Niantic increased the variety of 2km eggs during the "Pokemon GO" Easter event. Note that these type of eggs are usually the easiest to find. However, common Pokemon have been known to hatch from them. A Reddit user on The Silph road, DeViiShChild came up with a list noting the types of Pokemon that usually hatch from this type of eggs.
During the "Pokemon GO" event, a lot of 2km eggs will be prone to hatching Eevee, Elekid, Dunsparce, Aerodactyl, Girafarig, Growlithe, Grimer and Kofffing. Larvitar, Militank, Magby, Lapras and Onix will also be hatching from 2km eggs during the event. In addition, Shuckle, Scyther, Shellder, Phanphy, Rhyhorn, Skarmony, Sneasel, Smoochum, Stantler, Tangela, Sudowoodo, Tyrogue, Wooper and Wobbuffet will also come from these eggs, Bustle reported.
"Pokemon GO" gamers will also get more candy with each egg hatched as well as Double XP during the event. Lucky Egg items are also selling half the price in the "Pokemon GO" in-game shop. Moreover, 5km eggs are going to hatch second-gen starters like Chikorita, Totodile and Cyndaquil.

"Pokemon GO" has recently been linked to positive outcomes such as walking and friendship formation. The study from the University of Wisconsin-Madison teaching assistant James Bonus predicted that the app enhances wellbeing.
