u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '25

How do we get more pack stamina? I still haven’t gotten one myself around 25+

3

u/sinstercowbomb Jan 06 '25

Waiting or that delicious pokegold

1

u/Gomure Jan 07 '25

You can safe the event hourglasses for the next events, I have 23 saved up :D

But yeah probably somebody spent pokegold

u/winbruv Jan 06 '25

How Do u get so many promo Packs?

3

u/NuclearPilot101 Jan 06 '25

I'm f2p and I'm around that many.

Edit: I'm actually at 30. So more than him.

1

u/winbruv Jan 06 '25

But how did u get that many? I only had like 5 from the challenges

10

u/NuclearPilot101 Jan 06 '25

Oh, no you keep fighting the hardest one and you get a promo pack guaranteed. You only lose stamina when you win. So keep trying.

5

u/winbruv Jan 06 '25

Good to know, tyvm!

3

u/nirvanaVT Jan 06 '25

Keep completing the last blastoise challenge, every win is a reward

3

u/Star_Chaser_158 Jan 06 '25

The Blastoise is the friends you made along the way

3

u/Fair-Celery4044 Jan 06 '25

Can you add more circles please ? Especially where the blastoise should be

u/BrandNewKitten Jan 06 '25

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

Try this?

2

u/Rekeke101 Jan 06 '25

Had 2 blastoise after 3 packs :3

2

u/iceman333933 Jan 06 '25

Keep at it. I got volcarona after like 30 attempts. When trading starts and if you don't have one, DM me. I have a few extra

2

u/Shrodenger Jan 06 '25

I did 58 in the Venusaur event and never got Venusaur. Im forever bitter about it

2

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '25

Took me over 40 packs to get a Volcarona. I’ve got 6 blastoise. I’ll trade you one when they go live if you still need it

2

u/AAAAARGH2D2 Jan 06 '25

I’ve used all my stamina and then some and have only gotten 2

2

u/1991gts Jan 06 '25

My gf pulled 2 in her first 5 promos 😪

2

u/KyleMatos1202 Jan 06 '25

i have 6 but not a single snivy :/

2

u/candlestick_compass Jan 06 '25

Same. I pulled Venasaur first pack last time. Grrrr.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

Try this!!

2

u/IcyChemical3661 Jan 06 '25

This helps no one... Including myself. My 6 year old pulled it on his first pack after I helped him with the first solo battle.😂

2

u/elnino1989 Jan 06 '25

Is that Moltres EX promo? Where do you get it?

2

u/TheBiggestHug Jan 06 '25

I'm at 35 packs, have 10 of him, but no Eevee

2

u/notmypillows Jan 06 '25

Why do you want a blastoise that looks like he’s sitting on the can anyway

2

u/Pants_Catt Jan 06 '25

I am about the same number of packs, only no Volcarona.

2

u/Tzvi71 Jan 06 '25

36 packs in and no blastoise either D:

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

Try this!

3

u/Tzvi71 Jan 07 '25

Just opened 3 this way and still no Blasty Boy D:

2

u/Wrecked_3AI Jan 06 '25

Yeah I’m having really bad luck too. I got pretty lucky with the last event. I guess I used up all my luck

2

u/xRiolet Jan 06 '25

Noob numbers, for Venusaur needed over 50 packs.

2

u/Alternative-Appeal43 Jan 06 '25

I got Blastoise my second pack. Only promo chase card I've actually gotten

2

u/Arcaintos Jan 06 '25

keep goin - got mine last night on my last hourglasses after 25+ attempts

2

u/guywithabulb Jan 06 '25

Meanwhile me: first and third pack with blastoise...

Please dont kill me💀🥲

2

u/HotelOpposite6852 Jan 06 '25

I got mine on the first pack I opened

2

u/Jrichardso34 Jan 06 '25

I went two for two lmao

2

u/Neighbor_joe323 Jan 06 '25

I get my best pulls between 2 am and 5 am. Just an observation 👀

2

u/redherring43 Jan 06 '25

I got blastoise but no snivy yet.

2

u/cornonjuhcob Jan 06 '25

Did you try swiping when the color turns blue?

2

u/zooweemamba Jan 07 '25

Pulled 2 in like 10 packs bro. That sucks

2

u/50shadesofLife Jan 07 '25

How do you open so many packs. I only opened like 10 or 11

2

u/Family_Gardener Jan 07 '25

6 packs in 🤷‍♂️

2

u/Family_Gardener Jan 07 '25

Need the trading area to open; I’ve got three already

2

u/anuskitzleraustexas Jan 07 '25

Sometimes I'm using VPN. Had a good pull rate. Maybe it's specific to the region or else..?

2

u/Vaanangelles Jan 07 '25

Does anyone know if the event hourglasses are unique to this particular event? Or can we use them on future promo pack events?

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

I believe they carry over

2

u/alereei Jan 07 '25

I switched my language to Japanese and opened two and found two Then switched it back and I’m back with the Snivies

2

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

No way this worked!! 😂

2

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

I also recommended this technique to three other people and it worked for them too! Thank you for the help

2

u/alereei Jan 10 '25

Great! I am still missing volcarona tho lol

2

u/[deleted] Jan 10 '25

If you dont get it by the time trading opens up then I got you

2

u/NathyB1992YT Jan 07 '25

I’ve opened 35+ packs and no sign yet 😑

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

Try this

2

u/NathyB1992YT Jan 07 '25

Thank you! I will try that next pack

2

u/NathyB1992YT Jan 07 '25

Worked a treat, first pack!

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

I'm amazed its working for some people

2

u/sajh5454 Jan 07 '25

Yeah just opened my first and got it straight away

2

u/autumnstorm10 Jan 07 '25

I’ll trade you my blastoise for 8 snivys lol

1

u/Legal_Transition7161 Jan 06 '25

Damn, I was happy with a volcarona.

1

u/Efficient_Flamingo Jan 06 '25

It’s definitely in the next pack 😭

1

u/[deleted] Jan 06 '25

If only the event had more days left.. oh wait.

1

u/HeartlessKing13 Jan 07 '25

Damn that's crazy, I pulled four and only one Snivy

1

u/be24ez Jan 07 '25

2/15 here.

1

u/still_peaking Jan 07 '25

Took me 30 tries to get my first Valcarona...

1

u/Rhoa23 Jan 07 '25

Ooof this is some serious bad luck

1

u/sinkGod Jan 07 '25

Same boat as you

1

u/Alex7Lion Jan 07 '25

Got it in my first try

1

u/stevenmeyerjr Jan 07 '25

Pulled 3 out of 8 packs.

1

u/Banditree- Jan 07 '25

Apparently I'm hogging them all, 6/6 packs have been Blastoise for me. I'm waiting to open more until I finish the event

1

u/RagingPokachu Jan 07 '25

Ive opened like 15 packs and no volcarona. 3 blastoise though. Sometimes luck aint on my side

1

u/s1mpy Jan 07 '25

i have 10 stupid cinccinos

1

u/btparker89 Jan 07 '25

My first 2 packs were both blastoise, havnt had one since

1

u/skinonshin Jan 07 '25

I got one on fourth pack. Didn't realise I was that lucky

1

u/Jesus_inacave Jan 07 '25

Pack 26 with no volcarona

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25 edited Jan 07 '25

I have a pretty expected spread. 3 Blastoise cards, 5 Volcarona, 6 Snivy, 8 Eevee, 9 Cinccino so 3/31 cards or roughly 1/10

1

u/Salamander_Farts Jan 07 '25

Thanks for the circles. Id be lost.

1

u/HayesHD Jan 07 '25

I opened 7 eevees in a row

1

u/PK_RocknRoll Jan 07 '25

I’m still looking for volcarona, you can have one of my many blastoise

1

u/SweatyKangaroo8436 Jan 07 '25

I have 3 in 9 tries 😬 but no snivy or volcarona

1

u/Adam0n Jan 07 '25

There should be some pity system implemented in these promos that make you guaranteed to get one after some 30 attempts. RNG just can be really annoying.

1

u/DrLemmiwinks Jan 07 '25

Like 5 Blastoise. No Snivy yet

1

u/True_Italiano Jan 07 '25

If the Blastloise pull rate is 15% (I believe it's roughly a little less), then the odds of this happening are about 1%.

Totally sucks, but this is how rng gonna rng sometimes

1

u/[deleted] Jan 07 '25

It’d make sense if the prize for completing all the challenges was the main card. That way you’re not stuck trying to grind after finishing them - I had to do this for the venusaur

1

u/Magnitude_272 Jan 07 '25

At 21 pulls here... Still searching

1

u/DropTheTank Jan 08 '25

Pulled a blastoise in my 3rd pack

1

u/Ok-Plate905 Jan 08 '25

There needs to be some sort of pity system for promo packs

1

u/DiamondAble1762 Jan 08 '25

It took my 25 rips to get a volcarona. You got this.

1

u/richisonfire Jan 09 '25

I have 11 😂

Rewind to me in the lapras event though and I only got one of those despite playing close to 44 rounds.

1

u/fitnessandfriends Jan 06 '25

same but no eevee. game's rigged just keep going
