  • End Date: January 20
  • Event Type: Wonder Pick
  • Featured Rewards: Squirtle (P-A) and Charmander (P-A)

January's Wonder Pick Event is an exciting RNG-based activity in Pokemon Pocket, offering players a chance to snag one of the two new Promo-A cards: Charmander (P-A 032) and Squirtle (P-A 033). The first part of the event runs for two weeks, from January 6, 2025, at 10:00 p.m. to January 20, 2025, at 9:59 p.m. local time.

How to Get the Promo-A Squirtle and Charmander

During both parts of the Wonder Pick Event, you can participate in Bonus and Rare Wonder Picks, each with different drop rates for the Promo-A Vol.3 Squirtle and Charmander.

Bonus Wonder Picks

Bonus Wonder Picks are free offers that might include one of the two Promo-A cards (or their regular variants) along with four slots of either Wonder Hourglasses or Event Ticket Shops. While the exact frequency of Bonus Wonder Picks isn't confirmed, data suggests a 20.00% chance of encountering one whenever an event pick appears.

Rare Wonder Picks

Rare Picks have a 2.50% chance of appearing during the event. When they do, they guarantee one of the two featured Promo-A cards. The distribution of the cards in each Rare Pick is RNG-based, with each card occupying one to four slots, resulting in odds ranging from 25% to 80%.

In January's Wonder Pick Event Part 1, you can complete five basic missions to earn Event Shop Tickets (Blastoise). These tickets can then be used in the shop's "Limited-Time / Events" section to purchase new thematic accessories.

Tips and Things to Know About Wonder Pick Events

Here are some useful tips to keep in mind during the Wonder Pick Events:

  • Your tickets will carry over. Event Shop Tickets will remain in your inventory until January 29, giving you a few extra days to decide on your limited-time accessory purchases. Data suggests you'll need a total of 31 tickets to buy all Part 1 & 2 items.
  • No notifications for Rare and Bonus Picks. It's wise to log in every 30 minutes to an hour to check for these picks, as the game won't notify you while you're offline.
  • All Wonder Picks count toward missions. You don't need to spend your Wonder Pick Stamina on event offerings. Any pick during the event will contribute to your mission progress.
  • Strategize your resources. Focus on pulling Promo-A cards from the free Bonus Picks, and only invest in Rare Picks if the event is nearly over and you're missing the P-A variants.
