- These Mystery Boxes are a free way to get Meltan and Melmetal, two rare, mythical, and powerful Pokémon.
- You can use The Mystery Box once every three days, this way you can get a lot of Meltan and Melmetal over time.
- Meltan and Melmetal can be evolved into powerful Pokémon that can be used in both PvE(player vs. environment) and PvP (Player vs. Player) battles.
- The Mystery Box can be used anywhere in the world, so you don’t have to be near a specific location to get Meltan and Melmetal.
Cons:
