Trainers, Pokémon GO is better with friends. What better way to show appreciation for your friends than with Gifts? Date + Time

• Monday, August 5, 2019, at 1 p.m. PDT to Monday, August 19, 2019, at 1 p.m. PDT

Features

• All Eggs received from Gifts during the event will require only 2 km to hatch and look like 2 km Eggs, but don’t worry, Trainers! The Pokémon that hatch from them will be ones that normally appear in 7 km Eggs, regardless of whether you incubate or hatch them during or after the event.
• For the duration of the event, the number of Gifts you can open daily will increase to 30.
• For the duration of the event, the number of Gifts you can carry in your inventory will increase to 20.
• If you’re lucky, you may hatch a Shiny Bonsly!
