Pokemon TCG Pocket players are in for a treat as they can earn free rewards for a limited-time to prepare for the upcoming expansion.

Pokemon TCG Pocket has just unveiled its upcoming expansion called Mythical Island, featuring big cards such as Mew Ex and Aerodactyl Ex, along with a plethora of other cards to add to your collection.

Of course, all of these additions sound very exciting if you’ve been hoarding Pack Hourglasses for this exact moment. Though it’s a different story for some who may not be strong enough not to spend them to open more cards.

Here’s the full rundown of the time window for claiming the rewards each day during the campaign period:

  • December 16 (10 PM PST) – December 17 (9:59 PM PST)
  • December 17 (10 PM PST) – December 18 (9:59 PM PST)
  • December 18 (10 PM PST) – December 19 (9:59 PM PST)

If you want to grab the new cards early, then you wouldn’t want to miss out on claiming the Pack Hourglasses reward each day. Whether you want to spend all of them immediately or wait it out afterward is, of course, up to you.

However, it’s worth keeping in mind that while these are essential to open more booster packs, you can always try your luck in Wonder Pick to get cards from the new set. They’re not always guaranteed, though, as the chances are random.
