Ticket for Community Day with Shuppet – Research
Where did we get the information? The Community Day with Shuppet started earlier than us due to the time difference in other parts of the world. For this reason, there are reports from these trainers in social networks about the special research “Ghost Hour Goes Around.”
With the help of LeekDuck’s overview, we have summarized the tasks and rewards for the 1€ research with Shuppet (via LeekDuck/reddit):

Is buying the ticket worth it?
What you need to consider: If you look at the pure value of the items you receive through the rewards of the special research, it surpasses the ticket price of 1€.
- A Star Piece costs 100 coins in the shop, which is about 1€
- A Rocket Radar costs 200 coins in the shop, which is about 2€
- Two incenses cost 80 coins in the shop, which is about 80 cents
- Additionally, you receive further rewards, such as balls, Rare Candies, Sinnoh Stones, experience points, and Stardust
So if you were planning to buy a Star Piece or one of the other items for the event anyway, then you get more for your money through the ticket. You can also use the Star Piece and the incense directly during the Community Day. The Sinnoh Stones are needed to evolve Shuppet into Dusknoir and can therefore also be helpful.
If you’re less interested in the items from the reward, you can simply ignore the ticket. Because even without the purchase, you can participate in the Community Day and receive all other bonuses as well as wild Shuppet.
