I did exactly this and got the egg :) Not sure why you got so many down votes but your right. :) For anyone that actually wants to take the time to do this, it worked for me :) and I havent played any of these Pokemon games in 10+ years and just started the other day again for fun to kill time at the VA. I didnt do this intentionally but I did do it in these exact steps and I was given an Egg, it later hatched into a Togepi. 3 days later I have 10 pokemon lvl 50+ :) This post is rather old but whatever, figured I would reply to it incase anyone else runs into this :)
