Acquiring Promo-A Squirtle and Charmander

Both Parts 1 and 2 offer "Bonus" and "Rare" Wonder Picks with varying drop rates for the Promo-A Squirtle and Charmander.

Essential Tips for Wonder Pick Events

  • Ticket Carryover: Tickets remain in your inventory until January 29th. A total of 31 tickets is needed for all rewards (if data mining is accurate).
  • No Notifications: The game doesn't notify you of Bonus or Rare Picks; check regularly.
  • All Picks Count: Any Wonder Pick contributes to mission progress.
  • Strategic Rare Picks: Prioritize Bonus Picks for Promo-A cards; only use Rare Picks if nearing the end and missing cards.
