The 99 Premium Battle Pass Box

Pokémon GO rotates a 99 Premium Battle Pass Box into the in-game shop from time to time. It usually costs 5,425–5,450 PokéCoins and gives you 99 Premium Battle Passes in one go.

That works out to roughly 55 PokéCoins per pass — versus 100 PokéCoins for a single Premium Battle Pass bought individually. The box alone is a ~45% per-pass discount versus buying one at a time, even at standard in-game PokéCoin prices.

Heads up: Niantic rotates this offer with different names and artwork — you might see it called the Ultra Raid Box, Gold Box, or a seasonal / event name, often with completely different cover art and colours. The contents are the same offer (99 Premium Battle Passes for around 5,425 PokéCoins) regardless of which version is in the shop that week.

Stack the box with cheap PokéCoins

The box price is fixed in PokéCoins. What changes is how much real money those PokéCoins cost you. Niantic's largest in-game pack is 15,500 PokéCoins for $99. Our shop sells the same 15,500 PokéCoins for $50 — almost half-price.

Combine the two and the box (around 5,425 PokéCoins) drops from $34.66 worth of in-game PokéCoins to just $17.50 with our discount PokéCoins. That's about $0.18 per raid pass — versus $0.64 for a single in-game Premium Battle Pass. Roughly 72% off per pass.

How to spot the 99 box

  • Check the in-game shop daily. The box rotates in and out without notice — regular shop checks are the only reliable way to catch it.
  • Events are common triggers. The box often surfaces alongside seasonal launches, anniversary events, and Community Day weekends.
  • Have PokéCoins ready. The box is usually gone within days. Buy your discount PokéCoins ahead of time rather than scrambling after it appears.
  • No daily limit on how many boxes you can buy in a rotation, so heavy raiders can stockpile several at the discount rate.

Raid pass FAQ

What's a Premium Battle Pass?

A Premium Battle Pass (the green one) lets you join one extra in-person raid that day, on top of your free daily pass. It's separate from a Remote Raid Pass (the blue one) — Remote passes are for raiding from a distance, sold individually for 195 PokéCoins, and don't have an equivalent bulk box.

How often does the 99 Premium Battle Pass Box appear?

It rotates in and out of the in-game shop — usually surfacing during events, seasonal launches, or anniversary periods. There's no fixed schedule, so the practical move is to keep an eye on the shop a few times a week and have PokéCoins ready so you can grab one the moment it appears.

Do Premium Battle Passes expire?

Premium Battle Passes don't expire — they sit in your bag indefinitely until you use them. Niantic occasionally caps how many you can hold during certain events, but in normal play a box of 99 is yours to spend across as many raid days as you need.

Why are PokéXperience PokéCoins cheaper than the in-game shop?

We buy PokéCoin packs in bulk and pass the discount on to Pokémon GO trainers. The PokéCoins themselves are identical to the ones from the in-game shop — same currency, deposited directly into your Pokémon Trainer Club account via our secure PayPal checkout. The only thing that changes is the dollar cost.
