Niantic is continuing to announce new events and content for Pokémon GO. Read on below to learn more:
Hatch a plan to secure lots of Incubators and 2 km Eggs.
Pokémon GO is getting a little more egg-citing with a new kind of event: Hatch Day! On July 22, 2023, from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. local time, Riolu will fight its way into the spotlight, hatching much more frequently from 2 km Eggs. Better still, there will be an increased chance of hatching Shiny Riolu, and Trainers will receive double Stardust from hatching Eggs. PokéStops will drop 2 km Eggs more frequently, providing plenty of opportunities to get lots of 2 km Eggs into your Incubators!
Take on event-themed Field Research to earn Candy, Stardust, Berries, Great Balls, and XP. Trainers can earn a Super Incubator by completing no-cost event-exclusive Timed Research, which must be claimed by July 22, 2023, at 5:00 p.m. local time.
Have an egg-cellent Hatch Day, Trainers!
