So the leaks have been falling in line since the Gen 2 release (We knew this event would happen, but yesterday we got the details before Niantic unveiled it).
I've been sitting on 13000 Pidgey candy and 10000 Rattata candy since the last mass evo I did (during the double exp event in November). My goal this event is to get to 38 in a few days, and then aim for level 39 as best as possible until the end of the week. It's finals week here at uni but hell if I'm not prepared to brave the storm here.
What are you guys doing?
do you have the 1200 pidgey you need to evolve with that many candy? do you have the coins to buy that many lucky eggs? either way, that's crazy.
personally, I'm just hoping that I can get porygon + more mareep / larvitar / dratini during this event, could not care less about exp since I don't have any pidgey to evolve.

Murkrow is my candy dump mon. Cheap XP, but they're not as viable as you'd think for combat.
I also keep stockpiles of Eon and Ursa candies for when I've got the stardust for it. Egg candies, too, but not as many since Vday.

Scratch that, people report getting rare things from 2k eggs. This is too good to be kept true after the events. My fear that they play this incubator roulette is proven true.
... at least I woke up to find a Larvitar besides my bed.

Yeah that's true indeed. But unfortunately, for some miraculous reason, I'm now continuously getting 10km eggs out of nowhere. Hatching them takes literally five times longer than 2km eggs, while the same Pokemon can be in there (?). But that might be bad luck too.
Excuse me? Do you mean you get less candy when you hatch the same mons from 2km eggs that are normally in 10km eggs?
Also, does anyone maybe have a sheet or any info at all on which Pokemon can currently (with this event) hatch from all the different eggs?
EDIT: Found it here.

they never said double, just "more", apparently. "more" happens to be +3 lol
Oh, I thought I was certain they said it was double. My bad.
Oh, I didn't know they changed those as well. The article I provided earlier only covers 2km eggs and 5km eggs. Do you have a list of the changes made to 10km eggs somewhere?
Did you hatch a Porygon from a 10km egg yourself? Or did you read it somewhere?
I had around 300 Pidgey. I've only exhausted ~3000 candy and mass evo'd my way well into 38. Coin-wise I have had a stable income of 100 coins for months now + the special helped heaps. I've wasted 10 out of 25 Lucky Eggs so far.
I can confirm 10K and Porygon. A friend hatched it and got 35 candy. I'm hoping this is a permanent thing bc it deserves to be in 10K tbh.
It's kinda dumb that shit like Dratini is still 10K. The Johto starters being 5Ks are also completely disappointing, considering the Kanto starters are 2K and are mostly superior to the gen 2 ones. We'll see a finalized egg list after the event, hopefully :)
So that means you've had more than 6000 coins in total? If yes, that's freaking amazing. You must own every item in the game, right?
Well, to be fair, not everything is useful depending on game play style. I also has consistent 100 coins income starting from January thanks to be strategic placing and gym team building knowledge (not stacking dragons consecutively to be murdered by ice).
Anyway, I'm yet to find elusive Pillow bear or Lappie from eggs... no luck yet in my eggs as of now. Looks like I'll burn my coins for this. ....
On another note, did Lucky Egg session too, and FOE is still real. Fear of Evolving....
None of my fire puppies got good moves.
At least I got Alakazam? with best set, and an attacker grade Vapie with Hydro Pump, but should forget the rest. I'm salty that other Eevee I expected to have high CP didn't become more Vapies. Will need to find more outstanding vees....
Also, Dratini seems good in 10km. It is commonest 10km egg baby and dragon remains obscenely high CP. The CP difference is real when compared to Vapie and other actually decent defenders like lax.

True that, but at some point you'd have to want to buy every clothing item, right? I mean that's what I would do. At least you don't 'consume' those things. I always wanted that blue long sleeve sweater but it's so darn expensive ;__;
