Incubators or premium pass -which has more value?

As title-

I'm a city player with ready accessibility to raids. I can see how raids can give huge EXP bonus, as well as candy access for the desirable species. I can hit 12-13 curve excellents if given 14 balls so whatever raid I participate I will most likely bag the mon.

However egg hatches also give stardust which for a player at my level, is not spectacular (late level 38, 340k). Also a chance of a good mon for 10k eggs.

I'm ready to spend coins for active sweatpants but they have all the colors except blue!

Someone doing raids for xp didn't pay attention during math classes.

I don't do it for the exp, it's a huge bonus of doing it nonetheless. I'm already level 38, so I have no problem accessing the level 39.5 cap right now, and when they fix it to 40, I'll be level 39 anyway.

Depending on which beast you have access to right now, maybe premium passes. I've got Suicune now, and other players seem to be uninterested in Suicune ir just tired of eaids in general. If you have Raikou now, rally the troops to take some T5 raids because it is the best of the three.

With Gen3 coming soon, if you already have the pokemon you need from eggs, then I think it is better to wait to buy incubators until Gen 3 drops.

I currently have Raikou so I bought raid passes. I just want the most chance of getting a *really* good Raikou, as they're time limited. Eggs and dust are not.

I'm patient with my eggs so I don't feel that I need to use my incubators except during events, and only then I'll incubate 10ks, but by the time the next event happens I'll have enough coins anyway.

Ah yes, my current beast is Raikou. I already have a 96 (141415) but wouldn't mind a better one!

I have already dumped lots of rare candy into raikou so have ability to max out one, but would probably want two on my team.

Passes >>> Incubators > lucky egg

You can get dust and crap pokemon anywhere so incubators are redundant. The only place where you can get rare candy, Golden razz, and legendaries is raids.

Also, level/xp doesn’t matter at all.

while i always buy an incubator when i get a 10k egg that's more habit than anything, got hundreds of candy even for chansey/dratini/larvitar and it's dust i'm always needing. rare candy (and catching the raid boss itself) is handy but neither generous nor guaranteed returns.

i'd have to answer both or neither. i favour the latter - only use a paid incubator for 10k's and stick to my free passes unless a raid i really want pops while i'm already out with the team (ttar or local current legendary raikou). far better to save coins for event boxes/sales especially with gen3 coming almost certainly next month - gonna be more items and storage needed.

Incubators, but only use them on 10ks. I like to save up enough coins so I can afford to purchase 8 Incubators, meaning I could hatch 9 10ks at once, and only use them in those situations. Any coins more than that and only then will I buy some premium passes, formerly box and bag upgrades, but for now I've maxed both.
