For completionists playing Pokemon TCG Pocket, the Promo Card section is usually a satisfyingly short list to complete. However, the enigmatic Promo Card 008 is currently causing frustration.
The Promo Card section appeared complete until January 2025 when a new, unobtainable card, Promo Card 008, materialized between Professor Oak (007) and Pikachu (009) in the Promo – A Card Dex. While its existence might have been present earlier, it only recently became visible as a blank slot. This has left players eager to learn how to acquire it.
Although currently unobtainable, investigating the "Related Cards" section (accessible by clicking cards like Red Card 006 or Pokedex 004) reveals a preview of Promo Card 008. It's an alternate art Pokedex featuring Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle.
The card's information indicates it will be "obtained from a campaign," similar to the New Year 2025 Pikachu (Promo 026). This differs from cards acquired through missions or Wonder Pick events, suggesting a promotional giveaway.
The exact release date and method of acquisition remain unknown. However, players seeking to complete their collection can temporarily hide unowned cards via a setting at the top of the screen.
Pokemon TCG Pocket is available now on mobile devices.
