Pokemon TCG Pocket: Unveiling Promo Card 8

For completionists playing *Pokémon TCG Pocket*, the Promo Card section is usually a satisfyingly short list to conquer. However, the enigmatic Promo Card 008 is currently disrupting that peaceful experience for many players.

When Did Promo Card 8 Appear in Pokémon TCG Pocket?

The Promo Card section in Pokémon TCG Pocket seemed complete until, around January 2025, a new, unobtainable card—Promo Card 008—suddenly appeared in the Promo – A Card Dex. This empty slot sits conspicuously between Professor Oak (007) and Pikachu (009).

While the numbering suggests this card may have existed for some time, it wasn't previously visible as a blank space in the card list. Its current prominent display has left players eager to know when they can finally obtain it.

What Is Promo Card 008 in Pokémon TCG Pocket?

Although currently unobtainable, investigating reveals Promo Card 008's appearance. By accessing the "Related Cards" section of cards like Red Card (006) or Pokedex (004), a greyed-out version of Promo Card 008 is visible. It depicts an alternate art Pokedex surrounded by Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle.

Further details on the card's info page confirm its unowned status and indicate it will be "obtained from a campaign." This phrasing mirrors the New Year 2025 Pikachu card (Promo 026), suggesting a promotional giveaway event. Unlike cards acquired through missions or Wonder Pick events, the "campaign" wording is unique, hinting at a special release.

The exact timing and method for acquiring Pokémon TCG Pocket Promo Card 008 remain unknown. However, for those seeking completion, hopefully, its release is imminent. In the meantime, the option to hide unowned cards can provide temporary solace.

Pokémon TCG Pocket is available now on mobile devices.
