On Hatch Day, there will be a higher chance of hatching the featured Pokemon from 2km eggs. For Riolu Hatch Day, we will obviously get Riolus more often than not. We will also see a greater chance of getting a Shiny Pokemon from an egg. Other bonuses include double the Stardust from hatching Eggs and more frequent 2km Eggs from PokeStops.

In Pokemon, Riolu is a Fighting-type Pokemon that evolves into Lucario after you give it 50 candies. As a “baby” Pokemon, its stats are not very impressive until it turns into the more powerful Lucario. Since it’s a fairly rare Pokemon to get from an egg, Hatch Day might provide an opportunity to get a Riolu on your own. If you need Incubators to help you with that, there will be a limited challenge to earn Super Incubators to increase the chances of hatching a Riolu.

Pokemon GO is readily available on mobile devices. Riolu Hatch Day will take place on July 22, 2023 from 2pm to 5pm. The game recently celebrated its 7th anniversary, with more frequent appearances from Pokemon starters such as Torchic and Rowlet.
