Why won't my Egg hatch in Pokemon Go?

Why won't my Egg hatch in Pokemon Go? - Yellow Pikachu Plushmascot

The bar for hatching my egg won't go up. The thing says it is 0.0/5.0, Even though I tried walking around a lot, riding in a car, and riding my bike/scooter. My app is open, but it won't say I've gone anywhere.

What do I do? I have not walked fast, i have actually walked slowly.



Best Answer

As long as your app is working properly, you simply need to walk with the app open. It's more likely to work if you walk outside in a straight line (vs. inside in circles) since it is likely sampling your GPS location every N seconds to determine distance.

Your experience could be caused by the app getting into a semi-frozen state where you can still perform most interactions with the app, but some aspects are broken. Some indications of this I've seen include the animation in the upper-left corner going continuously and images not loading for pokestops.

I'm able to fix by killing the app and restarting. To kill the app in Android, open Settings, select the "Apps" menu, scroll down & select Pokemon Go, then touch "Force Stop". It will warn you that the app may misbehave. Say "Ok", then open the app normally---you should see the Niantic logo initially.

    One lap up and down the path is 254 steps and takes about 18 seconds. The worst case scenario of egg hatching is about 13 minutes of moving up and down the path to hatch a Pokemon that needs 10,240 steps. This number can actually be cut in half by having a Pokemon with the Flame Body ability in the party.

    Answer 2

    Niantic was smart making the game as they made a limt of 24 kilometers an hour, otherwise the distance will not count. Thats probably the reason why it doesn't work in cars. ( otherwise it would be too easy hatching eggs. )

    You would also need to be walking in a long line, as the GPS Niantic uses is not that accurate, also if that continues, try to restart the game as it is still very laggy.

    Answer 3

    Did you put it in the incubator? Most people I know forgot all about the incubator so their eggs won't hatch.
