Secure Your Lapras EX in Pokémon TCG Pocket!
The Pokémon TCG Pocket Lapras EX event is live, offering a limited-time opportunity to add this powerful card to your collection. This guide outlines how to obtain it.
How to Get Lapras EX:
Currently, the only way to acquire Lapras EX is by participating in event battles. These battles pit you against AI opponents using Lapras-themed Water decks. Winning these battles rewards you with Promo Packs. Each Promo Pack contains a single card, with a chance of yielding Lapras EX, along with Mankey, Pikachu, Clefairy, and Butterfree. The drop rate for each card appears to be equal, but success depends on luck.
Maximizing Your Chances:
- Focus on Expert Battles: While all difficulty levels offer a chance at a Promo Pack, only the Expert stage guarantees one per battle. This significantly increases your chances of obtaining Lapras EX.
- Auto-Farming: If you have a Pikachu EX deck, you can auto-battle even the Expert stage, allowing for efficient farming without constant player intervention.
- Event Hourglasses: Completing all battle stages rewards Event Hourglasses, used to replenish your event stamina and continue farming.
Event Duration and Trading:
Remember, the event concludes on November 18th. If you're unsuccessful before then, don't despair! Trading functionality is planned for the future, offering a potential avenue to obtain Lapras EX through player exchanges.
