In the past, some players have criticized Pokemon Pocket for making SP Emblem Events too challenging. However, this hasn't led the developers to change the format, and the recent event follows the same structure as the game's first SP Emblem Event: win five consecutive matches to complete the event and earn participation rewards along the way.

Main Missions List

Best Decks for the Mythical Island SP Emblem Event

Based on the current metagame, your chances of getting consecutive wins are higher with the following decks:

  • Celebi ex and Serperior: This duo has been delivering consistent performance since the release of Mythical Island. Recent data shows Celebi’s decklist has above-average win rates, a critical stat for the SP Emblem Event.
  • Gyarados ex and Greninja: It's been a while since Gyarados ex dominated Pokemon Pocket tournaments, making it one of your best bets for beating the current event based on its success in PvP championships.
  • Pikachu ex and Zapstrika: With Gyarados ex likely dominating event matches, Pikachu ex is an inevitable top pick. This deck allows you to quickly build up your main attacker and devastate the opponent’s Bench with targeted damage.

The Marshadow and Hitmonlee duo has also been a favorite in tournaments and events. Many consider this combination the best response to the current meta, and it's likely to appear in many decks during the Mythical Island SP Emblem Event.
