Pokemon-go – Are Pokemon from eggs still useful at lvl 30

pokemon-go

I'm wondering if once you're lvl 30, are Pokemon from eggs still useful for fights as they are only lvl 20 (candies are, but the Pokemon itself) ?

Best Answer

Basically you won't get better Pokémon after reaching level 20 due to this:

  TemplateId: "PLAYER_LEVEL_SETTINGS"
  PlayerLevel {
    RankNum: (...)
    RequiredExp: (...)
    CpMultiplier: (...)
    MaxEggPlayerLevel: 20
    MaxEncounterPlayerLevel: 30
  }

But(!):

  • Rare Pokémon
  • Pokémon with neat values (this for example)
  • Candy
  • More Candy
  • Filling your Pokédex
  • Even more Candy

So yes, hatching eggs is still useful until you completed your Pokédex and powered up everything. Especially collecting (and using) Candy will be a pain in higher levels, since the power up costs will be pretty high.
