In Pokémon GO you can now hatch even more regional Pokémon. Niantic has increased the number of eggs from gifts.
What has changed? Until now, you could only get a 7-km egg from a friend’s gift. However, now you have the chance to receive 2 eggs per gift.
After many players expressed their frustration over the low daily limit for opening gifts, this is now a good compromise. After all, you can now receive more eggs from gifts again.
More eggs from gifts – What this means for you
How many eggs can you get now? Exact probabilities cannot be stated yet. However, the fact is that not every gift will guarantee 2 eggs. There are still gifts that contain no eggs.
Previously, you received about 12-15 eggs from 20 gifts. Now it could easily be 20 eggs, as you can now receive 2 eggs more often.
What does this mean for players? More eggs also means better chances of finding regional Pokémon that can be Shiny. Currently, you can find Porenta, Pantimos, Tauros, and Kangama in the 7-km eggs.
The chance of getting a Shiny increases as well. The Shiny rate is about 1 in 30 to 1 in 50. Until now, it often wasn’t due to bad luck, but rather because one simply couldn’t obtain any more 7-km eggs.
Now you can get more eggs, and surely some players will also be rewarded with a Shiny.
How long will this change last? This feature is unfortunately limited to a few days. Already next Monday, September 23, you will again receive a maximum of one egg from gifts. The reason for this is the end of the Ultra Bonus at 10 PM.
Currently, you can also find Mewtwo in raids. We will show you how you can defeat it with four players:
