As a seasoned Pokemon Trainer with memories of collecting cards stretching back to the 90s, I can confidently say that the December refresh for the Pokemon TCG Pocket Premium Pass has me buzzing like a Thunder Shock! The new rewards, themed around every trainer’s favorite electric mouse, Pikachu, are simply electrifying.

The initial update for premium features in the Pokémon TCG Pocket mobile game, which was launched in October, has now been released. This update includes numerous new cosmetic items that can be unlocked, as well as a promotional card that was earlier leaked and can now be earned.

For owners of the TCG Pocket Premium Pass who have paid for their subscription, rewards will be similar to those from last November. These rewards are divided into two categories: deck and board customization items inspired by a particular Pokemon (Pikachu in this instance), and a unique promo card with full-art design that cannot be acquired through other methods.

Except for the Mewtwo promotional card, which can be acquired just by logging in with an active Premium Pass, all other rewards require purchasing with Premium tickets, which are earned through completing Premium missions.

See below for all the rewards and their associated unlock criteria.

Premium Pass Missions & Rewards

Beyond what’s already stated, those with Premium Passes will also unlock a revamped collection of tasks. Finishing these tasks grants an assortment of rewards such as Packs and Wonder Hourglasses.

Missions can advance even without an active pass, yet for collecting their corresponding rewards, a current subscription is required. Here’s the complete rundown.

Moreover, this is complemented by the daily booster packs that subscribers can open as an added benefit.
