So much for Farfetch'd...

That seems a bit invasive, even for this game. I really hope they don't go that route, particularly because I don't really have anyone in my contacts who isn't from my immediate area.

eh, I just made that idea up on the fly.

what do you think they'll do? better yet what's your suggestion?
 
I can hear both sides of this but ultimately I wouldn't have had any region exclusive Pokees. What if an American's favorite Pokemon is region exclusive elsewhere? Doesn't really seem fair.
 
I Googled this for quite a while last night and I can't find any solid proof that any of these Pokémon have been hatched from an egg from regions other than the ones listed, but there have been a lot of people saying that it's possible regardless. It's tough to know right now so I'm assuming the answer is that you can't hatch them outside of those regions but really hoping you can. I think until one of us has managed to do it it'll be hard to trust anyone on this haha.
 
I thought I read somewhere that Niantic even mentioned you could hatch them outside their respective continents at their Comic Con press-release. I could be completely making that up though, as a lot of speculative information is being passed around.

But you're right, I've never seen anyone hatch them outside of their regions, personally... and I don't believe I've ever see anyone post about it here or elsewhere.

Who knows.
 
Perhaps what matters isn't where the egg is hatched but where it's found? Like if you find the egg in Japan but then travel to Europe before hatching the egg, you might still get Farfetch'd? No idea, just speculating.

At any rate I'm in Europe and I have seen (the silhouette of) Mr. Mime, so he's definitely here.
 
Kangaskhan being an Australia exclusive makes sense, but I don't like this idea of Pokemon that are only exclusive to certain countries because there is currently no trading feature (although it was announced it will be included in a future update) and the eggs are completely randomized as well.

Hopefully future updates will get around this, but it's just mean when you know that all the GO players can't "catch em all" just because of a Pokemon being outside of their region.
