Pokémon GO Clefable Raid Day Ticket costs US$4.99 or your local store equivalent for Saturday, November 28, 2026. It raises the maximum number of Raid Passes available from Gym Photo Discs to fourteen, improves your chance of Rare Candy XL from raids, and adds 5,000 XP and 5,000 Stardust from Super Mega Raids. These bonuses apply from 2 PM to 5 PM local time.
You don’t need the ticket to battle Mega Clefable, encounter a possible Shiny or complete the free Metagross research. Whether it’s worth buying depends on how many raids you’re planning and whether you have the resources needed to enter them. There’s also a Web Store bundle with an extra Premium Battle Pass to consider.
Pokémon GO Clefable Raid Day Ticket: free versus paid bonuses
Here’s exactly what you get for free and what the Pokémon GO Clefable Raid Day Ticket adds. The paid bonuses increase rewards and pass availability, but they don’t promise a Shiny Clefable or guaranteed Rare Candy XL.
| November 28 bonus | Free | Paid ticket (US$4.99) |
|---|---|---|
| Gym Raid Passes | Up to six | Up to fourteen |
| Shiny Clefable chance | Increased | Same announced event boost |
| Rare Candy XL | Regular raid chance | Increased chance |
| Super Mega Raid XP | Usual rewards | Additional 5,000 per raid |
| Super Mega Raid Stardust | Usual rewards | Additional 5,000 per raid |
| Free Timed Research | Premium Battle Pass and Metagross | Also available to ticket holders |
The pass bonus is up to fourteen passes from spinning Gym Photo Discs, not fourteen passes deposited instantly in your bag. The extra 5,000 XP and 5,000 Stardust are awarded for Super Mega Raids during the three-hour window, rather than being a one-off reward for buying the ticket.
Do the extra passes let you enter Super Mega Raids?
Super Mega Raids have separate entry rules. For local attempts, Pokémon GO lets you use Link Charges or a Premium Battle Pass; for remote attempts you need both a Remote Raid Pass and Link Charges. The extra standard Raid Passes advertised for Clefable Day aren’t described as a replacement for those requirements.
That’s an important part of deciding whether the Pokémon GO Clefable Raid Day Ticket offers value. Having more Gym Raid Passes doesn’t automatically mean you have everything needed for a day of Super Mega Raids. Check your Link Charges and Premium Battle Passes before spending. Our Super Mega Raid guide has the entry rules.
Is the Pokémon GO Web Store Ultra Ticket Box better?
If you’re planning to pay anyway, check the Clefable Super Mega Raid Day Ultra Ticket Box in the official Pokémon GO Web Store. It’s listed at the same US$4.99 pricing tier and includes the event ticket plus one Premium Battle Pass at no extra cost. That additional pass can be useful for local Super Mega Raid entry.
There’s also a Premium Battle Pass in the free event Timed Research, alongside a Metagross encounter. That’s not the same pass as the bonus in the Web Store box, and you don’t have to buy anything to access the research. You’ll still need to complete and claim it before the research ends.
When can you buy the Clefable Raid Day ticket?
The in-game ticket is scheduled to remain on sale until 5 PM local time on Saturday, November 28, when the event closes. In Britain, the bonus window is 2 PM to 5 PM GMT. Pokémon GO gives US$4.99 and equivalent local price tiers but doesn’t state an exact UK price in the announcement, so check the actual shop.
You can’t pay for the Pokémon GO Clefable Raid Day Ticket with PokéCoins. You can gift a ticket to another Trainer if you’re Great Friends or higher, subject to availability. Pokémon GO says purchases, including gifts, are non-refundable except where the terms or applicable law provide otherwise.
Is the Pokémon GO Clefable Raid Day Ticket worth buying?
If you’re planning just one or two raids, starting with the free bonuses makes sense. You still get the Mega Clefable debut, boosted Shiny chance and a chance to earn Metagross plus a Premium Battle Pass from research. The paid ticket doesn’t guarantee a Shiny or a particular Rare Candy XL drop rate.
A ticket is more appealing if you’ve organised a group for a busy three-hour session and expect to finish several Super Mega Raids. The added XP and Stardust can accumulate across those victories. But work out how you’ll enter the raids first: more regular Gym passes aren’t the same as unlimited Link Charges.
What else happens on November 28?
Mega Clefable debuts from 2 PM to 5 PM local time on November 28. The separate Global Challenge runs November 27 to 28 in Pacific time and can unlock later Moonblast+ and Super Max CP boosts. You don’t need the Pokémon GO Clefable Raid Day Ticket for that challenge.
Our Clefable Raid Day guide covers free passes, research and the Shiny boost. The Global Challenge guide has the UK and worldwide times. Compare those free benefits with the extra paid rewards before deciding.
