During the Season of Adventures Abound, a month-long paid Timed Research ticket (which came with additional month-long bonuses) was released in October. The Timed Research consisted of four different parts and each part would be released alongside a specific event happening that month. For the Season of Timeless Travels, the paid ticket is back, but under a new name. Dubbed Eggs-pedition Access, these paid tickets will be released monthly during the entire Season of Timeless Travels. Each month will have different bonuses and feature different Pokémon for the catch reward encounters (Gible for December, Togetic for January or February, and Hisuian Growlithe for January or February). (For more details about the Season of Timeless Travels, you can check out our overall Season of Timeless Travels guide hub.)
