If you're going to collect data, please don't do this.

Look. Let's say someone hatches 100 eggs. For the sake of an argument, let's say 10% are 10km eggs. Of those 10 eggs, there's only a 1/17 chance that egg would contain Mr Mime. That's a 0.6% chance of hatching a Mr Mime. You also need consider the fact that:

  1. You're assuming the chances of hatching a specific Pokemon is equal to the chances of hatching all other Pokemon. Who's to say that's true? and

  2. Different regions just had Pokemon Go released in their area. There's been less time to collect data in Asia and far less time to collect data in South America. Maybe Pokemon like Farfetch'd weren't available until Pokemon Go was released in Asia

So your sample size is significantly smaller (more than a little compromise) than it appears and the data is not well distributed across different regions, something that seems pretty important in this case.

Further, you're challenged by GPS spoofers and your solution to anyone who does report hatching a regional Pokemon seems to be just exclude them from your results.

Conclusion many of us are drawing: your poll is nice, but pretty inconclusive and pointless.

Add on the fact that you seem pretty hostile and defensive and that's why you're getting such backlash. Have a good day.
