Is the Pokémon Go PokéCoin Bounty ticket worth it?
With just PokéCoins alone, the the short answer is yes, the ticket is worth buying, but only if you’re a player who will log in every day to reap the benefits. Usually $4.99 will buy you 550 PokéCoins, so as long as you log in enough to beat that amount, it’ll technically be “worth it.”
The bonuses themselves are harder to quantify, but when it comes to the increases in gift storage, sending and sending, these are particularly useful for players who routinely trade gifts en masse. Regularly opening gifts and levelling friendship is one of the best ways to get XP in Pokémon Go, so if you want to maximize your gains, then this is well worth factoring into the price of the ticket.
Either way – it’s better to buy the ticket sooner than later, as if you miss days, you’re missing coins.
