During the previous Pokémon GO seasons, Niantic started selling a month-long paid Timed Research ticket (which came with additional month-long bonuses). The paid Timed Research ticket is back, but slightly changed. Instead of buying a ticket for each month, an entire season’s worth of monthly paid Timed Research quests is rolled up into one ticket called the Wonder Ticket. This time monthly bonuses have been dropped, yet Trainers can expect Pokémon encounters, items, gear for your avatar, and more. (For more details about the Season of World of Wonder, you can check out our overall Season of World of Wonder guide hub.)
Now, here are all the details on the Wonder Ticket Part 1 paid Timed Research:
