[Feedback] Event tickets

With the start of the first Wonder Pick event, Event Shop Tickets were introduced, together with three Meowth-themed items in the dedicated shop section. These can be obtained by completing a handful of event quests and from Bonus Picks, and are set to be entirely deleted once the current Wonder Pick event finishes (it says so on the app). The problem with this is that, once you have acquired all three items in the event shop (which doesn't take very long), the tickets you get from the Bonus Pick automatically become unusuable, giving you a 2/5 chance to get "nothing" from the pick.

What I'd like to see is some way to use these excess tickets once the event shop has been cleared. There could be, for example, an uncapped exchange in the event shop for hourglasses (of either of the three kinds), normal shop tickets or even shinedust. If you'd rather not have an exchange in the shop that could discourage people from prioritising the event cosmetics, the trade could be done automatically and only when the event tickets expire.

As of right now, my understanding is that all those Bonus Picks where I happened to pick an event ticket rather than something else will essentially be "wasted" once these tickets expire, as there is no way for me to get anything out of them, and that feels kind of bad.

    I can fully agree and support this. Currently sitting on an additional 12 tickets for the current Blastoise event, after buying everything. Every wonder pick is just giving me more, which is getting rather frustrating. Having them convert to shop tickets, or no cap on stardust would be awesome. It’s supposed to be a fun relaxing game, but not getting a card and instead getting something useless is a big turn off.
