The Mega Pidgeot ex Drop Event ran from November 18, 2025 to November 28, 2025.
This event allows players to participate in solo AI battles featuring the Mega Pidgeot ex card, along with receiving useful rewards by completing battle-related missions.
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
| Mission | Reward |
|---|---|
| Participate in 1 battle | Promo Pack B Series Vol. 1 x1 |
| Participate in 3 battles | Promo Pack B Series Vol. 1 x1 |
| Participate in 5 battles | Promo Pack B Series Vol. 1 x1 |
| Participate in 10 battles | Promo Pack B Series Vol. 1 x1 |
| Participate in 15 battles | Promo Pack B Series Vol. 1 x1 |
| Participate in 10 battles |
A new set of missions have been made available for this event. Completing event missions will reward you with Promo Packs and an Exchange Ticket. You may use the Exchange Ticket to obtain an event card from the Shop.
These event missions are only available for the duration of the event. You will no longer be able to complete them once the event ends on November 28, 2025.

You can also get a Promo Mega Pidgeot ex card along with other promo cards from Promo-B Vol. 1 as a Mega Pidgeot ex Drop Event reward. In addition to this, you may get one card of your choosing from the Event Shop using the Exchange Ticket you get from completing event missions.
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!

The best card to get would be Mega Pidgeot ex. Its Giant Twister attack can discard the Energy of your opponent's Pokemon, making it good against Pokemon with high Attack Costs. If you have trouble pulling it, it may be good to get it in the Event Card Shop.
You may also want to pull Froakie. It has a different move compared to other available Froakie cards, which allows it to inflict Paralysis.

Whenever you receive a promo pack as a reward, you can open it in your gift list found in the upper right of the main menu.
A pack only contains one of the available promo cards, so try to get and open as many packs as you can!

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.



You may use Lightning-type attackers such as Tapu Koko ex and Zeraora. If you are facing Mega Pidgeot ex, you may use Pom-Pom Oricorio to nullify any damage you might take.
These Pokemon either have low Attack Costs or can generate Energy, which means that they can quickly recover if they are hit by Giant Twister.


You may KO Pidgey and Pidgeotto early to avoid facing Mega Pidgeot ex. If they are Benched, you may put them in the Active Spot using Sabrina or Cyrus.



Mega Pidgeot ex does not deal much damage, so bulkier Pokemon will likely survive at least two attacks. You may improve the survivability of your deck by adding cards that can heal, making your Pokemon stay out of KO range for longer.
| Deck | Commentary |

Mega Ampharos ex and Raikou ex Deck |
