Is the Eggs-pedition Access Ticket Worth It?
Daily PokéStop spins yield 28 extra incubators, valued at approximately $4.20 USD. This nearly matches the ticket price, excluding other bonuses. Therefore, for players frequently purchasing incubators or actively seeking specific Pokémon from these eggs, the ticket offers strong value. The additional gifts and XP are welcome perks.
However, if egg hatching isn't a priority, or if weather conditions limit gameplay, the additional benefits may not justify the cost unless gift-sending is a significant aspect of your gameplay.
