Pokémon TCG Pocket Leak May Have Just Revealed All Events & Rewards Until February 2025

3 weeks ago 18

A recent datamine may have revealed the upcoming list of events for Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket.Pokémon TCG Pocket recently released Mythical Island, its first-ever expansion. The new set adds over 80 new cards to the game, including a potent new Celebi ex and Serperior combo. It's expected that Mythical Island is a "mini-set" that will be followed up by a larger set early next year. However, while some of this information was available via datamines, Pokémon TCG Pocket has mostly kept mum about future releases and events.

Shortly after Pokémon TCG Pocket released Mythical Island, dataminers obtained a new list of likely events from the game. This list, which can be seen in the Reddit post below, should not be taken as definite, largely because Pokémon TCG Pocket hasn't actually made a comment about its future event schedule.

However, assuming the list is accurate, players can look forward to free Mythical Island packs, new Wonder Pick events, and a new slate of solo and multiplayer battle events. This isn't the first time datamines have offered a first look at plans for the game, and it's likely that it will have at least some bearing on reality.

What Events Are Coming In Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket?

Wonder Pick Events, Mass Outbreak Events, And Giveaways Are Allegedly Coming To Game

Assuming that the list is accurate, players can expect the following schedule of events over the next month, several of which should be familiar:

  • December 20th - January 10th: Mythical Island Emblem Event
  • December 25th - January 1st: Lightning Pokémon Mass Outbreak Event
  • January 1st - January 15th: Blastoise Solo Battle Event
  • January 8th - January 22nd: Charmander and Squirtle Chansey Pick
  • January 20th - January 27th: Mythical Island SP Emblem Event
  • January 23rd - January 29th: Psychic Pokémon Mass Outbreak Event

In addition to the events listed above, Pokémon TCG Pocket is also allegedly giving away a series of log-in bonuses that include 36 Pack Hourglasses and 4 Mythical Island packs between Christmas and New Year's Day. Another giveaway for 24 Pack Hourglasses, 4 additional Mythical Island Packs, and a Pikachu promo card will run from January 1st through January 8th.

The Emblem Event will challenge players to collect a certain number of wins, while the SP Emblem Event focuses on building up a 5 match win streak. The Mass Outbreak and Chansey Pick events will both involve use of the Wonder Pick function. Interestingly, the log-in bonus events will be the first time that Pokémon TCG Pocket gives away free full packs of cards, hinting at future plans.

Our Take: A Full January For Pokémon TCG Pocket

The list feels accurate because it includes several familiar events, plus some well-timed log-in bonus events that line up with the holiday. I like that we're getting more events and overlapping events in January, as it will help players keep logging in for reasons that don't involve opening up card packs.

I'll admit that I'm not a fan of the SP Emblem event returning, as I feel like the win streak requirement is very arbitrary and was gamed by a lot of players during the last event. I'm also curious how trading will eventually impact Pokémon TCG Pocket events when that feature launches early next year.
