Together with the 4th generation, Niantic also introduced new offer boxes in the Pokémon GO shop. We tell you whether a purchase is worthwhile.
In the Pokémon GO shop, there are again three new boxes. The Special, Super, and Hyper boxes can be purchased for a limited time. The boxes contain several shop items that can otherwise only be bought individually in the shop.
We show you what is in the boxes and whether purchasing the boxes is worthwhile.
The following items can be found in the packages
For the calculation: To find out what savings the boxes bring, it was calculated how much, for example, a Incubator costs per 8-pack. This price was then compared to the respective box. Thus, the individual price of the items from the shop was not taken.
- Contents: 3x Incubator, 2x Premium Raid Pass, 10x Razz Berry, 20x Ultra Ball
- Price: 480 coins
- Savings: 170 coins (about 27%)
- For whom is the box worthwhile?: The box is worthwhile for players who do not play in large cities with many stops and gyms. With the new generation come new Pokémon that you ideally want to catch with a Razz Berry and an Ultra Ball. Those who can’t spin many PokéStops will benefit from the box. Any player who has enough berries and balls should not buy this box. The remaining contents offer little savings.
- Contents: 5x Super Incubator, 1x Lucky Egg, 3x Premium Raid Pass, 3x Incense
- Price: 780 coins
- Savings: 720 coins (about 48%)
- For whom is the box worthwhile?: The box is worthwhile for players who want to hatch eggs on Community Day. This time, there is the particularity that you only have to walk a quarter of the distance for eggs. However, if you want to hatch new Pokémon from eggs, you need more Incubators. If someone buys the box just for the incubators, they won’t make a mistake. However, if they are also relying on other items, they should rather not buy it. There have been better offers in the past.
- Contents: 12x Super Incubator, 9x Lure Module, 6x Premium Raid Pass, 8x Incubator
- Price: 1480 coins
- Savings: 2650 coins (about 64%)
- For whom is the box worthwhile?: The box is ideal for anyone who enjoys hatching eggs. With this box, you can hatch a total of 36 eggs. The other items are also sufficiently available and the savings are reasonable. There have been better Hyper boxes, but definitely worse ones too. If you want to hatch the new Pokémon, you can’t go wrong with the purchase.
Especially good for hatching: The boxes mainly contain many incubators. The bonus on Community Day revolves around eggs, and there are some Pokémon from the 4th generation that can only be obtained by hatching.
