Premium
Premium is a timed account status that speeds up your progress. It buys speed and convenience, never raw combat power: there is no damage, HP, or defense bonus in Premium. You activate it by using Premium Scrolls bought in the VIP Shop.
What Premium grants
While active, Premium adds these benefits:
| Benefit | Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Experience | +25% | exp earned hunting |
| Gold | +10% | gold earned hunting |
| Loot | +10% | drop rate |
| Offline cap | +12h | offline limit 12h → 24h |
| Incubator | +1, 30% faster | extra egg incubator slot, and it hatches faster than the others |
| Safira sending | 25,000/day | daily Safira sending cap goes from 10,000 to 25,000 |
| Market slots | up to 30 | item listings 10 → 30, mon listings 3 → 20, offers/bids 5 → 25, buy orders 3 → 20 |
| Trades | exclusive | offer trades and put items or pokemon in a trade. Receiving, accepting and paying in currency are free for everyone |
Beyond the numbers
Premium also unlocks two things that do not fit the table above:
- Open every chest at once: the Unpacker talent comes switched on for as long as Premium lasts, with no point or gold spent in the talent tree. The "Open all" button shows up in the chest tray. If you already bought the talent you lose nothing: it still works after Premium ends.
- Premium-access outfits: 10 trainer looks are available to wear while Premium is active, at no Safira cost (see Cosmetics).
The Premium incubator
While Premium is active, its extra slot hatches 30% faster than a regular incubator — faster even than an unupgraded regular slot. It's the second-fastest incubator in the game, behind only a slot with the Incubator Upgrade applied.
When Premium ends, your incubator count drops by 1, but the game only removes empty slots from the end of the line. An egg incubating in the Premium slot is never destroyed. (The Founders +1 incubator is permanent and never lapses.)
Buying is not activating
The flow has two steps:
- Buy the scroll in the VIP Shop (pay in Safira) → the item lands in your backpack.
- Use the scroll → only then does the Premium clock start (or extend).
- Buying alone activates nothing, the item just sits in your backpack until you use it.
- Scrolls are real items, tradeable and giftable: you can sit on one, give it to a friend, or sell it on the market.
- But a scroll never drops: no chest (not even the Lendário) and no pokémon generates it as loot. The VIP Shop is the source; the only exception is the paid track of the Battle Pass, which hands out a 7-day scroll at level 15.
The six scrolls
Every scroll does the same thing (grants days of Premium); only the duration and price change. The price per day gets cheaper as the scroll grows.
| Scroll | Days | Price (Safira) | Safira/day |
|---|---|---|---|
| premium-7 | 7 | 12 | 1.71 |
| premium-15 | 15 | 22 | 1.47 |
| premium-30 | 30 | 40 | 1.33 |
| premium-90 | 90 | 105 | 1.17 |
| premium-180 | 180 | 190 | 1.06 |
| premium-365 | 365 | 350 | 0.96 (best value) |
How duration stacks
Premium is measured by an expiry date. Using a scroll extends that date from the greater of "now" and the current expiry:
- If Premium is still active, the days are added to what remains.
- If it already expired, the count restarts from now.
- Using a scroll can never shorten Premium, and stacking six scrolls simply works.
- The day counter rounds up, so the last partial day still shows as 1.
The status panel
While Premium is active, the green "Nd Premium" chip shows in the top bar. Clicking it opens the status panel, which shows:
- How many days are left and the exact day and time Premium ends.
- Every active perk, with the numbers.
- The activation history: each scroll you used, when you activated it and how far it extended your Premium (old activations, from before this panel existed, don't show up).
- A shortcut straight to the Premium tab of the VIP Shop to extend.
With 3 days or less remaining, the panel warns you that Premium is running out.
