Whenever Pokémon Go receives a big update or introduces a new region of Pokémon, the types of monsters that hatch from eggs changes.
The Gen 4 Pokémon Go changes what trainers will find in 2, 5 and 10km eggs. Niantic is making it a bit harder to find Sinnoh Region Pokémon this time around. Pokémon from older generations will still hatch from these eggs, so what you will find will be up to random chance.
Some patterns from older generations have carried over to Gen 4. Starter Pokémon usually hatch from 5km eggs and it seems that is the case with this big Pokémon Go update.
Also, only eggs obtained from PokeStops after the Gen 4 update went into effect (at approximately 11 a.m. EDT on Oct. 16) will have a chance to become a Sinnoh Pokémon. Be sure to check the date and time of when you obtained an egg to make sure you are incubating the correct one.
Here are all the Pokémon that can be found in 2km, 5km and 10km eggs in Pokémon Go from every region as of Oct. 16.
