Do you want to hatch those eggs quickly because you have other stuff to do and still get some awesome extras to trade? This tutorial can help you in the games from 2004 on up.
Steps
-
Get a Pokémon egg by leaving two Pokémon in the same egg group or a non-legendary Pokémon with ditto. Every 255 steps there is a chance your Pokémon have laid an egg.
-
Get a Pokémon with the ability Magma Armor or Flame Body. Slugma, Magcargo, Magby, Magmar, Magmortar Litwick, Lampent, Chandelure, Larvesta, and Volcarona have these abilities. Litwick and its evolutions may have Flash Fire as an ability, so check to make sure for them.Advertisement
-
Put the Pokémon with Flame Body or Magma Armor in your party. Magma Armor halves the number of egg cycles, and Flame Body halves the number of steps needed for the egg to hatch, thus making egg hatching more efficient.
-
Hatch the Pokémon egg by running around. Use a fast bike and cycle up and down somewhere with a long stretch of open ground. Use the Mauville breeding line in Hoenn, the Solaceon breeding line in Sinnoh and the Cycling Road in Kanto. You can tell the egg's progress in hatching by checking its summary."It was great, it really helped me with hatching eggs while biking." more comments
-
Find a mudslide.
-
Use the Acro Bike to try to go up it. Every time you fail you have taken one step. You can sit there with a weight on the forward button and it will hatch before you know it!
- Unfortunately, this error has been rectified in Emerald, so you'll have to use the Mauville breeding line. But, this was untouched in Gen IV games, so good luck!
-
Go to the Fuego Ironworks near Floaroma Town.
-
Find a place where the slide tiles faces the wall.
-
Position your character next to the wall then hold down the direction button that sends your character to the slide tile with a rubber band or bulldog clip. Leave this for as long as necessary.
- For Pokémon X and Y, try this method.
-
Get a Ditto. It doesn't matter what gender the Pokémon is. Ditto breeds with everything because of its transforming ability.
-
Place the Ditto and other the Pokémon you wish to breed with in the daycare on Route 7.
-
Find Froufrou palace. There will be a courtyard near by. Using your bicycle, ride around the courtyard and go back to the daycare to obtain your egg.
-
4Go back to the courtyard and ride around until the egg hatches. [[Image:Hatch Pokémon Eggs Step 13 Version 4.jpg|center]

Acquire a Pokémon Egg. To hatch a Pokémon Egg in Pokémon Go, you need to find one first. To find an Egg, walk to your nearest PokéStop and activate it by spinning the medal that appears in its center. A number of items will appear, and one may be an Egg, if not you can try again with another PokeStop. Or you can collect 7k eggs from opening gifts your friends sent you! To open a gift, go to your profile on the bottom left corner of the screen and then tap friends; there will be a list of friends. You can sort them by gift and simply tap on the ones that have sent you one, then tap on the gift to open it!
-
Check how long the Egg will take to hatch. Once you have an egg, you want to know how long it'll take you to hatch it once it's incubated. To do this:
- Open your items by pressing the PokéBall on the bottom of the screen.
- Tap the "Pokémon" button.
- Tap "Eggs" in the top-right corner.
- Find your Egg and tap on it. On the screen, the Egg will display as either 2km, 5km, 7k or 10km. This tells how far you need to travel in order to hatch the Egg (in kilometers).
-
Incubate the egg. Once you have your Egg, you must incubate it to hatch it. You can do this either using the Incubator you receive at the beginning of the game, or by buying more in the PokéShop. To incubate your egg:
- Navigate to your Eggs as described above.
- Tap on the Egg you wish to hatch.
- Select "Incubate" to begin the incubation process.
-
Travel the distance specified on the egg. If your egg is a 5km egg, you will need to travel 5km to hatch it. So, get walking, jogging, skateboarding, or cycling! After you have travelled this distance, you will see a screen that says "Oh?" and your Pokémon will hatch! [1] X Research source
- You must travel the distance specified with the app open.
- You cannot incubate your egg while traveling faster than 20mph.
- Pay attention to your surroundings while traveling with the app open.
- The longer the distance required, the rarer the Pokémon.
-
Incubate another Egg once one Egg hatches. When the Egg you were incubating hatches, your Incubator will continue to "deteriorate." Make the most of your Incubator by putting another egg into it as soon as possible.
- To hatch multiple eggs at once, you can purchase additional Incubators at the shop.
-
Put the egg in your party.
-
Head to the small fenced in area with the hay bales directly across from the Pokémon Nursery on foot.
-
Once in there get on Tauros and use the circle pad to spin around in circles while holding down the B button. This is the quickest way hatch an egg.
-
Or you can just keep it in your party while you walk from place to place if you're in no hurry.

Community Q&A
-
QuestionCan I hatched an evolved Pokemon?Community AnswerIt depends. If the Pokemon's pre-evolution is a baby Pokemon (i.e. Munchlax, Budew, and Azurill), where you need the parent Pokemon to hold a specific item/incense to hatch a baby Pokemon, then yes, your Pokemon that you hatch will be "evolved." However, with most other Pokemon having non-baby pre-evolutions, you will get the first-evolved stage of the Pokemon.
-
QuestionWhat do I do if my Pokemon eggs won't hatch?Community AnswerAll non-glitch eggs will hatch. Just keep cycling!
-
QuestionWhile riding on Latios/Latias in ORAS, will that count as steps?Community AnswerRiding Latios or Latias won't count. It'll only stop the egg cycle.
Tips
- Breeding Lines. Breeding Lines are long uninterrupted stretches of ground that you can run or bike along. Each line is usually 150 steps long. The Solaceon line is on the very right of the path through Solaceon town (you'll have to use the fast gear to get up the mud slides) and the Mauville one follows the very top of the path below Day Care.Thanks
- If you have received an egg, go to Goldenrod city and ride your bike up and down and keep checking the eggs summary and it will hatch.Thanks
- Keep watch of your game system, and put the sound on the maximum. It is recommended to place the game system on a desk near you computer so you can do stuff on the computer while you are hatching the egg/s.Thanks
Tips from our Readers
- "In ORAS, the Battle Resort has a line you can hold up on the D-pad to keep going in a circle. There's also a daycare there, too, for breeding. Just find the corner that lines up with the daycare boy so you're right in front of him. Hold up to keep going."
- "In Oras, you can also use the Acro bike to cycle around the battle resort and use as your breeding line."
- "Go to Cosmos Valley and activate the hoverboard on the trails or spin a circle at Lagoona Lake."
- "If you're playing Pokémon X or Y, use the day care to get a breed you want and ride the bike."
- "When you have an egg, go to the cycling road where Snorlax was caught and go down faster."
- "Kill some time by walking around the region until the egg hatches."
Warnings
- If the Pokémon in Daycare are low enough level that they will still learn moves through leveling up, they will automatically learn level-up moves and delete a random move.Thanks
About This Article
To hatch a Pokémon Egg without walking, try turning off Google Maps on your phone, which causes the location function to glitch so that the game thinks your avatar is walking around near your location. Alternatively, you can carefully attach your phone to anything that rotates, such as record player, a fan, or a toy train, to trick it into thinking you’re walking around. You can also leave the app open while you’re sitting in traffic so that it records your mileage for egg incubation. For tips on where you can find eggs in Pokémon Go, read on!
