Tips

Don't load eggs into incubators before reaching Rank 10 — the 1/2 hatch distance bonus doubles your effective walking distance.

Deluxe Pass holders stacking 1.5× Hatch Candy + 1.5× Hatch Stardust from Rank 20 onward get the strongest hatch ROI.

Stack walking, egg-hatching, and research during the GO Points cap removal (June 6–8) for peak rank efficiency.

Galarian Corsola and Hisuian Qwilfish are rare additions to the 7 km Egg pool — prioritize hatching if you're missing them.

GO Pass rewards remain claimable until June 10, 19:59.

Buying GO Pass via the Web Store also delivers 10 Ultra Balls, 5 Max Revives, 1 Premium Battle Pass, and 5 Max Potions.
