Does selective breeding work in Fallout Shelter?
Nope, don't waste your time. It's all RNG (Random Number Generation). While it might seem like you're getting better Dwellers by pairing certain ones, it's just the luck of the draw. Just enjoy the game and don't overthink it.

Can confirm from personal experience, selective breeding does help a bit. I focused on pairing my Dwellers with high Intelligence, and after a few generations, it was noticeable that the newborns had better starting Intelligence stats. It's not a guarantee, but it does seem to influence the results!
Absolutely! In Fallout Shelter, selective breeding is a bit of a hidden feature. You can pair up Dwellers with desirable traits like high SPECIAL stats to improve the chances that their offspring will inherit these traits. Think of it as strategic matchmaking for the post-apocalyptic future. Just remember, it's all about the stats!
