In Pokémon GO there is currently a really good box that is worth it. However, the “Special Box” will not remain available.
What kind of box is this? The Special Box is currently available in the Pokémon GO shop. It costs 399 coins.
Inside it are:
- An item bag expansion
- A Pokémon storage expansion
- 5 Super Incubators
- 5 Premium Battle Passes
Why is it worth it? The storage and item expansions normally cost 200 coins each, so together 400. You can’t get them in any other way than through the shop. A Super Incubator costs 200 coins, and 5 of them would cost 1,000 coins. Battle Passes cost 100 each, so 5 would be 500 coins.
With 399 coins instead of a total of 1,900 coins, you get everything much cheaper; it’s basically an extra on top of the expansions for the incubators and battle passes. Anyone who had planned an expansion of their item and Pokémon bag soon should probably take this box instead.
How much time do you have? The box is available for 5 days according to the shop. To get the necessary coins from 0, you need 8 days in gyms, which yield 50 coins each with ideal defense. If you still need some coins to get the box, you should see if you can earn them in the next few days.
Because such a good offer is very unusual for the Pokémon GO shop.
Community wonders about strong box in the shop
Normally, the offer boxes in the shop do not turn out as well as the new Special Box. They usually cost too many coins or offer items that you can’t really use or get through other means. This has led to criticism in the past. However, the new box offers a lot of good items at a good price.
This is how fans react: In the subreddit for Pokémon GO, the box is also discussed (via reddit). Some comment on how unusual the offer is and that they usually don’t even look at the shop anymore.
- “One of the best deals I’ve ever seen, but I will have to save some coins,” comments user ZenithVoid151 (via reddit).
- “Great box,” thinks user Myerzl (via reddit).
- “Thank you, I almost never look in the shop! Last time I missed it, so I’m glad my saving coins have paid off since then,” says user “alucardoceanic” (via reddit).
- “I bought it right away. This must be a mistake,” believes user mz80 (via reddit).
In fact, there was a case in 2023 where a box had the same content. It was taken offline after a short time. This time, however, everything seems to be going as planned, as the new box was also announced in the game.
You should note this: The new box can only be purchased once, not multiple times. And, importantly: If your storage is already at maximum capacity, you cannot buy the box, as some users have already noted. You should keep that in mind.
What else is happening in Pokémon GO? Winter has broken out, which can also be seen on the map. There is snow everywhere, and in the background of the catching screens, there are snow Pikachus. And that’s not surprising, as the holiday event has just started in Pokémon GO. You need to make a path choice.
