Hatch Day: What's Worth It?

The Hatch Day event on October 17th (11 AM - 5 PM local time) offers a fantastic opportunity to power up your mons. Enjoy half hatching distance and double candy for *all* eggs hatched during this window. Prepare your inventory to make the most of these bonuses!

Don't overlook Manectric. This Electric-type mon is a strong contender for future Mega Evolutions, making it a valuable long-term investment. With a Hundo CP of 2006 (1672 boosted), it's a solid Electric attacker. While its current PvP ranks are GL #655 and UL #609, its Mega form could shake up the meta. Counters: Primal Groudon, Mega Garchomp, Mega Excadrill (Ground-type).

Skarmory, a Steel/Flying type, is a defensive powerhouse, especially in the Great League (GL #586) and Ultra League (UL #506). Its high defense makes it a reliable anchor in many teams. A perfect Skarmory has a Hundo CP of 1807 (1506 boosted). Counters: Mega Charizard Y, Mega Blaziken, Primal Groudon (Fire-type); Zekrom, Mega Ampharos, Shadow Raikou (Electric-type).

Darumaka, an Ice-type mon, offers solid offensive capabilities. While its PvP rank is GL #743, it can be a useful addition for specific matchups. Aim for a Hundo CP of 1236 (1030 boosted) to maximize its potential. Weaknesses: Fire, Fighting, Rock, Steel. Counters: Mega Charizard Y, Mega Blaziken (Fire); Mega Lucario, Crowned Shield Zamazenta (Fighting); Shadow Rhyperior, Mega Diancie (Rock); Origin Dialga, Mega Metagross (Steel).

To maximize the event's double candy and half distance bonuses, ensure your egg inventory is empty *before* the event starts at 11 AM local time. This lets you collect new event eggs with the reduced distance. Don't waste time guessing IVs; use Hundo Hunter to quickly scan your hatched mons and identify perfect IVs for Manectric, Skarmory, and Darumaka.
