Did you recently come across a Pokemon egg? Did it look yellow and pink? How about green? There’s actually quite a few reasons why your egg is a different color and we are going to explain to you the different types and what they mean. Certain eggs will require you to walk a maximum distance before you can hatch it. Just like in the Pokemon universe, when you get an egg, you need to walk to hatch it.

Pokemon Go Hatching Eggs

After viewing the chart you’re probably curious as to what type of Pokemon you can get if you were to hatch it. Each egg holds random Pokemon and if you were to get the yellow and pink egg you have a high chance to receive Pokemon from other regions. For example, you could get either an Alolan Meowth or Alolan Vulpix. In order to find friends on Pokemon Go you need to add their friend code. You can find your friend code by:

  • Pressing on the trainers face in the bottom left corner
  • Find friend tab
  • Click add
  • Locate Friend Code

Once you have friends, you have the possibility of receiving gifts. Those gifts could possibly be receiving eggs.
