Deciding which Pokémon GO in-app purchases are worthwhile can be tricky. This December, the Eggs-pedition Access paid ticket returns for the Dual Destiny season. Let's examine if it's a smart investment.
The Eggs-pedition Access ticket, available from December 3rd, 10 AM to December 31st, 8 PM local time, costs $5 USD (or local equivalent). Here's what it offers:
The boosted incubator and gift limits facilitate increased egg hatching, particularly the 7km eggs. But are the December Pokémon worth the extra PokéCoins?
Here's a breakdown of Pokémon hatching during the Dual Destiny Season:

Further egg additions are possible with future event announcements.
Daily PokéStop spins yield 28 extra incubators (from December 3rd), valued at approximately 4200 PokéCoins or $4.20 USD. This nearly matches the ticket price, excluding other benefits.
This ticket is worthwhile if you frequently hatch eggs, desire specific Pokémon, or regularly purchase incubators. The extra gifts and XP are added bonuses.
However, if egg hatching isn't a priority or if weather conditions limit gameplay, the ticket's value diminishes unless you heavily prioritize gift sending/receiving.
Pokémon GO is available on mobile devices.
