News is in full swing on the virtual card game from The Pokémon Company and DeNA. From Sunday, October 18 until Wednesday, October 28, 2026 at 6:59 a.m. (French time), Pokémon TCG Pocket is hosting its 23rd Wonder Pick event. This new event rotation spotlights two exclusive promo cards eagerly awaited by collectors, while paying tribute to one of the most popular figures of the Unova region: the Flying-type Gym Leader Skyla.

Two promo cards to get from the Wonder Pick

At the heart of this event, Trainers can watch for two special draws to appear within the Wonder Pick interface. The famous Kanto starter Charmander stars on a brand-new promo card bearing a collector stamp, while the kindly dragon Drampa also makes its entrance with an exclusive illustration highlighting its silky fur and its support attacks.

As in previous sessions, having these cards appear in your Wonder Pick selection uses up Wonder Stamina, which recharges naturally over time or with Wonder Hourglasses. For players who can’t draw these cards by luck, event missions let you accumulate exchange tickets to directly unlock the coveted promos in the temporary shop.

Profile accessories and card sleeves in Skyla’s colors

Alongside the card collection, a full range of customization accessories can be unlocked throughout the event. Skyla (Carolina in the French version), the Flying-type specialist of Mistralton City, lends her design to a complete cosmetic set:

  • Skyla card sleeves: Dress your favorite decks with official artwork of the aviator Gym Leader.
  • Themed playmat: A duel board in azure and white hues inspired by Unova’s takeoff runways.
  • Profile frame and background: Show off your passion for Gen 5 on your public Trainer profile.
  • Collector duel coin: A metal coin bearing the Jet Badge emblem.
