With Kalos Tour coming up and the desire to stock up on raid passes I thought I would put this PSA out there. The box in the first picture for 595 coins is currently in the shop and is a great deal for passes! The second box is one of the best deals that costs less than 5000 coins IF you're looking for both premium battle passes AND remote passes.
pokestealordeal.com shows that the best deals for premium battle passes and remote raid passes (that doesn't cost more than 5000 coins) are 62.5 coins and 155 coins, respectively. If you have 5000 coins, then get that box if it comes to the shop because it comes with star pieces and TMs. If not, this is for you.
pokestealordeal.com is a great website, but I wanted to highlight the two boxes in the pictures because they can get overlooked. They're not the best deal if you're shopping for exclusively remote raid passes or exclusively premium battle passes so they don't appear at the top of the list on pokestealordeal.com.
The 595 coin box is just 65 coins per premium battle pass, so imo it's a great option for people looking to stock up on both remote passes AND premium battle passes.
Here's my math, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
65X2 + 155X3 = 595 here you can see the premium battle passes cost just 2.5 coins more per pass than the best budget option available for premium battle passes.
62.5X3 + 155X3 = 652.5 which is 2.5 coins more than the box in the second picture.
Note that the deal of 62.5 coins per pass is currently available in the shop and will give you more bang for your buck if you are not looking for remote raid passes.
Also, the 595 box won't get you a poffin. HOWEVER, both the boxes pictured above have 3 remote passes, which makes it possible to stockpile the maximum amount of remote passes you can have of 5. For those who don't know, you can't have more than 3 remote raid passes in your inventory at a time, but you can get around this by having 2 in your inventory, then buying 3 more.
There is one box on pokestealordeal.com that gets you 3 remote passes and one premium pass for 490 coins which is a better deal than these boxes, but I haven't seen that box since I started prepping for the Kalos Tour a month ago.
