POKÉMON GO is one of the biggest mobile games on the planet, with tens of millions of players logging into the game every day to catch pocket monsters.
It’s one of the most-played Pokémon games ever, and one of the reasons it’s still so popular is because of the frequent events the game has.
At any given time, at least one major event season is ongoing, and there are often smaller events that take place during those major seasons, like Community Days and raid hours.
Sometimes, those events come with research, much of which is free, but some of which is paid.
Right now, Pokémon Go is about to celebrate the Max Out season, which introduces a host of new features, including Dynamax Pokémon, which are strong new Pokémon that can grow to gargantuan sizes.
Alongside the Max Out event is a paid research ticket, which can be purchased for real money from the Pokémon Go store in-game and on the web.
The ticket is called the Daily PokéCoin Bounty Part 1 Ticket, and it offers a host of rewards, including 200 PokéCoins right away.
The Daily PokéCoin Bounty also offers one bonus Field Research task per day, each of which offers 20 additional PokéCoins.
Those who have a ticket will get these research tasks daily for the entire month, from September 3, 2024 up until October 2, 2024.
All up, coins earned from the research tasks total 600, meaning 800 coins are up for grabs all up, including the initial 200-coin boost.
So is it worth it? Purely from a monetary standpoint, it actually does come out as a little better than just buying coins directly.
The Daily PokéCoin Bounty Part 1 Ticket costs £4.99, while coins come in batches of 100 and 550 coins, costing £0.99 and £4.99, respectively.
You can essentially pay the price of 550 coins and get 800 in return, along with quite a few other bonuses, too.
Ticket holders also get triple experience from first PokéStop spins and first catches every day, as well as 15,000 experience and stardust through rewards across the event.
The event comes as news about the Pokémon main series has stalled, with the last announcement being for Pokémon Legends: Z-A back in February, without gameplay or further details.
