“Pokemon TCG Pocket” Receives 10 Million Downloads and Special Meowth Event, Adds Monthly Hourglasses
According to its official Twitter account, Pokemon TCG Pocket has received over 10 million downloads in its first day. The app received six million pre-registrations leading up to its October 30th launch date.
The app also launched monthly hourglasses in their in-game shop today. A pack of 6x Pack Hourglasses and 6x Wonder Hourglasses will cost 18x Shop Tickets. Once you use 10 of them, you’ll have to wait until the following month to buy them again. (Check out our Pocket guide for more info on the game.)
The first in-game event also started today. Until November 14th, players can complete seven new Event missions:
- Collect 1 Chansey (promo) card. Reward: 1x Event Shop Ticket (Meowth).

Players will have a chance to encounter a Chansey and Meowth promo in new, special sections of Wonder Pick. Collecting the promos will complete the above missions.
During an event period like this one, there will be two new sections that may show up in your Wonder Pick menu when it refreshes every hour or so. They are called “Bonus Pick” and “Chansey Pick.” The promo cards may appear in these sections along with other items. The “Bonus Pick,” as the name implies, is free to use and doesn’t require any stamina. The “Chansey Pick” is much rarer, but the home menu of the app will alert you if there is one waiting for you.
Once you’ve earned the special Event Shop Tickets for this event, you’ll be able to purchase the following Meowth accessories from the Events section of the Shop. Each costs 3x tickets:
