Less than a month after its initial release in October 30, Pokemon TCG Pocket made over $120 million, and its popularity shows no sign of slowing down.

Pokemon TCG Pocket launched a Electric-Type mass outbreak, focusing on adding electrifying new cards to players’ decks. During the event, players will have an increased chance of encountering and obtaining Electric-type Pokemon cards, like Zapdos, Magnemite, Helioptile, or the most famous Electric-type Pokemon of them all, Pikachu. Players can get these cards through Bonus Picks and Rare Picks in the Wonder Pick pool. On top of these cards, this Electric-type Pokemon mass outbreak event comes with six missions to complete, granting Wonder Hourglasses and Shop Tickets upon completion. This mass outbreak in Pokemon TCG Pocket will run from December 26, 2024 to January 1, 2025.

Similar to the Electric-Type mass outbreak, the Fire event featured unique rewards, collectible cards, and a series of in-game tasks to complete.

A recent Pokemon TCG Pocket leak revealed plans for late 2024 and early 2025, accurately teasing the Mythical Island-themed PvP event and this mass outbreak of Electric-type Pokemon. According to the leak, the next major event in Pokemon TCG Pocket will take place from January 1 to 15, with a new Solo Battle event and a Blastoise promotional card. The next mass outbreak event is reportedly set for January 23, starring Psychic-type Pokemon and an exclusive Mex ex card.
