The Premium benefits page states:
"Do you sometimes feel curious about the eggs at Prof. Rowan's Lab and want to find out their types, rarity and species instantly?
Upgrade the Egg Scanner to Version 2.0 in order to find out three times as fast."

Premium users currently get this boost for free, but there is no way for regular users to scan eggs faster.

So, what if non-Premiums could upgrade the Egg Scanner for a certain price. This wouldn’t remove the boost from Premium users, nor make it cost a fee for them as well, but instead make it available for regular users as well (for a certain price).

This would mean Premium members don’t keep getting all the Lab Legends (by waiting just 10 seconds to see the type, compared to 30), and allows for regular users to have a chance to get them as well.

This would also mean Paldea Research are easier to complete for non-Premiums (as tasks often require you to hatch X eggs of a specific type).



This would be a temporary boost, rather than a permanent item, lasting for a certain duration, sort of similar to flutes. Maybe 24 hours/3 days/1 week are the options. Possibly longer as well - 2 weeks/1 month.

Pricing:
- at current nugget values, I’d probably pay 50 nuggets a week at most. That’s still 2600 nuggets a year. [Premium costs 8000 per year]
- so 10 for 24 hours; 25 for 3 days, and 50 for a week?

Prices/durations can be adjusted if necessary.
