Pokémon TCG Pocket set to celebrate Pokémon Day by giving away rare freebies


It looks like Pokémon TCG Pocket will offer all players a guaranteed rare card for the franchise's annual Pokémon Day.

Again, whilst not confirmed just yet, it's thought the promotion will kick off on Pokémon Day, with players getting until 30th April to claim their freebies (thanks, TheGamer). We will reserve 3 free Genetic Apex packs with a guaranteed rare card on Pokemon day (February 27) by u/AcrobaticDraft5412 in PTCGP To see this content please enable targeting cookies.
