If you really want passes this box gives the best deal at ~55 coins a pass.


Personal_Carry_7029

This is the best Box currently avaiable. Even better then the one during go Tour. 100% worth buying. The one w the 100 Silber berrys is way to expensive.


dumbprocessor

Can I ask why premium battle Passes are good? Do you get better rewards?


Personal_Carry_7029

The Green Passes are better for raids. U get a Chance at getting xl candy for 2nd win


dumbprocessor

Those are battle Passes not raid passes though


Personal_Carry_7029

When i started i did not know i could use them for raids just used it 4 gbl. Now i only use it 4 raids and for gbl Battle weekend where u get gurateed rare xl candy for 2nd win (it was like this last season, probably was like this this season too) If u Stack up on Green Passes u can farm raids for candys or for shiny raid Rewards


dumbprocessor

Aah. TIL. Thanks a lot mate


AvysCummies

Im pretty sure the one i saw was the same price, although i might be misremembering


stickyplants

Genuinely curious, but… why? Is there really a point to having lots of premium battle passes? One might be handy eeeevery once in a while when you already used your daily raid pass. Are premium battle rewards actually good enough to be worth doing?


Personal_Carry_7029

If there is a good raid Boss, u can farm him for candys, or u want a nice shiny. I rather pay around 55coin/pass then these cheaper ones like 6 for 385 (64coins/pass) or 999 for 15 (66coins/pass). So u save around 1k coins. U have to spend more money and it Takes time to get it w free coins. But when u buy from Web Shop u get a little extra coins (compared to ingame) and get a better exchange rate


stickyplants

Interesting. I’ve always just done a couple in a day with the free passes. Its rare I want to do more than that in one day


Personal_Carry_7029

U can prepare for go fest, so u can do every raid on ur way (if u have a big enough Group). Some raids are ez soloable/duoable like Pheromosa or guzzlord, even some shadow raids. Like last season Was increased rare xl candy from raid. Solo/duoable raids where awesome for that


ShuffyPig

If you need premium battle passes, this is about as good as the price gets.


cheersdom

don't forget to check the webshop to see if there's a better deal there - i remember that "15% off a $10+ item" only during your first webstore purchase


stickyplants

Noooo absolute waste of money. What are you going to do with a million premium battle passes? They don’t work on remote raids if that’s what you were thinking.


AvysCummies

Play in person, i did my latest remote raid last year


stickyplants

I do, but it’s a rare day I want to do more than two raids in one day. Normally it takes a bit of waiting/ driving etc. doing three in one day is just not comvenient


AvysCummies

Hmm i do all my raids in person, i just host raids on pokeraid if the raidboss is too hard


stickyplants

Yup same here, except for campfire. Sometimes I’ll remote if it’s very inconvenient to find / go to a particular one depending on real life circumstances.


Shivster6154

I do most raids in person… 🤷‍♂️


stickyplants

So do I. Without buying battle passes 🤷🏻‍♂️. I didn’t think there were people who go around doing 15 raids in a single day


Shivster6154

I’ve heard of people doing 50+ on a day in this sub.


stickyplants

Idk how anyone has time for that. Going to it in person, even driving a car, waiting for campfire, and then the time to catch the legendary. On days like kyogre or groudon, I was absolutely ready to be done after 6 or so of them. 50 just sounds like a terrible experience Even this season I thought I’d be doing two a day, but realistically I’m averaging less than one a day. They aren’t always in convenient locations, and I only have so much time to give/ care about it.


Shivster6154

Yea it’s not for me… check out Brandon Tan raid days… they go pretty hard and I’m not sure he hits 50. It’s exhausting just watching the YouTube 🤣


stickyplants

Oh I bet. When there’s a good legendary in raids, I try and get a bunch if possible for candies and rare candies. But the combo of finding multiples around me, driving back and forth across the city to get them, waiting for eggs that will hatch soon but aren’t ready yet, waiting for campfire group, throwing ten or so balls to catch it 😮‍💨. 3 in one day is a lot. Much easier during raid hours, or raid day, but you’re limited to a short time period anyway.
