Q&A for How to Hatch Pokémon Eggs

It depends. Generally, you will hatch the Pokémon's base form. However, for Pokémon with a baby pre-evolution (e.g., Munchlax, Budew, Azurill), if the parent Pokémon does not hold the specific item required to hatch the baby, you will hatch the next stage up, which is considered an "evolved" form in that context. For most other Pokémon, you will always hatch their initial, unevolved stage.

Once inside, ride your Tauros, hold the B button, and move in circles.
