What's Included in Eggs-pedition Access for Dual Destiny in Pokémon GO

Here's what trainers receive:

  • One single-use Incubator per day from your first PokéStop or Gym spin.
  • Triple XP for your first daily catch.
  • Triple XP for your first daily PokéStop or Gym spin.
  • Increased daily gift opening limit: up to 50 gifts.
  • Ability to receive up to 150 gifts daily from PokéStop spins.
  • Increased gift inventory capacity: up to 40 gifts.
  • A special December Timed Research awarding 15,000 XP and 15,000 Stardust upon completion.

December 2024 Egg Overview

The extra incubators and increased gift capacity allow for more egg hatching, particularly those 7km eggs. But are the December eggs worth the extra PokéCoins?

Additional eggs may be available through future events.

Is the Paid Eggspedition Access Pokémon GO Ticket Worth It?

Daily PokéStop spins yield 28 extra incubators (a value of approximately $4.20 USD), nearly matching the ticket price. Considering the additional XP and gift bonuses, the ticket offers good value if you frequently purchase incubators. However, if you're not focused on egg hatching or gift exchanges, the benefits may not justify the cost.

Pokémon GO is available on mobile devices.
