Pokémon Go fans mock the “Expert” and “Veteran” boxes because they charge for items that can easily be obtained for free.
Anyone who plays Pokémon Go regularly will quickly be overwhelmed with Poké Balls and Berries. These items are given as rewards for almost every task, and if you live near or always pass by a PokéStop, you should never run out of one.
According to a post on the Pokémon Go Reddit, there are options for people who desperately need Poké Balls or Berries. The “Expert” and “Veteran” boxes are criticized for charging for items that people regularly delete because they have too many.
What “Expert” or “Veteran” would buy these??? byu/moose6619 inpokemongo
“An expert in wasting other people’s money. 4 year old playing with his parents phone,” one user wrote, while another said, “I often have to throw away Poké Balls and Berries because I get too many.”
“If you’re an ‘expert’ or ‘veteran’ you get these supplies for free with the regular game,” one user commented, while another lamented, “After a 5 year break I’m pretty stunned to see how many things have not improved or changed. This is seriously amazing in the worst way possible.”
One user summed it up. “These are only for Turkey Experts and Turkey Veterans.”
Some players mentioned that rural Pokémon Go fans could use these boxes, but they could also get much of the same thing by sending and receiving gifts with other players online without spending a dime.
Much has been said about Pokémon Go’s monetization choices, with fans expressing that the game charges too much for too little. A few poorly named boxes that charge for easily accessible items are just the latest in a long line of items that have drawn scorn from fans, and they likely won’t be the last.
