Egg data collection thread and early results (7:51 EST 4/14)
We are collecting egg hatch data and presenting it in this thread. If you are tracking your hatches please post them here. To make sure that the data is relevant please include the following information:
Egg type-Mon type
Please do not post info about eggs acquired BEFORE the event even if they were hatched after the start.
Early research will be badly skewed towards 2K egg hatch percentages as some folks will hatch many 2K eggs before their 10Ks are hatched. That is OK and the data should even out.
I am gathering hatch data from other sites and already have 200 hatches registered. When I add what is posted in this thread I will make another thread with some early returns on our data. I will start a new thread every time a large quantity of data is added since these threads cannot be pinned or be near the top. Each thread will have an adjusted date in the title.
Thanks for everyone's help!
A couple early tidbits:
So far only gen 2 starters have been reliably reported to hatch from 5K eggs.
Many Pokes are not appearing to hatch during this event so far like Nidorans, Oddish, Goldeen, Ekans, and DIglett. Of course this is very early to draw any conclusions.
So far Lapras, Aerodactyl, Skarmory, and Militank seem to be hatching from 2K eggs with about average rarity compared to other Mons within these eggs. But folks are more likely to report a data set with these mons in it and 200 eggs are too few to draw any real conclusions.
Of the 200 eggs so far recorded 91.41% have been 2k, 5.56% have been 5K, 3.03% have been 10K. Hopefully more hatches will add some clarity to the current drop rates.

Bulbasaur from 2k.
It was a slow day. I have more that are close but I will save them for the next post.
SIDE NOTE My last egg to hatch from eggs gained prior to the event was a 10km Pineco, that came with 34 candies. So eggs gained prior to the event did get increased candy - but this is probably already a known thing.
It has been noted that the pre event eggs get a small amount of increased candy as all eggs do. I guess something is better than nothing.
I think folks will be interested to know that the only reliable reports of 10K eggs hatched that were collected after the event start so far are Dratini, Snorlax, Chansey, Larvitar, and Porygon. If this holds up it appears that during this event any 10K collected has a great chance of being something that has value.
All eggs acquired AFTER the event started: None were in incubators before start of the event.
2K
Ghastly 33 Candy
Machop 8 Candy
Squirtle 10 Candy
JigglyBuff 8 Candy
5K
Cyndaquil 17 Candy
10 K
Gligar 27 Candy
Larvitar 17 Candy
I also hatched a 10K that I received prior to the event just to see how it would turn out.
Dratini 27 Candy
Overall, I'm a little disappointed in the "extra" candy from the eggs. It seems to be only 1 to 3 extra, on average.
Very uneventful for me so far. Hatched five 2km eggs that I got after the event started.
Results: Aipom, Squirtle, Lickitung, Smoochum, Shuckles.
All of them are more or less useless to me, but I guess to a new player it would be pretty decent. For me it was a complete waste of good incubators. I don't normally ever use incubators for 2km eggs, but did so in the excitement of the event. Probably won't do it again.
