGA LOOKS LIKE A DOG MORE THAN A HROSE

SHIEEEET

Pokemon, if I hadda guess.

IDK if its the best, but its the only 'deep' one I could think of.

No such game exists, feel free to make it yourself. The best you can get is stat/trait mixing in stuff like Jade Cocoon.

That's a bummer. Why weren't games like Creatures genre-defining instead of forgotten novelties?

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that the mechanic of mixing genes just isn't very fun. Stats and Traits give immediately recognizable results and are just an extension of rpg mechanics, thus easier to conceptualize and implement.

Flight Rising, though less ultimate member of a species and more vanity projects for pixel dragons. It's full of drama though.

what kind of horse is that?

This is a fluffy isn't it OP

Fish Tycoon.
You breed fish and manipulate their traits to get a desirable fish.
That's it, though.

What does a desirable fish look like

And to think I was actually looking forward to Mew-Genics.

"Evolution" genre is cursed.

Looks like a fat Shetland Pony to me, though I suppose they all are. They're hardly ultimate OP, but they are adorable.
Clydestale's are the Ultimate horse.

The closest you can get to that would probably be something like Monster Rancher, wouldn't it? You know the kinda games were you train monsters/animal. I'm pretty sure there's also game specifically where you raise horses.

Fluffy ponies are so 2015

More like 2012.

Jade cacoon.

I know this is a troll post but Mortal Online

Most creatures in game are tameable, each have a unique set of genes, that function similarly as they do in real life with recessive and dominant traits, that contribute to a breeding system. This extends to not only the stats and personality of the creature but also the skins, over time the fur patterns will begin to combine and in addition to having improved stats it will also have a unique look.

I dunno. Played it when I was like 12. Internet is also not very helpful.

...

The Creatures series is the only series of games that does this properly. Simulated dna & neural networks, and they're pretty cute (^:

I liked Creatures 2 most, but I guess Creatures 3 was the best game. Will always have a soft spot in my heart for the series; shame about the crap it is nowadays.

>I know this is a troll post but Mortal Online
It was a joke but I really do love those kinds of games/mechanics. I'll check this game out, thanks.

That's a fluffy pony.

Good luck. It's a lot of work to do anything in that game.

There was a shitty flash game with exactly what you're saying, OP.
It's long dead but it's worth checking anyway.

It's called Critter Forge.

I believe Rouge Galaxy had this whole bug catching and fighting minigame and you could make stronger bugs breed to make even stronger bugs
