Are the genders/natures and stuff of Pokemon predetermined when you recieve its egg?

Question

Could I potentially save right before the egg hatches and keep quitting until I get the right gender or whatever I want?

Answer 1

No. Once you receive the egg from the Daycare man it's nature, ability, gender and moves are all determined.

Aw man... I probably wouldn't have done that anyway, it would be kind of like cheating. But it's good to know, thanks.
