Alright, guys, let’s talk about catching that fancy Alolan Persian in Pokémon Go. I’ve been trying to get one for a while, and I finally cracked the code, so I wanted to share my experience.
The Hunt Begins
First off, I knew I couldn’t just stumble upon an Alolan Persian in the wild. Nope, these guys are a bit more exclusive. I did some digging (mostly on Reddit, let’s be honest) and found out that they primarily come from 7km eggs. Okay, cool, I can do that.

Getting those 7km Eggs:
- I started opening gifts like crazy. Seriously, I hit up all my Pokémon Go friends and made sure I had space in my egg inventory. Only gifts can give you 7km eggs.
- I Spun PokéStops every day to get a lot of gifts.
The Hatching Marathon
Next, the waiting game, I equipped my best incubators—gotta hatch those eggs fast! And started walking. And walking. And walking some more. My shoes probably hate me now.
I hatched a bunch of Alolan Meowth, which was a good sign, but still no Persian. It took, I don’t know, maybe ten 7km eggs? I lost count after a while, It’s felt so long.
Finally, Success!
Then, boom! One of those Alolan Meowth finally evolved. I had enough candies from all the previous hatches, tapped that evolve button, and there it was – my very own Alolan Persian. Pretty slick looking, I gotta say.
So, the key takeaways, at last for me?
- Focus on 7km eggs: Get those from gifts, open gifts, and make space in your egg inventory.
- Be prepared to walk: It’s gonna take some time and distance to hatch those eggs.
- Patience is key: You might hatch a few Alolan Meowths before you get enough candies to evolve one into Persian.
That’s how I got my Alolan Persian. Hope this helps you get yours! Good luck, and happy hunting!
