  • All eggs spun from Pokéstops will be 2k, but will have 5/10k hatches inside
  • All eggs will give bonus candy upon hatching
  • The likelihood for babies to hatch from eggs will increase
  • There are also some shop bonuses active.
    • Special Box - 2 Incense, 3 Incubators, 5 Star Pieces - 480 Coins
    • Great Box - 5 Incense, 5 Super Incubators, 10 Star Pieces - 780 Coins

Hopefully you guys get some eggciting hatches :) Best of luck!

Very hyped for this event! More for the double Stardust part than the Eggs. Since the last event, I've been in quite a big Stardust shortage as I was mostly Raiding which meant lots of Rayquaza/Rare Candy but no Stardust to back it up. That whole thing led to a Level 40 Trainer that even hit 0 Stardust at one point :) I've been grinding on wild Pokemon to regain the losses and have tied some loose ends, but there's more to be done, and this event is a great way to get back on track.

I'll be hatching Eggs too, just not as a primary focus. Being done with Pokedex and preferring a "sit by 4 Lured PokeStops and grind Stardust on all the spawns" approach, I doubt I'll be getting much distance recorded unless it's to hit nearby Lugia Raids or a rare spawn is reported. Considering I plan to use my non-free Incubators for all 2kms I get, however, I should get a fair share of bonus Candy hatches anyway.

So, goals for this event:
>Grind as much Stardust as possible. The current plan is to make use of my leftover Rayquaza Candies, save up for Lugia, and then focus on some other projects; not sure what that will be, but I have about 150 Rare Candy in the side too that should see some use.
>Hatch as many 2km Eggs as possible. Again not a hard-end goal, no point having those anymore when I've hit all the major ones already. I might make use of all my Incubator slots for this, however. Got a surplus thanks to the 4 free ones you get when hitting Level 40.

I wouldn't say this event has much prepwork, if anything this was totally overshadowed by Community Day. Oh, because of that, I'd rather not waste too many resources before Sunday either.
