The Alcremie Drop Event ran from July 2, 2025 to July 12, 2025.

This event allowed players to participate in solo AI battles featuring the Alcremie card, along with receiving useful rewards by completing battle-related missions.

Use Event Stamina to Participate in the Event

To participate in solo battles, you will need to use Event Stamina. Event Stamina is consumed for each win, meaning that losing won’t affect your stamina in this mode.

Additionally, you can replenish Event Stamina with Event Hourglasses, which you can earn as rewards from the beginner and intermediate solo battles, or Poke Gold.

How to Get the Event Hourglass

You can also get a Promo Alcremie card along with other promo cards from Promo-A Vol. 10 as a Alcremie Drop Event reward.

You have a chance to get this pack whenever you complete a match against the AI, but expert battles are guaranteed to reward you with this pack, so it is a good idea to farm these matches to collect all the cards!

Best Cards to Pull in Alcremie Drop Event

Best Cards to Draw from the Alcremie Drop Event
Alcremie Dragonair

The highlight card, Alcremie, is one of the best cards to pull from this set. If set up properly, it is able to OHKO high-HP threats with Sweets Overload.

Dragonair is also a good card to pull. It is able to heal itself with Shed Skin, allowing it and its evolutions to avoid being in KO range.

Additionally, there have not been any reruns of promo cards so far. There is a chance that these cards will no longer be available to get once the event period is over.

Sweets Relay Deck (Eevee Grove) Solo Battle Guide

In Event Solo Battles, you can battle against different decks that scale on difficulty. Once you have defeated a deck, the next deck will be unlocked containing harder cards than the last.

There are only 4 levels of Solo Battle: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Expert—with Expert giving you a guaranteed card pack pull from the event.

Use Fast Metal-Type Pokemon

Alcremie and its teammates are weak to Metal-type Pokemon. With a good Metal-type deck that doesn't require too much setup, you should be able to knock out the Sweets Relay Pokemon before they can power up Alcremie sufficiently.

Best Metal Type Deck and Cards Tier List

KO Milcery or Alcremie Early

Alcremie can OHKO all of your Pokemon once properly set up, so it is ideal to knock it out early.

Sabrina and Cyrus can draw them out to the Active Spot, but you can also use cards that can damage Benched Pokemon such as Pheromosa.

Losing Does Not Consume Stamina

Losing or conceding during the event battles does not consume Event Stamina, as it is only used up whenever you win a match.

This means that if you lose against your AI opponent or fail to complete one of the missions you are trying to complete, you can always try again without worrying about your stamina!
