However, players who bought a ticket for Go Fest 2023: Global can also access some Timed Research as a bonus. This is the only featured piece of content during Riolu Hatch Day. Alternately, if you own a Pokémon Go Plus + device, you can acquire some Special Research and a unique Snorlax encounter.
In order to give eggs a little bit more time in the spotlight, Niantic is finally introducing a new event called Hatch Day. Eggs have always been a significant component of Pokémon Go. Players will experience increased odds of hatching the Emanation Pokémon during the first iteration of this event type, which has as its theme Riolu Hatch Day.
Hatch Day, in contrast to earlier Egg-centric content, will collaborate more closely with a Community Day event, so it will only be available on July 22 from 2 pm to 5 pm local time. However, Riolu won’t be the only Pokémon hatching during that time. Riolu will also have a higher chance of appearing as a Shiny when it hatches from 2km Eggs. Throughout the event, hatching Eggs will award players with double the Stardust, and more 2km Eggs will be dropping from Poké Stops.
Since Incubators are not included as Field Research rewards and no reduction in Egg Hatch distance has been made as a bonus, it appears that this event will not change the bad reputation that Egg events have. The free Hatch Day Riolu Timed Research has a Super Incubator that can be obtained by finishing it, but that is the most extras you can get.

As the event increases the likelihood of obtaining Shiny Riolu from egg hatches, it will also be possible to hatch them from 2km eggs. It has distinct yellow streaks that make it special.
Yes, this research is a single page of content to get a bit of XP and a Super Incubator. In my opinion, a bit underwhelming, but at least it is easy to complete.
