Digital cards, separate events

TCG Pocket is the mobile card game. These rewards are digital, and its star rarity symbols are different from the physical TCG’s rarity system.

The update

Pokémon TCG Pocket’s second-anniversary events are live, with missions, returning promo cards and gifts for players.

The anniversary campaign offers missions for packs guaranteed to include a two-star rarity card, alongside Gengar accessories. Bulbagarden also reports an extra exchange ticket as an in-game gift, a Mega Rayquaza ex Elite Deck gift and Handy Card Collection Missions for useful Trainer cards. Check the in-game notices for each claim condition.

Two returning-promo events give collectors another opportunity to fill gaps. The Wonder Pick reissue brings back event picks, while the Drop reissue brings back battles that award associated promo packs. Each has missions for tickets that can be exchanged for eligible promo cards.

The official in-game artwork lists the reissues ending November 12 at 9:59 p.m. PST, equivalent to November 13 at 05:59 UTC. The main anniversary campaign ends December 14 at 9:59 p.m. PST, equivalent to December 15 at 05:59 UTC. These deadlines apply to separate events; do not assume all rewards last until December.
