• Pokémon TCG Pocket kicks off the new year with a Wonder Pick event
• The Pokémon featured this time are cult favorites Charmander and Squirtle.
• Get a better chance of catching these top rookies

With 2025 already kicking off with plenty of action among a slew of top releases, it seems inevitable that one of 2024’s most notable launches will kick in. And Pokémon TCG Pocket is certainly coming out of the gate with a new Wonder Pick event featuring fan-favorite starter Pokémon Charmander and Squirtle!

For those who don’t know how Wonder Pick works, you have the opportunity to choose from five random cards featured in booster packs that have been unlocked by players around the world. In this new event, you’ll not only get bonus picks, but you’ll also be able to spend your Chansey pick to catch two Pokemon featured in the event!

Charmander and Squirtle need little introduction to longtime Pokemon fans, as the two were some of the first players you could choose from in the very first installments of the series. So I have no doubt that many of you are eager to get your hands on them!

World of Wonders

To be honest, I always found it a little strange to translate regular TCG rules into the digital world. After all, regardless of the normal activities of collecting, trading and resale, those involved in collecting can still store and display their original cards. With digital technology it’s just not possible, so I feel like you’re missing out on something.

But at the same time, for those who simply want to enjoy Pokémon in the original card battle format, Pokémon TCG Pocket is undoubtedly the best way to do so. It offers all the mechanics, all the cards and all the fun that you can take with you and play anytime without going to your local store.

And if you’re tempted to jump into the fray and give it a try, don’t do it unprepared. Take a look at our list of the best Pokémon TCG Pocket decks to know what to choose!
