Pokémon TCG Pocket players, come aboard an exciting new Drop event featuring a host of Promos, including a completely new card: Raichu EX! The Raichu EX drop event starts on October 6, 2025 and ends on October 16, 2025.

Cards obtainable in this event

Drop events let you obtain promo cards by doing solo battles in Pokémon TCG Pocket. You can solo battle against four different decks of increasing difficulty.

• Each time you win, you have between a 51% and 100% chance of getting a ‘Promo Pack A Series Vol. 13.’
• It will come with one of the five promo cards shown below, and the pack can be claimed from the ‘Gifts’ menu on the home screen.

Raichu EX is a brand new Pokémon card. Regigigas and Mimikyu are alternate art reprints of their counterparts from the Space-Time Smackdown and Eevee Grove set respectively. Pikachu and Machamp are altogether new cards. All of them have stamps to mark them as promo cards.

Here are the drop rates of each promo:

• Raichu EX: 12.66%
• Regigigas: 15.82%
• Pikachu: 23.84%
• Mimikyu: 23.84%
• Machamp: 23.84%

Item Rewards

There are a variety of rewards available for each difficulty level, including XP, Hourglasses, Shinedust, and more.

• Hourglasses can be used to decrease the timers on your pack openings.
• Shinedust can be used to add Flair to your Pokémon, which is a cosmetic change only.
• When you have enough copies of a specific card, you can trade copies of it along with Shinedust in order to obtain a Sparkles: Gold Flair, which can then be used on the remaining copies of the same card.
• Once you have unlocked Sparkles: Gold Flair, you can then continue to unlock more expensive Flair.
• Typically, you obtain Shinedust by getting duplicate copies of cards.
