Is Pokemon GO Wild Area Global ticket worth it? 

Niantic has released a new yearly event for Pokemon GO called Wild Area, and it said to be similar to GO Tours and GO Fests. As such, players need to purchase a Global ticket to get the most value from it. This ticket can be purchased from the in-game store for $11.99 USD.

The Wild Area Global ticket is most valuable to those who will actively grind Pokemon GO during the event's duration. However, it is not a wise investment for casual fans or those who do not actively play the game regularly.

Here is everything to know before purchasing the Wild Area Global ticket.

What does the Pokemon GO Wild Area Global Ticket offer?

Everything the Pokemon GO Wild Area Global Ticket offers can be found on its page in the in-game shop. Here is everything it gives players:

• An encounter with a wild Toxtricity
• Up to five free Raid Passes from spinning gym photo disks per day
• Increased chance to get Toxel from 10 kilometer eggs
• Up to six special trades per day
• Reduced stardust cost for trades
• Halved hatching distance on all eggs
• 2x capture candy multiplier
• Higher chance to encounter Shiny Pokemon
• Access to exclusive Timed Research that rewards with Safari Balls every hour

Considering these bonuses, trainers who intend on actively playing the game during Wild Area rather than just checking it out on occasion may want to consider investing in this purchase.

Toxtricity and its pre-evolved form are the biggest focuses for this event, as their Gigantamax forms will be made available.

To make these creatures more accessible for Max Battles, Dynamax Toxtricity will also be making an appearance during the Wild Area event, so those without a way to take down Gigantamax Toxtricity can still have a usable form of the creature. This is also where the extra Raid Passes from the ticket will come in handy.

Is Pokemon GO's Wild Area Global Ticket worth it for all players?

For dedicated players looking to invest a lot of time into Wild Area, this ticket is incredibly valuable.

Those in urban areas will have an even stronger advantage, thanks to such locations offering more gyms and Pokestops to sustain long play sessions. Those in smaller towns will not benefit as much from the bonuses and may want to avoid the ticket.

$12 is a serious investment for mobile games in terms of purchases. The ticket only offers a range of bonuses, while the event itself holds exclusive spawns and encounters like Rock and Pop Star Pikachu, Rock 'n' Roll Snorlax, and Mighty Pokemon. With this in mind, players only interested in completing their Pokedex will not have much of a reason to purchase this ticket either.
