Pokemon TCG Pocket players have until March 24 at 1:59 AM Eastern to participate in the new Wonder Pick event, with part two picking up later.

The March 2025 Wonder Pick event started just days after Pokemon TCG Pocket observed a major milestone. In the game's first five months of service, Pokemon TCG Pocket passed 100 million downloads worldwide across all compatible devices. Between that and the $120 million in sales the game earned within its first weeks, Pokemon TCG Pocket has been a resounding success for The Pokemon Company and DeNA. Since its October launch, Pokemon TCG Pocket has added new expansions and features to keep players occupied, including the Triumphant Light booster set and the addition of Ranked matches.

Pokemon TCG Pocket Players Want a Specific Full Art Card Added to the Game

Some outspoken Pokemon TCG Pocket players are calling for developer DeNA to add a specific full-art card to its hit mobile game.

Following the Triumphant Light expansion launch, Pokemon TCG Pocket players have a new event to try their luck at. Pokemon TCG Pocket players can participate in a new Wonder Pick event until March 24 at 1:59 AM Eastern. Lucky players can earn promo cards featuring Manaphy or Snorlax while the event is live. These rare promo cards will function exactly like the Manaphy and Snorlax Basic Pokemon cards from the Triumphant Light boosters, but have distinct artwork for players to collect. Manaphy is a Water-type card with 50 HP and the support move Oceanic Gift to funnel other Pokemon with Water Energy cards. By comparison, Snorlax is a beefy Colorless-type card with 140 HP and the move Collapse, which can deal 100 damage at the cost of causing Snorlax to fall asleep.
