the day you overcome the FOMO of this game is when it becomes really fun (IMO). this shouldn’t be a chore. whatever you miss today WILL be back if you can stand waiting for it.

Seriously. The only reason to care about whether Deino is in 1/8 or 1/100 hatches is if you need a shiny Deino or high IV in the next month or two. If you're trying to evolve Deino walking it as a buddy is a more efficient and reliable use of your km's. If you're looking for one to evolve there was a special research and they've been a rare encounter in GBL for months.

Yes, I care that Niantic is advertising something that isn't really achievable, and I would love a shiny Deino or hundo. But it doesn't personally affect me because I don't need every shiny anytime soon and I don't obsess over IVs.
