Get ready, Trainers! The Azurill Hatch Day event is hatching soon in Pokémon GO, offering a rare chance to fill your Pokédex with the adorable Azurill-and its shiny form-straight from 2 km eggs. With triple-hour excitement on September 30, 2023, from 2 to 5 p.m. local time, expect boosted hatch rates, double Stardust and Candy, exclusive research tasks, and special bundles to power up your incubators. Don’t miss this egg-citing opportunity to catch, evolve, and shine with Azurill!
How to get Shiny Azurill, Marill, and Azumarill
During the Azurill Hatch Day event in Pokémon GO, which runs for three hours on September 30, 2023, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time, Azurill will hatch much more frequently from 2 km Eggs, and the chances of hatching a Shiny Azurill are significantly increased. To get a Shiny Azurill, players should stock up on 2 km Eggs and use Incubators to hatch as many as possible while actively traveling to cover the distance. Once you have a Shiny Azurill, you can evolve it into Shiny Marill using 25 Azurill Candies, and then evolve Shiny Marill into Shiny Azumarill with an additional 25 candies. The event also offers bonuses like doubled Candy and Stardust from hatching, plus event-exclusive Timed Research tasks that reward a Super Incubator to help hatch eggs faster.
If you’re hunting for a shiny, your best bet is to hatch as many eggs as possible. You’ll want to find a nice place where you can walk and spin a ton of PokéStops. You’ll get eggs for spinning stops, so you’ll want to have a good supply of stops to replenish your eggs.
Azurill does have an increased shiny chance to hatch from eggs and they’ll hatch from meager 2 km eggs, meaning you should be able to hatch a ton of eggs if you just keep walking.
Once you hopefully nab your Azurill, you can evolve it using Marill Candy to get the other shinies.
Pokémon Go Azurill Hatch Day Timed Research
The Azurill Hatch Day Timed Research in Pokémon Go is a special event-exclusive research task available during the Azurill Hatch Day event on September 30, 2023, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM local time. This Timed Research is free to access and rewards players with a Super Incubator and XP upon completion. The main task involves hatching an egg, and players must complete the research and claim rewards before the event ends at 5:00 PM. This Timed Research complements the event’s increased hatch rates for Azurill from 2 km eggs and the boosted chances of hatching a Shiny Azurill, making it a valuable opportunity for trainers to enhance their gameplay and collection.
During the event period, you’ll have access to this Timed Research set.

Pokémon Go Azurill Hatch Day event Field Research

How can I maximize my chances of hatching a Shiny Azurill during Hatch Day
To maximize your chances of hatching a Shiny Azurill during the Hatch Day event in Pokémon GO, follow these key strategies:
-
Hatch 2 km eggs exclusively during the event hours (2 to 5 p.m. local time on September 30, 2023), as only eggs obtained during this window have boosted shiny odds for Azurill.
-
Clear your egg storage before the event and avoid spinning PokéStops to collect new 2 km eggs until the event starts, ensuring all eggs you hatch have the increased shiny chance.
-
Accumulate and use multiple Incubators, including the free Super Incubator rewarded from event-exclusive Timed Research, to hatch eggs faster and increase the total number of eggs hatched during the event.
-
Choose a location with many PokéStops to quickly collect numerous 2 km eggs and maximize your hatching opportunities.
-
Take advantage of event bonuses such as double Candy and double Stardust from hatching eggs to power up your shiny Azurill and its evolutions faster if you hatch one.
By focusing on these tactics-collecting fresh 2 km eggs during the event, using plenty of incubators, and hatching as many eggs as possible-you improve your odds significantly of encountering a Shiny Azurill.
How many Incubators should I use to increase my Shiny Azurill chances during Hatch Day
To increase your chances of hatching a Shiny Azurill during the Hatch Day event, it is recommended to use multiple Incubators simultaneously to hatch as many 2 km eggs as possible within the limited three-hour event window. Since Azurill hatches from 2 km eggs with boosted shiny odds only if those eggs are obtained during the event, having several Incubators ready maximizes the number of eggs you can hatch and thus your shiny chances.
Specifically:
-
Use your infinite-use Incubator continuously on 2 km eggs.
-
Supplement with as many limited-use Incubators as you can stockpile-such as the Super Incubator awarded from the event’s Timed Research and any extra Incubators you can purchase or already own.
-
The more Incubators you have active, the more eggs you can hatch simultaneously, increasing your total hatch count and improving your odds of encountering a Shiny Azurill.
While there is no fixed “ideal number,” having 5 or more Incubators active during the event is beneficial if you want to maximize hatching volume. This approach is supported by the availability of special Hatch Day bundles in the Pokémon GO Web Store offering multiple Incubators and by player strategies to hatch as many eggs as possible during the event timeframe.
In summary, use all available Incubators-both infinite and limited-use-to hatch 2 km eggs continuously during the event for the best chance at Shiny Azurill.
