As an avid Pokemon GO player with over five years of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that Niantic never disappoints when it comes to keeping their players engaged and excited. The Charged Embers Hatch Day event is yet another testament to this fact! With the chance to encounter Shiny Elekid and Magby, double Candy for hatching Eggs, and exclusive rewards, I can’t wait to spend my Sunday afternoon catching ’em all!

Niantic, the developer, has declared a Charged Embers Hatch Day event for Pokemon GO, featuring Elekid and Magby. Starting December 29th, Pokemon GO players can enjoy this special event as they gear up for the upcoming New Year’s celebration event.

The game known as Pokemon GO transforms the traditional Pokemon experience into an augmented reality adventure on mobile devices. Although it faced criticism in 2024 over modifications to its avatar system, the game still maintains a substantial player community. Niantic ensures player engagement through regular events, updates, and attractive incentives.

On this coming Sunday, December 29th, the Hatch Day event is scheduled. It spans from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., using local time. This special occasion promises a heightened opportunity to come across Shiny versions of adored Pokemon, alongside a range of attractive bonuses and prizes. For the Charged Embers Hatch Day, Elekid and Magby will appear more frequently in Eggs that are 2 kilometers in distance. Additionally, players can take advantage of doubled Candy for hatching these Eggs, as well as a greater chance of receiving such Eggs from PokeStops. Those on the hunt for Shiny Pokemon stand a better chance of hatching Shiny Elekid and Shiny Magby during this event.

When is Pokemon GO’s Charged Embers Hatch Day?

  • Sunday, December 29, 2024, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time

1) In addition to regular tasks, players can participate in Time-limited Research missions, which come with their own set of rewards. For free, players can complete these tasks before the event concludes to receive a Super Incubator and experience points. Those seeking additional perks can opt for a paid Time-limited Research option, gaining extras like Star Pieces, an extra Super Incubator, and increased XP. To enhance the fun during this period, Niantic has added a Charged Embers Hatch Day Extended Bonus from December 27 to December 29. This means that the distance required to hatch Eggs in Pokemon GO Incubators will be reduced by half, making it simpler and quicker to hatch more Eggs in preparation for the main event.

As part of the latest announcement for the New Year’s 2025 event in Pokemon GO, which takes place from December 30 to January 1, players will have an opportunity to earn 2,025 XP for every Pokemon caught with a precise throw during this period. Additionally, exclusive raids will feature Shiny costumed Pokemon as prizes. To top it off, the ongoing collaboration between Pokemon GO and McDonald’s promises a busy schedule filled with engaging activities as Niantic brings 2024 to a close and ushers in 2025.
