The new offer boxes for the Kanto Event in Pokémon GO are a great opportunity to stock up on raid passes.
For major events, Niantic often offers boxes in the in-game shop of Pokémon GO. The contents usually match the respective event and provide you with important items. Currently, there are many new raid bosses due to the Kanto Week – the packages supply you with many passes for them. We will show you in the overview which box is most worthwhile for you.
Kanto Event Offers – Which Box is Worth It for You?
For those starting Pokémon GO now, there are three new boxes available in the shop that are only available for a short time. The Special Box, the Super Box, and the Hyper Box. They come at different prices with various contents. The focus is on the raid passes: There are 6 in the smallest box and 24 in the largest.
Update: The boxes will remain in the Pokémon GO shop until April 24.
| Contents | Special Box | Super Box | Hyper Box |
| Premium Raid Pass | 6 | 12 | 24 |
| Razz Berry | 10 | 16 | |
| Lure Module | 4 | 10 | |
| Incense | 6 | ||
| Lucky Egg | 6 | 12 | |
| Star Piece | 14 | ||
| Price | 480 coins | 780 coins | 1480 coins |
Which box you buy depends primarily on your budget. If you only want to buy a few raid passes and spend little coins, the Special Box is okay. However, the raid passes are cheaper in the other boxes.
As PokémonGOHub reports, the costs of the raid passes are distributed as follows:
- In the Special Box, the cost of a Premium Raid Pass is 80 coins.
- Considering all items, there is a discount of 52% on this box.
- In the Super Box, the cost of a Premium Raid Pass is 65 coins.
- Considering all items, there is a discount of 63.8% on this box.
- In the Hyper Box, the cost of a Premium Raid Pass is 61.67 coins.
- Considering all items, there is a discount of 66% on this box.
Interesting for Raiders
For those players among you who raid intensively and therefore want to save the most on raid passes, the offer of the Hyper Box is worth it.
The difference in raid pass costs between the Super and Hyper Box is quite small. If you don’t have enough coins for the Hyper Box but still want to save on raid passes, go for the Super Box.
The Special Box is really for those on a tight budget. You do save here compared to the original prices, but you don’t get as good a deal on raid passes as you do with the larger boxes.
Conclusion: If you can afford it, go for the Hyper Box. If you are missing incense in your inventory for future events and raid passes are not that important to you? Then the Super Box is an option. If you want to stock up your inventory but don’t want to spend too many coins, go for the Special Box.
