Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket launched on smartphone devices earlier this week, and now that it's available, The Pokémon Company is already teasing some promo cards and events.
We don't have specific details just yet, but it seems this first event could feature a promo Lapras EX card and a 'Wonder Pick' Meowth card. Here are the official words and graphic for this announcement:
"We plan to hold a series of events in #PokemonTCGPocket! Please stay tuned for more info! I'm pumped and hope you are too."


It's worth noting how "Wonder Pick Event 1" is already underway and runs from 1st November until 15th November. The promo cards featured in this particular event are Chansey and Meowth. You can unlock some accessories as well including a Meowth cover and backdrop.
The Pokémon Company has also shared some tips social media on how trainers can get the most out of their experience in launch week. If you complete a bunch of missions, you'll obtain the following items:

Yup did all that, got all those, opened all the packs. Did rhe free trial of the gold pass to get the Pikachu card and then unsubbed. Now the drip feed of two packs a day
Looking forward to whatever I can get from these events without spending a dime (so far got the Meowth shown in the picture)!
I'm not sure whether it's worth trading tickets for hourglasses. There were some nice cosmetics you could buy, so I think I'll just hold on to them and see if we get more of those.
I have downloaded it and I am just collecting cards as the actual game itself make no sense to me at all
I wonder how sustainable their model is. I'm sure there are people who pay, but anyone who is financially responsible just won't spend any money on the game. If enough people do it free, they won't make very much money then will probably shut it down
@Grim You get what you pay for, in this case, nothing.
@The_Blue_Mage You don't have to worry, every TCG/CCG has financially irresponsible players called whales who will be making up 95% of all purchases across all users. The average free-to-play Joe not spending a dime will not hurt their bottom line when the whales exist.
