How to hatch eggs faster in Pokemon Go

As you can see, learning how to hatch eggs in Pokemon Go is actually really easy. And doing it on the regular is equally simple once you get the process down. Here are the steps:

  • Walking. That’s really the only way to do it. Most resources available suggest that you must be traveling at 15MPH or less (give or take) in order for the game to register you as “walking”. Therefore, you can’t cheese it by driving, although biking might work.
  • Many enterprising players have found interesting ways to do it without much additional work. One example was someone placing their phone on a Roomba. Others have recommended using drones (if you have one laying around). Really, any machine, creature, or method of movement will work as long as the movement is enough to trigger the mechanism in the game that tells it that you’re walking.

By and large, most players just take walks or bring their devices along with them during jogs. There are ways to get around the walking thing if you really want to, but the easiest way is to just walk. Some players who have spoofed the game have found alternative methods but we won’t outline those here.

They’re against the rules of the game and may get you banned someday. Leave a comment and tell us any additional tips or tricks that we may have missed! Click here to check out the latest Pokemon Go news!
