Pokemon TCG Pocket’s next event items go live early, confusing players

The support Pokemon TCG Pocket has had from DeNA and Creatures Inc. since launch has been nothing short of fantastic with content being consistently added to the game.

While the Mythical Island pack is the biggest drop recently, it is the constant events that are being made available that are bringing players back each and every day.

There haven’t been many mishaps since the initial release of TCG Pocket but now, it appears the next event has been ‘leaked’ via the Wonder Pick system.

New Pokemon TCG Pocket event goes live ahead of launch

If you’ve loaded up Pokemon TCG Pocket on January 7, 2025 and have seen an interesting Bonus Pick in the Wonder Pick section, you’re not alone.

It appears that a portion of the next in-game Event has launched ahead of time, confusing those who are encountering it.

As for what is on offer in these Bonus Pick Wonder Picks, there are new Promo cards available including both Squirtle and Charmander.

Bulbasaur was available previously in a similar Bonus Pick so it makes sense that both Squirtle and Charmander make their way into the game to complete the trio of Kanto starters.

There’s also a chance to pick up a green Event Shop Ticket which when inspected a little more closely, has Blastoise naming tagged on the end.

This, therefore, strongly suggests that akin to that of previous Event Shop Tickets, you’ll be able to add these to your stores and spend them on Blastoise-themed items from the shop.

Since the Event isn’t live yet, there are no accompanying missions to complete but once these are made available, you’ll likely be able to make inroads on these to gain even more Shop Tickets.

We’re sure that an official word from Pokemon TCG Pocket socials will go out in due course both acknowledging this slip up as well as potentially announcing everything that’s to come in the next Event.
