The Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket has seen remarkable success since its launch, with players accumulating over 40 billion cards. To celebrate this incredible milestone, The Pokémon Company is gifting all players a free promo card featuring new artwork of Pikachu alongside the original starter trio: Charmander, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle. This card functions identically to the existing Pokédex card but boasts a fresh, vibrant design.
This free promo is available now through the in-game gifts menu in Pokémon TCG Pocket. Players are encouraged to claim their gift within the next 29 days to avoid missing out. While a small gesture, free promo cards are always welcome, and this one’s artwork makes it a particularly desirable addition to any collection.

Mythical Island SP Emblem Event
Alongside the free promo card, Pokémon TCG Pocket is also running the Mythical Island SP Emblem event. Active now until January 27th at 12:59 a.m., this event rewards players with emblems for their profiles based on consecutive wins in event matches. This provides a fun way to display in-game skill and offers further incentive for online competition.
Exciting January Updates and Beyond
These updates are just the beginning of an exciting month for Pokémon TCG Pocket players. Within the next 11 days, new cards are expected to be added, potentially through a booster pack similar to Mythical Island or even a full expansion. Additionally, the highly anticipated trading feature is slated to launch this month, with details about its functionality and limitations already revealed.
Looking Ahead to February and Pokémon Day
The excitement continues into February with Pokémon Day on the 27th, commemorating the anniversary of Pokémon Red and Green‘s release in Japan. This annual celebration typically brings announcements for various Pokémon games, including titles like Pokémon Go, Pokémon Sleep, and Pokémon Unite. Hopefully, Pokémon TCG Pocket will also receive some exciting news.
