How to Obtain Bulbasaur and Magnemite
Players can acquire the Promo-A Bulbasaur and Magnemite through two methods: Bonus Picks and Chansey Picks.
Bonus Picks
A Bonus Pick offers a free Wonder Pick chance with a 25% likelihood of rewarding the Promo-A Bulbasaur or Magnemite. Be aware that these picks may yield regular variant cards instead of Promo-A versions.
Chansey Picks
Chansey Picks, on the other hand, guarantee Promo-A card drops with each pick costing two Wonder Stamina. The chance of receiving either Bulbasaur PA-23 or Magnemite PA-24 ranges from 25% to 80%. The distribution of cards can vary, but both cards will be included in every pick.
Frequency of Picks
According to unconfirmed data-mined information, the Bonus and Chansey Picks refresh with each public update, believed to occur every 30 minutes to an hour. Each refreshed Wonder Pick has a 20% chance of a Bonus Pick and a 2.5% chance for a Chansey Pick.
What’s Next? Wonder Pick Event Part 2
Part 2 of the Bulbasaur and Magnemite event will kick off on December 13 and will run until December 20. This segment will introduce new missions and additional thematic accessories to the Event Shop.
Rewards for Part 2
The primary rewards will include a Venusaur-themed icon, coin, playmat, and card sleeve, all available at the Event Shop.
Tips for Maximizing Your Gains
To make the most of the Wonder Pick Event, consider the following tips:
- Utilize Bonus Picks instead of wasting Wonder Stamina on Chansey Picks early on.
- Save your Wonder Stamina for the event’s final days if luck hasn’t been on your side.
- Hold onto your Event Tickets until Part 2 begins to unlock all Venusaur-themed accessories.
- Check for new Wonder Picks regularly, as they may refresh often.
