Egg Incubators are items used to hatch Pokémon Eggs. In order to hatch an egg, a Trainer must place an Egg in an Incubator.
There are three types of Incubators:
- an Unlimited one, which is orange in appearance and has infinite uses;
- a Limited one, which is blue in appearance and has three uses;
- and a Super one, which is purple in appearance and has three uses, but hatches an Egg much faster.
To see currently owned Incubators there are two ways:
- The first one is to check it out on the item bag page
- and the second is to tap the Incubators Button on the page with owned eggs.
