How rare is it to pick up a 10km egg?

    I have only gotten 2 10km eggs.
    I got Omanyte and Pinsir. After that, Omanyte started to pop up near my house alot. :---D

    I wish I got more 10 km eggs, it would be awsome to get Dragonair and Lapras.

    Level 27 here. I hatched over 400 eggs. I would say I got about 30% 2k, 50% 5k, 20% 10k. Only I haven't got from 10km is Lapras, Aerodactyl, Mr.mime, and Scyther, and 5k is f'fartech (sp?) and Tanegla, completed 2k eggs.

    I have found personally that getting a 10k egg has been getting easier. I am currently level 24 and have current have 7 10k eggs ready to be incubated ( waiting till I get the incubators for leveling to 25).

    They have all been acquired in around 2 weeks. I got these 10k eggs all from same couple of pokestops and usually get 10k eggs once I have spun 10 pokestops in a row around the same area. I don't know if that really is a factor but for me It was.

    I'm at level 27 and have gone two weeks since I hatched my last 10k egg and I've been trying to get one since with absolutely no luck. Not a single 10k egg since.

    I'd say <10% chance an egg from a pokestop is 10 Km. I'm level 26 and I've probably hatched 15 total 10 km eggs. Still no Lapras or Snorlax. I've got 4 Pinsers!

    Also I've spent exactly zero dollars on this game! All my pokecoins have come from defending gyms. A lot of the time I've just had one incubator. :-(

    I haven't gotten one in a while. I have mostly 5km eggs atm. I actually have enough coins right now to buy another incubator. Probably gonna save it for a 10km.

    It's random, I stock up until I have 9 10k then buy incubators and hatch all 9 at once. I usually get 1 or 2 10k sets per week.

    This seems inplausible without cheating. This looks like a troll.

    Getting nine 10km eggs is nearly impossible to do, as it gets harder to replace the rest when you have more 10km eggs in storage. 1 or 2 sets of nine 10k eggs means you are cheating, or you are trolling this thread because you are 14 years old.

    It is not nearly impossible, it can be done. I have currently have 8 10k eggs and they have all been attained in the past 3 weeks from the same area. The last egg seems to be evading me so I agree with you about it getting progressively harder to accumulate 10k eggs when you have a few already. I have only ever gotten 2 10k eggs before this period but this is probably since I was living in a different area. I don't know if it happens as often this person says it does but if I got this many 10k eggs in such a short period I don't see why it can't happen again.

    Eight 10K eggs! I have zero right now, I feel lucky when I have even one!

    One thing that seems off is the "hatching mileage". Most of the time I bike around, and there is one ride I have measured at 9 miles. When I bike this with Pokemon Go on, if I'm not careful I will get the message that I'm going too fast. But even when I'm careful to stay under that speed limit, I don't seem to get credit for 15 km, I am lucky to be able to hatch one 10 km egg. I would say I get only around 8 km or less for my 15 km ride. It seems perhaps "hatching mileage" is more accurate when you are walking?

    That is not what he said. He said he completes and evolves a full set of nine 10km eggs ONCE OR TWICE PER WEEK.

    I know the odds of getting it done in a month or two are not zero.

    I know the odds of repeatedly getting it done once or twice a week are zero unless you make massive use of cheats like GPS hack.

    It's not impossible at all. I spend a lot of time at the Botanical Gardens nearby walking and hatching eggs, and there are a lot of pokestops to hit there. Keep in mind that I'm disabled and don't work, so I have a lot more time to do this than most people.

    i hatched 5x 10km eggs in the past 3 days. although i do hatch a lot of 2 and 5km eggs too, the 10km eggs do come quite often. i just got another one, and im gonna try to save up till i have 9. its probably gonna take weeks.

    I know some people who have never got any, but I also know people like myself who have hatched over 50. It's all luck I don't think there is a set % chance on getting a 10k.

    Approximately 1 month since my last 10k egg.
    I checked and noted that Chansey last 9/23 was my last 10k egg hatch.

    I trashed the hypothesis that pokestops give you more of the same, more of the eggs you are carrying around. I claimed it is random.

    Now i try a different approach because i am sick of getting so many 5km eggs. I now walk off the 5km eggs with the eternal incubator and let the 2km and 10km eggs accumulate. Long-term this is the same for me, no loss of efficiency, just a delay at worst, but i will see if it has an impact at all.

    I hope to prove myself wrong and that i will get less 5km eggs and more 2km and 10km eggs if i mainly carry around 2km and 10km eggs, but i expect to fail.
