Just a few days after its release, Pokemon TCG Pocket has already had two in-game events that offer some special cards. The Lapras ex card drop is the second in-game event in TCG Pocket. This event runs from November 5, 2024, till November 18, 2024. Lapras ex is a part of the special Promo-A expansion pack, which contains some basic cards in an alternative artwork. All of the cards in this set share the same rarity with their normal counterpart, save from Lapras ex.
During this time, you can participate in the in-game event and stand a chance at getting a Lapras ex card. In this article, we will mention exactly how you can get the Lapras ex card in Pokemon TCG Pocket, along with all the other details related to it.
How To Obtain a Lapras ex in Pokemon TCG Pocket?
You will have to take part in solo battles (PvE) in the special Lapras ex Drop Event. You can solo battle against four PvE decks here:
Deck | Difficulty |
Lapras Deck (Genetic Apex) | Beginner |
Lapras & Starmie Deck (Genetic Apex) | Intermediate |
Lapras ex Deck (Genetic Apex) | Advanced |
Lapras ex & Starmie ex Deck (Genetic Apex) | Expert |
Initially, only the Beginner Lapras deck will be available for you to beat. Defeating each difficulty will unlock the next variant for you. These battles require a special Event Stamina. Once you win these, you will have a chance to get the Promo Pack A Series Vol. 1 pack.
You can pull one of five cards from the Promo Pack A Series Vol. 1:
- Lapras ex
- Mankey
- Pikachu
- Clefairy
- Butterfree
Each Promo Pack contains only one card from the Promo-A expansion. If you are lucky, you can get a Lapras ex card by opening one of these packs. Essentially, you need to rely on the element of luck twice to get the Lapras ex card in Pokemon TCG Pocket – obtain the card from gacha and then pull a Lapras ex from the pack.
Since there are multiple luck factors here, Lapras ex will be quite a rare card. Your best option is to keep completing these Solo Battles over and over again to get more Promo-A packs and open them to get Lapras ex in Pokemon TCG Pocket.
