Dexerto / The Pokemon CompanyPokemon TCG Pocket is filled with powerful, beautiful, and tough-to-get cards – among those are the rarest in the game, Promo cards.
Given it’s a TCG game, it’s no surprise that Pokemon TCG Pocket features a ton of cards, from your favorite ‘mon to the classic trainers many grew up with. However, just like the real card game, getting hold of powerful or rare cards isn’t easy, especially given that you need to pay for some packs and can only unlock the free ones every 12 hours.
There’s also a different type of card available, Promo cards. These are some of the prettiest and rarest in the game, but are often only available for a limited period. We’ve documented every Promo card added to TCG Pocket since it was released in 2024 and how they were originally obtained.
All Promo cards
As of August 14, 2025, 100 Promo cards have been added to Pokemon TCG Pocket.
In the game, while some of these cards are obtainable at any time, others, like those added with a limited-time drop event, can only be added to your collections during the associated event window.
TCG Pocket’s developer hasn’t indicated whether these events will return to give players who missed them the first time around a second chance at adding them to their collections. Hence, it’s important to keep track of them at all times if you don’t want to miss out.
Every Promo card in the game, their details, and how to get them (where applicable) have been listed below:

What are Promo cards?
Promo cards act as unique cards players can get outside of traditional booster packs. The cards themselves aren’t tied to those packs or card sets.
However, if a card is from a Promo set, it will likely have the same stats as its base variant, though some can have different stats or abilities if they’re rare.
How to get Promo cards in Pokemon TCG Pocket
Dexerto / The Pokemon CompanyThankfully, there are multiple ways to get hold of Promo cards in Pokemon TCG Pocket, making them not as elusive as many may think.
Take part in events
The easiest way to grab Promo Cards is by participating in the game’s events. Every new expansion that is added to the game has Drop and Wonder Picks events that feature between 5 to 7 new Promo Cards.
During the first one, players can fight different decks in hopes of winning one Promo Pack after each victory. Unlocking these Promo Packs will give you the Promo cards.
The second one has the Promo Cards featured in special Chansey and Bonus Wonder Picks, so players can get one card for free or in exchange for some Wonder Stamina, depending on the pick.

Buy them in Shops
Not all Promo cards are found in Promo Packs. Some can be found in the game’s Shop and are therefore purchasable with Shop Tickets.
The best way to get these Tickets is from other players when they use your pack during a Wonder Pick or by completing Tutorial missions.
Dexerto / The Pokemon CompanyCurrently, every Promo card available in the store costs 2 Shop Tickets, so you’ll need 14 in total.
Complete Missions
Some Promo cards can be found by completing missions, like the upcoming Mewtwo card.
To unlock the Promo Mewtwo card, for example, players need to collect 5 Mewtwo cards, making it extremely tricky to get hold of. It’s likely that other cards will have the same design as they’re released. However, the only one at the moment is Mewtwo.
There you have it, those are all the current Pokemon TCG Pocket Promo cards available in the game. While hunting for your favorite, be sure to check out some of the Rarest cards you can get or how to get the secret Mew card.
