Pokémon TCG Pocket puts Pack Hourglasses and Nine-Card Frame backdrop up for grabs in new Summer Event missions
Get ready for a sizzling summer
- Get Pack Hourglasses and Trade Tokens for free
- Clear missions until July 30th
- You might want to hoard those Trade Tokens until the Trade feature update
Hot on the heels of the Trading feature revamp announcement, Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket is once again making headlines (or, at least, our headlines) with its new Summer Event Missions that are now well underway.
While it's not as mindblowing as yesterday's announcement, this one is still pretty exciting, especially since there's a Nine-Card Frame backdrop up for grabs - and it's not even all that hard to add to your collection.
In the latest update to Pokemon TCG Pocket, you can look forward to clearing missions to obtain Pack Hourglasses and Trade Tokens, which is a tad odd since - as you might or might not know - these will soon be discontinued when the Trade feature update rolls out on July 29th. You can still use them to redeem Pack Hourglasses and Shinedust though, so I suppose it can't hurt to have a bunch of them in your back pocket.
As for the missions themselves, all you have to do is Wonder Pick three times, participate in five battles, or use stamina to open five booster packs - the rest of the missions are along similar lines. Honestly, it's not hard to clear all these as you're doing your dailies anyway, so I think it's pretty safe to say you'll be getting that Nine-Card Frame sooner than you might think.
In any case, the Summer Event Missions will run until July 30th, so there's plenty of time to go through them all.
If you're keen on joining in on all the fun, you can check it out on the App Store or on Google Play - or better yet, you can vote for Pokemon TCG Pocket in our Pocket Gamer People's Choice Award 2025! This runs until midnight on July 31st, so you'd best get voting while you can.
