The special event inPokemon Trading Card Game Pocketwill only be around for a week, and players will want to log in every day in order to claim all of its bonuses.
Pokemon TCG Pocketwas announcedin February 2024 and, after much anticipation from thePokemoncommunity, finally made its way to mobile devices on October 30. Following a busy December that saw the release of new premium rewards, battle and Wonder Pick events, and the debut of its fourth pack of cards, the mobile card battler is already offering players its first set of new rewards for January.
The initial reward players will receive when they first log in is an event-exclusive Pikachu promo card. With 60 HP and a gnaw attack that deals out 20 base damage for the cost of a single Lightning energy, this card functions exactly like the base Pikachu card contained in thePokemon TCG PocketGenetic Apexcatalog. However, unlike that card, which utilized the classic chubby Pikachu imagery from the physical trading card game’s original series, this promo card features modernized artwork showing Pikachu leaping towards the player, surrounded by Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Eevee.
