Is the Pokémon GO Deep Depths Premium Timed Research worth it?

Like usual in Pokémon GO, todays new Deep Depths event has brought a brand new Premium Timed Research to the game. This will cost money direct from your pockets, and cannot be bought with Poké Coins.

With the event underway, we now have confirmed details on the tasks and rewards associated. So, we can explore if this ticket is worth the $2 price tag.

Here is everything you need to know to decide if you are going to buy the Deep Depths Premium Timed Research in Pokémon GO.

It will cost you $2 to purchase this Premium Timed Research. Bear in mind that because this is Timed Research and not Special Research it will expire. That means the tasks associated with this Timed Research must be completed and their rewards must be claimed before Monday, March 24, 2025, at 8:00 p.m. local time.

However, there is only one page of tasks so this shouldn't be too difficult to complete in the time avaliable.

Here are all the tasks and rewards avaliable if you purchase this Premium Timed Research:

Completion Rewards: Nickit encounter, ×1 Super Incubator, ×1 Star Piece

During the Deep Depths event in Pokémon GO there is an increased chance to encounter Shiny Clauncher. That means this ticket isn't perhaps as bland as it first seems. If you do not have shiny Clauncher in your collection, this could be a good way to get your hands on it.

However, you can also get Clauncher in the wild and through 7 km Eggs. So, this isn't a total necessity if you are chasing that shiny. The odds will be the same across all ways to encounter this Pokémon.

That said, at $2 the price is relatively low. So, if you can afford it and you need this shiny then this Deep Depths Premium Timed Research would be worth it.
