Pokémon TCG Pocket's Summer Event Offers Pack Hourglasses, Frame Backdrop

• Earn free Pack Hourglasses and Trade Tokens
• Complete missions by July 30th
• Consider saving Trade Tokens for the upcoming Trade feature update

Following the recent Trading feature revamp announcement, Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket is back in the spotlight with its ongoing Summer Event Missions.

While not as groundbreaking as yesterday's news, this event offers its own excitement, especially with a Nine-Card Frame backdrop available as a reward—and it’s surprisingly easy to add to your collection.

In the latest Pokémon TCG Pocket update, you can complete missions to earn Pack Hourglasses and Trade Tokens. This timing is somewhat unusual, as these items will be phased out when the Trade feature launches on July 29th. However, you can still exchange them for Pack Hourglasses and Shinedust, so having a stockpile certainly won’t hurt.

The missions themselves are straightforward: Wonder Pick three times, take part in five battles, or use stamina to open five booster packs. The remaining tasks follow a similar level of simplicity. Since you’ll likely complete these naturally through daily play, claiming the Nine-Card Frame should be quicker than you might expect.

The Summer Event Missions are available until July 30th, giving you plenty of time to finish them all.

If you’re eager to join the action, download Pokémon TCG Pocket on the App Store or Google Play. You can also show your support by voting for the game in the Pocket Gamer People’s Choice Award 2025! Voting ends at midnight on July 31st, so be sure to cast your vote before time runs out.
