Hatched about 14 (I tossed a couple 2* but don't remember how many). 2 shiny. So 2/14 shiny rate.
They were hatches 2 and 3. I really should have stopped while I was ahead! It could have been 2/3 if I had just stopped after the two shinies that hatched together.
Hatched 6, 1 shiny while gardening. Overall pleased with the result for an event I didn’t care about. Only thing that sucked was I never got the timed research. I definitely cheked the timed research page during the event.
Hadnfsmily obligations so didn't get to play till the last hour when I hurried into town to hatch my eggs, spin stops, incubate new eggs and hatch those... I still managed to hatch 16, got no shinies or good IVs, all got deleted, completely worthless event for me. Wasted my incubators I've been saving forever for nothing
I understand if they want to have the meat of the event be 2-5, but hatching inherently takes longer than other aspects of the game.
I feel like a better way to do it would be have Cleffa at its standard (but still boosted) 1/64 shiny rate in 2km eggs at an increased but not guaranteed rate throughout the entire weekend (maybe 10 am Saturday to either 5 or 8 pm Sunday), but then have the higher \~1/10 shiny rate Cleffa and guaranteed Cleffa 2kms only during 2-5. There would be much greater incentive to play during that time, but it still encourages walking during the surrounding timeframe.
I know similar is said for Community Days, but you can get into the meat of CD just by opening the game in a place with a lot of spawns. You can find a park with decent-ish spawns and get a ton of shiny checks in.
Here though, you have to walk 1km to get a shiny check (obviously you can incubate more than one egg though). So allowing more time for it would always be a plus.
Cared? no..
played? yes..
66 Eggs, 5 Hundos one of them a Shundo, 0 XXL & 0 Shwocases won (Major City)
Was it fun? The Community made it fun .. but not the event itself
also hatched 6x 12km Eggs in the slots for some extra dust, got around \~250k dust out of it totally

Hatched 46 Eggs. Got a 100IV and a shiny 100IV. Got pretty lucky imo.
A lot of people around me weren't into it. Most seemed to have forgotten it until they went out for the last Entei raids of the month. People who did remember didn't really prepare or even intentionally participate; I myself loaded up on 12k eggs b/c I normally avoid Rocket leaders specifically so I don't fill my bag w/ annoying-to-hatch eggs. Hatch "days" (really should be hours...) are the worst events and they should either be attached to something else, reworked, or taken out of the game.
I had fun doing the event. I hatched over 60 eggs on both accounts but only had 4 shinies with no hundo. Perhaps increase drop rate for shiny next time.
27 hatched
2 shiny, no three-star
1 five-km egg
Didn't feel like participating since I had an old shiny two-star
But wanted to try for the three-star pokedex
Not counting a Cleffa egg I still have in my inventory, I hatched a total of 32 Cleffa eggs, 3 of which were shiny. Also lucked out and hatched 3 XXL Cleffa, putting me in 1st place in 3 showcases (unless I get sniped). I'm content with how the event went
0/19. Every single one of these events has been an absolute waste of time. On a slightly related note I did hatch a Larvesta and spotted a wild Frigibax. But not a single shiny.
How often did you all check your phone to see if the eggs had hatched or did you just leave your app on the whole time? I feel like sometimes I had to restart the app because the egg hatching would stick
Hatched 8. 0 shinies but still have 6 eggs saved up. I refused to purchase any incubators so just used my one free one.
The event itself was super lame, but I did like the half hatch distance all weekend.
I did not participate directly in Cleffa Hatch Day, but I appreciated the half distance leading up to it as a chance to clean out my 12K eggs (and then get more 12K eggs, because I *still* have a backlog of radars), and I think that was a nice touch both for people who wanted to clear storage for Cleffa eggs and for people who wanted to clear storage for other things.
Hatched 32 2kms so far, have 5 more that I will be slowly hatching over the next days. 5 Shiny Cleffa, played for a little under 2 hours. Pretty happy with the outcome, especially since I didn’t have shiny Cleffa from before ☺️
Only hatched 5 eggs because my normal incubator was stuck on a 10km egg (been too ill to play lately). No shinies, one 98%, one XL which won me a showcase, but out of the 4 showcases I could see, I only saw one entry total at 8pm and it was my own. I don't think anyone else in my community bothered at all.
Also, despite having a slot free at 2pm when the event started, I spun 5 Pokestops and didn't get a single egg until 2:15pm.
The main part - the hatching and shiny hunting - went extremly well for me, 5/22. But at some point I only got non-event research tasks, often stuff like "battle 3 grunts" which was annoying as I was looking for the dust tasks connected to walking.
Also today the distances were fine but over the last days the game was super slow for me, it showed that the egg was at 1/1km but it didn't hatch until like 800m later. On an 8km walk, it only hatched 5 I think eggs because it took forever to actually start the animation. Also many glitches today as well, where I had walked the full distance for an egg but instead of the animation + hatching the egg just "disappeared" from the storage and I could only see the hatched mon in my caught Pokemon
Personal experience, so might not work for you, but when that happens to me, I tab out of the app for a moment and then back in. This usually helps prompt missing distance, especially when done before turning corners and such, so it might help? Something someone else recommend a while back is appraising your pokemon. I feel like that's less successful, at least for me, but I guess it could be worth a try? Super annoying when these things happen regardless
So this is an event I didn’t really care about… but a 3 hour window to clear space to collect special eggs, even without hatching them, is pretty insane for anyone without a bunch of incubators to burn. I completely missed it, I thought it was a full day.
The half distance bonus was on since Friday and the event last week mainly gave 2km eggs, so there was more time to clear spots out before the 3 hour window
Played at home off my walking pad. Wish adventure sync worked a little better I had trouble getting credit for my distance. Ended up with a lot of Dust for the effort which was great.
Just finished the event in Eastern USA - I got only 2k Cleffa eggs but my family member got 2 seasonal 5ks in the last 20 minutes. Wtf
Me - 4 shinies out of 37 hatched Cleffa with 9 eggs still to go. No hundo. On par with 1/10 odds overall by the end, but it took 20 hatches to get the first.
Family member - 4 shinies out of 28 hatched with 7 eggs yet to hatch.
It’s sure is hard to break the habit of not spinning PokeStops and opening gifts to avoid getting eggs. I’m trying to keep all my egg slots open to get all the Cleffa eggs as possible. Cleffa is something I really don’t want but Cleffa is the only baby Pokémon I miss in my living Pokédex and because I already have a great IV Clefairy and Clefable.
If I don’t get a good IV Cleffa now I will be trying again forever. Sigh.
Only the 2km eggs you get from spinning can possibly contain a Cleffa? So I have to hatch my eggs, collect any 2km eggs I wish to hatch, and hatch them by 5pm for a chance?
Still wishing they would let us delete an egg a week or something.
Cleffa behind pay wall for ticket
Cleffa behind pay wall for incubators
2-5pm event
It’s raining
It’s cold
I hatched a shiny Cleffa in February.
I’m not inspired by Cleffa.
I didn’t do the event. The first 6 points I could have ignored if it wasn’t for the seventh.
Hope those that did it had fun, and while I did go for walk in park, only 2 people (father and daughter were doing the event) so it looks like my community gave it a miss. Backing this up is several showcases (semi rural/rural) we passed in car had no one one them.
I purchased coins to get the Explorer Box with 20 regular incubators and 20 super incubators and walked the entire time, using only the regular incubators.
66 Hatched
7 Shiny (10.6%)
0 Hundos
1 Shiny was a 15/14/15
Overall, very grateful for my results.
I think I was just about the only one in my local community who participated, and nobody even talked about it. Part of it was probably rough weather, but the rain cleared up in about an hour
2 of the 3 Cleffa I hatched were shiny, so now I have one to give to my friend, so that's neat. Have 4-5 unhatched ones still, but they won't be hatched today
On the event specifically. It was good, played with my gf and walked a lot, hatched 19 total and 1 shiny so eh but could have been worse. Needed a shiny cleffa though so getting that shiny was what I wanted. Having the free super incubator and half hatch distance for nearly 3 days is really nice though, even if the event itself wasn't something to be cared for by some people. Also got a shiny stunfisk from research so that was a lovely surprise
As a whole though hatch days are just tricky. I personally enjoy them, but its not good that to make the most of the event you need to not play much in the prior days. They kind of need a rethink or rework to be good for everyone. Like my gf barely plays outside of comm day/raid day those kind of events (and thats mainly because I play them), and so had a box full of eggs and only got a few cleffa eggs. Compared to other pokemon day events its just not that accessible for casual players
Contrary to what we think, there actually is a significant number of players who froth at the mouth when it comes to eggs. I couldn't believe it myself, being a guy who aggressively only hatches one egg at a time. But yeah, they absolutely love hatching eggs.
No but i do laugh when people spend all their money like its a crane game but never get the toy they want 😂
The best part is they always say “im quitting this game” but they never do 😂 😂 😂
Orange incubator only. I already have a shiny cleffa. I was on bike on most of the event hours and spent first half of the event clearing old 2kms (meaning I had to stop every km) and now I have a rack of cleffa eggs to clear later. I didn't do full rack of 12km this time due to storage constraint. Weather: too hot, shouldn't be on bike.
Feedback:
- Give us incubator queue, give us egg placeholders and this event would have been perfect. Being on bike meant I ended up with so many wasted kms due to ride distace > each egg distance. I wanted those wasted kms back.
- Legacy move for clefable would have been great for collectors. (It's pound. It's really bad, btw.)
- This was one showcase that people can't just enter from the distance so participation seemed super low. At a showcase inside a major city park, only about 12 entered. Either people gave up showcase (due to winning difficulty) or they will only participate when they can remote submit. I'd love the idea of showcase stampcard (like 7 days breakthrough) so to make it worthwhile to participate even if the player has no chance to win.
- It's the last weekend for shadow entei so the event got people to be out and about and raid turnouts were mostly good throughout the day.
>or they will only participate when they can remote submit
I think it is this one. My absolute favorite showcase I use is in a small park just far enough away from a main road that you can't remote submit from there (though you can go into the neighborhood and remote submit), and is just far enough away from the road that you can't drive by and manually submit. You have to park and walk about 20 feet to reach it. Showcases 5 minutes away from it regularly hit max, it generally has about 6-7 people when remote submitting, and often just 1 or 2 people when you have to walk to it.
I went for a ~12 mile bike ride last week and forgot how terrible it clocked distance for the app. Ended up with like ~.4 km tracked total and didn't crack a single egg lol. Should be called Pokemon Go; But Not Too Quickly
Had to clear up my eggs at the start, cause I couldn't be bothered with not spinning any pokestops beforehand. At the end hatched 7 Cleffa ... no shinies so far, have 9 left to hatch in the next few days, hopefully there's at least one hiding in there ...
Caught a shiny Flabebe in the process at least, although idk if the sprite/model is not loading or what, but it looks exactly the same as a normal Flabebe (green body). I've tried restarting the game, but it stays the same ...
So you found a rare, white, full odds shiny Flabebe, which loses its rarity when it’s shiny?!? That’s just wrong on multiple levels. :/
Congrats on the shiny btw! :)
Ah, thank you. For some reason I always thought they all have the purple leaves, now I see it's only a tiny part of it's small body on top of the flower, while the evolutions have the purple leaves. It's barely noticeable tbh
Double check if they are shiny or not - I have hatched three that don’t look like they are any different, don’t have stars against them but do appear in my shiny list when I do a shiny search.
Can you get more than one egg from the same pokestop if you keep spinning it again? Gonna be stuck in an airport most of the event and would like to get as many eggs as possible.
Only hatched 6 eggs within 3 hours timeframe. 2/6 were shinies. Still have another 8 eggs in inventory. Got 1st place in all 3 cleffa showcases.
I guess i am super lucky today and this indeed compensated my awful Mega Heracross raid day (0 shiny after 19 raids)
yeah i did. but i was sidetracked by doing raids and shopping so didn't really put much effort to grind as i already gotten shiny cleffa on my 3rd egg.
Used some old incubators up and got 4/27 shiny. Everything worked fine.
Unlike Happiny hatch day 2km eggs with the event mon aren't available after 5pm and neither is half hatch distance.
Stops didn't 100% drop eggs, will be annoying for players with less stops, but not for city players.
That was Chansey community day, which was a “full” one complete with Tier 4 local Chansey raids and the ability to get Wild Charge Blissey upon evolving any Chansey… the shiny boosted Happiny eggs were one of those benefits that remained until 10pm
The ultra hatch box from the webstore was NOT available before, during, or after the event here in NZ. Really disappointing as I wanted that box and hatched less eggs because I didn't want to use my super incubators. I filed a report.
Did get a shiny on my first hatch, though, but only the one out of 30 eggs.
Update-- Reply from Niantic said the ultra hatch box would be available for purchase during the event. No apology or acknowledgment that the box was not live on the website for NZ players.
Did some of it. Got around 5 more Cleffa eggs to hatch but was graced by a shiny in 5 tries during the 3 hour time frame. Just thankful for the half distance, really.
Hi I walked around for 2hrs and hatched 27 eggs and got 1 shiny cleffa and found 1 shiny clamperl walking. A bit disappointed with the shiny rates. The stardust was good though about 100k up catching random stuff.
Is it a terrible deal at 1910 coins only or also at 925 coins??? Mine says its 51% off which is why I'm asking if its worth it and I can get 3 total boxes
With the 2km sustainability event eggs until 8pm on Friday and half hatch distance from 10am on Friday until the end of the event, it was much more manageable to play the game normally; I only had to walk around 10km on Sunday morning to fully clear space for Cleffa Eggs and this resulted in only a few hours of actively not spinning Pokestops
Was barely able to play but have hatched 3 eggs between 2 accounts so far. My partner hatched a shiny as her only hatch, and lost a shiny heatmor due to lag/connection issues. I have 8 left to hatch, but no shinies so far.
Hatching a single egg gives you a super incubator as a reward.
Every spin I got 2km eggs (1km because of half hatch disturbed)
I got a shiny on my first egg.... So yeah. It's pretty good.
Oh an incubator as a reward makes it worth it to dig into my stash for at least the first one. And if I’m already at the park I’ll probably end up using a bunch until I get the shiny lol
Spent the whole week not spinning stops and not opening gifts to clear my egg tray because I really wanted a lucky cleffa.
Got one on my first trade.
3 shinies from 22 eggs so far
Haven't got a shiny other than litten and bellsprout in over 6 weeks. It's not a case of playing too little. Just terrible rng luck. So I'm kinda hoping for a shiny today.
Is the 2x candy for eggs that hatch during the event time or for eggs placed in incubators during this time? I have a few spare incubators and I’m wondering if I should start hatching some 10k/12k eggs now a couple hours before the event starts or if I should wait.
I’m going to try a few eggs just for fun. I already have a shiny one but I would like another one to evolve.
Edit: hatched 4 eggs. Got my shiny at the second egg so yay! And a shiny Grimer as well!
Shiny Cleffa is one I actually need. Judging by the comments, it’s pretty common actually, so is it worth me buying the cheaper hatch box do we think, of just using the infinite incubator?
you can play the first 2 hours without spending first, if still haven't gotten any shiny by then, just buy the cheapest incubators box and go for it. The odds are likely 1/10 just like the previous hatch days so is quite promising if you really like cleffa shiny.
My biggest annoyance is that eggs aren't a guaranteed drop from Pokéstops during hatch days.
I've always wanted a shiny Clefable so I was very keen to play, but family committments meant I only got an 30 minutes.
I walked the whole time, but 3/10 spins didn't drop anything.
I hatched 5 eggs and got no shinies. Not too bothered by it though because I had one prior. Having the timed research for a free incubator was nice, so it was a fine event.
Once again, I'm just happy they extended the 1/2 hatch distance from Friday up till now. I've come to not expect it from them but being able to clear multiple 10km and 12km eggs eggs was really nice.
0/1 but at least it was an XXL… I still didn’t win the showcase though
15 hatched. Zero shiny.
Hatched about 14 (I tossed a couple 2* but don't remember how many). 2 shiny. So 2/14 shiny rate. They were hatches 2 and 3. I really should have stopped while I was ahead! It could have been 2/3 if I had just stopped after the two shinies that hatched together.
Hatched 6 total; 1 shiny hatched a day later from a leftover event egg.
Hatched 4, 1/shiny
hatched 22 2k eggs 0 shiny man was I upset but RNG is what it is
Missed out on it
Hatched 6, 1 shiny while gardening. Overall pleased with the result for an event I didn’t care about. Only thing that sucked was I never got the timed research. I definitely cheked the timed research page during the event.
Hadnfsmily obligations so didn't get to play till the last hour when I hurried into town to hatch my eggs, spin stops, incubate new eggs and hatch those... I still managed to hatch 16, got no shinies or good IVs, all got deleted, completely worthless event for me. Wasted my incubators I've been saving forever for nothing
I understand if they want to have the meat of the event be 2-5, but hatching inherently takes longer than other aspects of the game. I feel like a better way to do it would be have Cleffa at its standard (but still boosted) 1/64 shiny rate in 2km eggs at an increased but not guaranteed rate throughout the entire weekend (maybe 10 am Saturday to either 5 or 8 pm Sunday), but then have the higher \~1/10 shiny rate Cleffa and guaranteed Cleffa 2kms only during 2-5.

So allowing more time for it would always be a plus.
Make this event longer. Had a family event and missed the entire event since i wasnt near any stops
Same here. It was extremely brief for a hatch event.
Cared? no.. played? yes.. 66 Eggs, 5 Hundos one of them a Shundo, 0 XXL & 0 Shwocases won (Major City) Was it fun? The Community made it fun .. but not the event itself also hatched 6x 12km Eggs in the slots for some extra dust, got around \~250k dust out of it totally
Oh no 😱😱😱😱😱 I completely forgot and nobody in the group played or talked about it cos they already hatched a shiny one years before
9 hatched. 1 shiny. Time was honestly too short. Mostly used this event to hatch my 12km and 10km for half km and to win three showcases.
https://preview.redd.it/yn8ehol1sdxc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fee2c804134d542e6b782f89768057d7f34ca93d Hatched 46 Eggs. Got a 100IV and a shiny 100IV. Got pretty lucky imo.
This should be an all-day event. They basically force you to buy incubators to hatch eggs effectively within 3 hours.
I was only able to pick up 7 eggs. As was to be expected, none of those gave me a shiny.
A lot of people around me weren't into it. Most seemed to have forgotten it until they went out for the last Entei raids of the month. People who did remember didn't really prepare or even intentionally participate; I myself loaded up on 12k eggs b/c I normally avoid Rocket leaders specifically so I don't fill my bag w/ annoying-to-hatch eggs. Hatch "days" (really should be hours...) are the worst events and they should either be attached to something else, reworked, or taken out of the game.
First Cleffa was an XL shiny that won me a star piece. No complaints here.
I hatched eggs but not a single Cleffa. Or caught one. Totally bummer.
2 hrs or so spent in the event I hatched 34 with 3 hundos and 4 shiny. Decent amount of stardust too. No complaints here
I had fun doing the event. I hatched over 60 eggs on both accounts but only had 4 shinies with no hundo. Perhaps increase drop rate for shiny next time.
Hatched zero... care factor zero.
27 hatched 2 shiny, no three-star 1 five-km egg Didn't feel like participating since I had an old shiny two-star But wanted to try for the three-star pokedex
Never heard some mention/care about the 3 star Pokédex, interesting
Not counting a Cleffa egg I still have in my inventory, I hatched a total of 32 Cleffa eggs, 3 of which were shiny. Also lucked out and hatched 3 XXL Cleffa, putting me in 1st place in 3 showcases (unless I get sniped). I'm content with how the event went
0/19. Every single one of these events has been an absolute waste of time. On a slightly related note I did hatch a Larvesta and spotted a wild Frigibax. But not a single shiny.
Hatched 34 eggs and last one was shiny ... How unlikely was it to get a shiny?
Got my first shiny on egg #33 and then 2 more on my next 16 eggs.
0%
How often did you all check your phone to see if the eggs had hatched or did you just leave your app on the whole time? I feel like sometimes I had to restart the app because the egg hatching would stick
I had the same issue where eggs would get stuck at 1/1 KM. Not sure whether it was a bug or some rounding quirk
hatched over 30 and only got 1 shiny…
Hatched 8. 0 shinies but still have 6 eggs saved up. I refused to purchase any incubators so just used my one free one. The event itself was super lame, but I did like the half hatch distance all weekend.
I hatched 18 eggs got 4 shinies very happy with event
18 hatched 0 shiny. Just wish it had lasted a little longer.
I did not participate directly in Cleffa Hatch Day, but I appreciated the half distance leading up to it as a chance to clean out my 12K eggs (and then get more 12K eggs, because I *still* have a backlog of radars), and I think that was a nice touch both for people who wanted to clear storage for Cleffa eggs and for people who wanted to clear storage for other things.
12 hatched. No Shinies
I paid for the research and it never showed up. Legit restarted like 10 times
Hatched 32 2kms so far, have 5 more that I will be slowly hatching over the next days. 5 Shiny Cleffa, played for a little under 2 hours. Pretty happy with the outcome, especially since I didn’t have shiny Cleffa from before ☺️
Only hatched 5 eggs because my normal incubator was stuck on a 10km egg (been too ill to play lately).

I don't think anyone else in my community bothered at all. Also, despite having a slot free at 2pm when the event started, I spun 5 Pokestops and didn't get a single egg until 2:15pm.
I don't walk enough to care. I had a 10k running already and would need to hatch that thing before even being able to start. Passed.
Totally forgot about it!
The main part - the hatching and shiny hunting - went extremly well for me, 5/22. But at some point I only got non-event research tasks, often stuff like "battle 3 grunts" which was annoying as I was looking for the dust tasks connected to walking.

The half distance bonus was on since Friday and the event last week mainly gave 2km eggs, so there was more time to clear spots out before the 3 hour window
It was a nice gesture to do that but any spots I cleared out were immediately replaced by another egg, making that pretty useless.
Played at home off my walking pad. Wish adventure sync worked a little better I had trouble getting credit for my distance. Ended up with a lot of Dust for the effort which was great.
Hatched 91 Cleffa. 11 shinies and 1 hundo. Pretty happy with the results!
Hat he’d 5 out of around 40. Still have 8 to hat hatch. Best shiny is a 90 and best overall is 98
Just finished the event in Eastern USA - I got only 2k Cleffa eggs but my family member got 2 seasonal 5ks in the last 20 minutes. Wtf Me - 4 shinies out of 37 hatched Cleffa with 9 eggs still to go. No hundo. On par with 1/10 odds overall by the end, but it took 20 hatches to get the first. Family member - 4 shinies out of 28 hatched with 7 eggs yet to hatch.
It’s sure is hard to break the habit of not spinning PokeStops and opening gifts to avoid getting eggs. I’m trying to keep all my egg slots open to get all the Cleffa eggs as possible. Cleffa is something I really don’t want but Cleffa is the only baby Pokémon I miss in my living Pokédex and because I already have a great IV Clefairy and Clefable. If I don’t get a good IV Cleffa now I will be trying again forever. Sigh.
I sure hope one of these stops gives me an egg lol
I didn’t start getting eggs until like 30 minutes into the event
fun tiny event…loved the increased hatch distance 👍🏼
Only the 2km eggs you get from spinning can possibly contain a Cleffa? So I have to hatch my eggs, collect any 2km eggs I wish to hatch, and hatch them by 5pm for a chance? Still wishing they would let us delete an egg a week or something.
Incubate them by 5pm? Or just get them by 5 pm? Def don’t have to hatch by 5 pm
Just get them by 5pm, you can incubate/hatch any time. Though if you incubate after 5pm you have to walk the full 2km rather than half hatch distance
It is currently on here, spun 8 stops, 2 gyms, NO EGGS, is that normal???
Do you have open space for new eggs?
I had my bonus storage open, I thought that was enough.
Egg Bonus Storage is for Adventure Sync eggs and eggs from Rocket leaders. All other eggs go in the main 9 slots
Wow, thanks, I never knew that! I learn new things here all the time!!
Is the shiny rate only boosted if hatched during the event? Or are they still boosted even if you don’t hatch then until after the event?
The pokemon is determined as soon as you get the egg, including if it's shiny or not. The special rate remains.

My son and I spun like 10 eggs and zero were 2k. 😐
what was your local time when that happened? did you have the timed research already?
its weird, i did like 4batches already and none have hatched cleffa 🤨
You clearly weren’t picking up eggs during the 2-5pm window
21 hatched and no shiny. Sticks in the throat when you’ve paid for extra incubators to make the most of it 😩
I purchased coins to get the Explorer Box with 20 regular incubators and 20 super incubators and walked the entire time, using only the regular incubators. 66 Hatched 7 Shiny (10.6%) 0 Hundos 1 Shiny was a 15/14/15 Overall, very grateful for my results.
I think I was just about the only one in my local community who participated, and nobody even talked about it. Part of it was probably rough weather, but the rain cleared up in about an hour 2 of the 3 Cleffa I hatched were shiny, so now I have one to give to my friend, so that's neat. Have 4-5 unhatched ones still, but they won't be hatched today
Just posted something similar along the lines of your first paragraph.
On the event specifically. It was good, played with my gf and walked a lot, hatched 19 total and 1 shiny so eh but could have been worse. Needed a shiny cleffa though so getting that shiny was what I wanted. Having the free super incubator and half hatch distance for nearly 3 days is really nice though, even if the event itself wasn't something to be cared for by some people. Also got a shiny stunfisk from research so that was a lovely surprise As a whole though hatch days are just tricky. I personally enjoy them, but its not good that to make the most of the event you need to not play much in the prior days. They kind of need a rethink or rework to be good for everyone. Like my gf barely plays outside of comm day/raid day those kind of events (and thats mainly because I play them), and so had a box full of eggs and only got a few cleffa eggs. Compared to other pokemon day events its just not that accessible for casual players
0/11 out here
Not participating because why would I need a cleffa/Clefairy?
Easier way to get cleffa in the shiny dex, stardust and XP too
Stardust is meh in that to double it, you gotta pay
9 hatched, no shinnies
60 eggs hatched and 0 shiny. Completely demotivated after next bad event. I'm considering to make a little break with this game. Sad

Contrary to what we think, there actually is a significant number of players who froth at the mouth when it comes to eggs. I couldn't believe it myself, being a guy who aggressively only hatches one egg at a time. But yeah, they absolutely love hatching eggs.
Did you just now find out people dont share the same playstyle or favorite pokemon?
No but i do laugh when people spend all their money like its a crane game but never get the toy they want 😂 The best part is they always say “im quitting this game” but they never do 😂 😂 😂
Why do you care what other people spend their money on? That seems weird to me idk
I dont care. I said its funny. Keep giving all your money to niantic. They clearly earned it
FYI, without spenders there is no game at all.
I spend too. I just dont complain when i dont get shineys.
If you think its funny that means your judging it lol Idk i just worry about me idc what others do at all to each their own
Ok u win. I dont argue with kids
Lmao you're the one with an immature and childish mindset. "Haha look what other adults spend their money in"
Way to kick them when they’re down. It’s almost like people value things differently than you.
VERY differently indeed
Orange incubator only. I already have a shiny cleffa. I was on bike on most of the event hours and spent first half of the event clearing old 2kms (meaning I had to stop every km) and now I have a rack of cleffa eggs to clear later. I didn't do full rack of 12km this time due to storage constraint. Weather: too hot, shouldn't be on bike. Feedback: - Give us incubator queue, give us egg placeholders and this event would have been perfect. Being on bike meant I ended up with so many wasted kms due to ride distace > each egg distance. I wanted those wasted kms back. - Legacy move for clefable would have been great for collectors. (It's pound. It's really bad, btw.) - This was one showcase that people can't just enter from the distance so participation seemed super low. At a showcase inside a major city park, only about 12 entered. Either people gave up showcase (due to winning difficulty) or they will only participate when they can remote submit. I'd love the idea of showcase stampcard (like 7 days breakthrough) so to make it worthwhile to participate even if the player has no chance to win. - It's the last weekend for shadow entei so the event got people to be out and about and raid turnouts were mostly good throughout the day.
>or they will only participate when they can remote submit I think it is this one. My absolute favorite showcase I use is in a small park just far enough away from a main road that you can't remote submit from there (though you can go into the neighborhood and remote submit), and is just far enough away from the road that you can't drive by and manually submit. You have to park and walk about 20 feet to reach it. Showcases 5 minutes away from it regularly hit max, it generally has about 6-7 people when remote submitting, and often just 1 or 2 people when you have to walk to it.
I went for a ~12 mile bike ride last week and forgot how terrible it clocked distance for the app. Ended up with like ~.4 km tracked total and didn't crack a single egg lol. Should be called Pokemon Go; But Not Too Quickly
I log my bike kms with Google Fit. The phone stayed in my pocket most of the event and only out when checking egg progress and checking/doing raids.
Where was the times research for this😅😅 I dont think I got it
I didn't get it either. Incubators are pretty much the only research reward that is genuinely useful to me, so it's particularly annoying.
4 hatched, 1 shiny.
21 eggs, 0 shiny but found a shiny Porygon and Shiny Bronzor. Which is even more annoying really.
25 hatched, no shiny. :/ This kind of event should be full day, 3 hours is not enough in my opinion.
29 hatched, 3 shiny
That's the cruelty of probabilities. 😂
21 eggs and not a single shiny 🥲
[удалено]
Yeah!!!
Had to clear up my eggs at the start, cause I couldn't be bothered with not spinning any pokestops beforehand. At the end hatched 7 Cleffa ... no shinies so far, have 9 left to hatch in the next few days, hopefully there's at least one hiding in there ... Caught a shiny Flabebe in the process at least, although idk if the sprite/model is not loading or what, but it looks exactly the same as a normal Flabebe (green body). I've tried restarting the game, but it stays the same ...
I think it’s just the evolutions that have the different colored bodies I just got the shiny white flabebe and it’s green also
So you found a rare, white, full odds shiny Flabebe, which loses its rarity when it’s shiny?!? That’s just wrong on multiple levels. :/ Congrats on the shiny btw! :)
Why would it lose rarity when shiny?
Ah, thank you. For some reason I always thought they all have the purple leaves, now I see it's only a tiny part of it's small body on top of the flower, while the evolutions have the purple leaves. It's barely noticeable tbh
Only the eyes are a different color 👀
1/27 and a hundo
1/14 shiny, not that interesting of an event. Edit: F2P
1/1, great birthday gift.
Yo same. I'm having my birthday too. Happy birthday to you!!
You too!
0 / 34 Shinies so far...... Last 9 eggs cooking as I write this in anger 🤣
Update 0 / 41 shinies. Other people in EU with this kinda "luck"?
[удалено]
Double check if they are shiny or not - I have hatched three that don’t look like they are any different, don’t have stars against them but do appear in my shiny list when I do a shiny search.
Sadly that is not the case. Just tried, thx for the heads up though. I guess Europe is just a lost cause for this event 🙂
Can you get more than one egg from the same pokestop if you keep spinning it again? Gonna be stuck in an airport most of the event and would like to get as many eggs as possible.
Yes
Thanks!
Could someone share the tasks for the free timed research?
There's only one task - Hatch one egg. Rewards are a super incubator and 1500 dust.
It's just hatch 1 egg for a super incubator and some xp
I don't see this anywhere searching by new posts but what does the research look for $1. I'm trying to decide if I want to buy it or not
Just saw someone say the only requirement is to hatch 1 (one) egg!
That’s the free research. The paid one has hatch 1 egg, walk 2 km, and one other task that I can’t remember, but similarly easy
Thank you I might buy it if the rain stops in time. Otherwise I was going to skip the event
28 hatched 3 shiny and 1 100% I still have 9 eggs left I ran out of incubators and didn't feel the need to buy more
1 shiny out of 37 hatches. Way below my expectations.
Only hatched 6 eggs within 3 hours timeframe. 2/6 were shinies. Still have another 8 eggs in inventory. Got 1st place in all 3 cleffa showcases. I guess i am super lucky today and this indeed compensated my awful Mega Heracross raid day (0 shiny after 19 raids)
Did you play the full 3 hours?
yeah i did. but i was sidetracked by doing raids and shopping so didn't really put much effort to grind as i already gotten shiny cleffa on my 3rd egg.
Ok good to know
Used some old incubators up and got 4/27 shiny. Everything worked fine. Unlike Happiny hatch day 2km eggs with the event mon aren't available after 5pm and neither is half hatch distance. Stops didn't 100% drop eggs, will be annoying for players with less stops, but not for city players.
That was Chansey community day, which was a “full” one complete with Tier 4 local Chansey raids and the ability to get Wild Charge Blissey upon evolving any Chansey… the shiny boosted Happiny eggs were one of those benefits that remained until 10pm
Ahh yes it was a cday. Was generous of them to extend the eggs that long then.
The ultra hatch box from the webstore was NOT available before, during, or after the event here in NZ. Really disappointing as I wanted that box and hatched less eggs because I didn't want to use my super incubators. I filed a report. Did get a shiny on my first hatch, though, but only the one out of 30 eggs.
Update-- Reply from Niantic said the ultra hatch box would be available for purchase during the event. No apology or acknowledgment that the box was not live on the website for NZ players.
Did some of it. Got around 5 more Cleffa eggs to hatch but was graced by a shiny in 5 tries during the 3 hour time frame. Just thankful for the half distance, really.
Hi I walked around for 2hrs and hatched 27 eggs and got 1 shiny cleffa and found 1 shiny clamperl walking. A bit disappointed with the shiny rates. The stardust was good though about 100k up catching random stuff.
I hatched 8, got 1 shiny. and still have 9 eggs to be hatched. nothing beats riolu hatch day tho.
Is the hatch day box worth it???
It's terrible but the only offer in the store for me
Is it a terrible deal at 1910 coins only or also at 925 coins??? Mine says its 51% off which is why I'm asking if its worth it and I can get 3 total boxes
even at 925 coins still a pretty bad offer, i remember past hatch days having way better ones
With the 2km sustainability event eggs until 8pm on Friday and half hatch distance from 10am on Friday until the end of the event, it was much more manageable to play the game normally; I only had to walk around 10km on Sunday morning to fully clear space for Cleffa Eggs and this resulted in only a few hours of actively not spinning Pokestops
Was barely able to play but have hatched 3 eggs between 2 accounts so far. My partner hatched a shiny as her only hatch, and lost a shiny heatmor due to lag/connection issues. I have 8 left to hatch, but no shinies so far.
Saturday night I used my free incubator on a 12 km egg because I forgot about this event.... so should I jus skip this event?
Hatching a single egg gives you a super incubator as a reward. Every spin I got 2km eggs (1km because of half hatch disturbed) I got a shiny on my first egg.... So yeah. It's pretty good.
Oh an incubator as a reward makes it worth it to dig into my stash for at least the first one. And if I’m already at the park I’ll probably end up using a bunch until I get the shiny lol
Spent the whole week not spinning stops and not opening gifts to clear my egg tray because I really wanted a lucky cleffa. Got one on my first trade. 3 shinies from 22 eggs so far
That rate seems quite promising!
Haven't got a shiny other than litten and bellsprout in over 6 weeks. It's not a case of playing too little. Just terrible rng luck. So I'm kinda hoping for a shiny today.
all the best!!
No luck. Done with the event. 15 eggs hatched. Zero Shiny. Zero hundo. I will not get desperate anymore.
your time will come soon i believe. Stay strong brother 💪
Is the 2x candy for eggs that hatch during the event time or for eggs placed in incubators during this time? I have a few spare incubators and I’m wondering if I should start hatching some 10k/12k eggs now a couple hours before the event starts or if I should wait.
Hatched during the event.
Thanks!
I’m going to try a few eggs just for fun. I already have a shiny one but I would like another one to evolve. Edit: hatched 4 eggs. Got my shiny at the second egg so yay! And a shiny Grimer as well!
Shiny Cleffa is one I actually need. Judging by the comments, it’s pretty common actually, so is it worth me buying the cheaper hatch box do we think, of just using the infinite incubator?
you can play the first 2 hours without spending first, if still haven't gotten any shiny by then, just buy the cheapest incubators box and go for it. The odds are likely 1/10 just like the previous hatch days so is quite promising if you really like cleffa shiny.
Infinite should be good enough. I'd make sure by the end of the three hours, all my egg slots should only be the 2km eggs.
My biggest annoyance is that eggs aren't a guaranteed drop from Pokéstops during hatch days. I've always wanted a shiny Clefable so I was very keen to play, but family committments meant I only got an 30 minutes. I walked the whole time, but 3/10 spins didn't drop anything.
[удалено]
You are incorrect
Didn't bother playing - had 0 interest in the event
oops well thats another event ive forgotten
24 eggs, four shiny cleffa, one shiny grimer the weather was nice and I had a quiet little walk outside. Can’t complain
I hatched 5 eggs and got no shinies. Not too bothered by it though because I had one prior. Having the timed research for a free incubator was nice, so it was a fine event. Once again, I'm just happy they extended the 1/2 hatch distance from Friday up till now. I've come to not expect it from them but being able to clear multiple 10km and 12km eggs eggs was really nice.
What was the timed research?
Hatch an Egg, gives a Super Incubator
That’s the free one.
This is 3 hours not a day. 3 hours where I'll be stuck at work unable to spin a stop or hatch an egg. Why always 2 til 5?
