Here's what's happening for Cleffa Hatch Day in Pokémon GO:

  • Date and time: Sunday, April 28, 2024, from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. local time
  • Shiny Rate Boosted: Cleffa will be hatching, according to Niantic, with "much more" frequency from 2 KM Eggs. Cleffa will also have an increased Shiny rate. As a Baby Pokémon, Cleffa already has a higher-than-normal Shiny rate, so we are likely to see a boost that may be comparable to Community Day Shiny odds or even greater here.

    • 2× Candy from hatching Eggs
    • 2 km Eggs will drop more frequently from PokéStops
