I was midway through a late-night grind when the Chansey Pick finally blinked into view—my finger hovered, then hesitated. You feel the small, familiar surge: free promo art, a handful of shop tickets, and the nagging thought that the clock is ticking. I’ll walk you through what matters now so you spend your time collecting, not guessing.
Release date and timing — The tournament line wraps around the block
The Pawmi and Paldean Clodsire Wonder Pick Event begins on March 15, 2026 and runs for 16 days. If you miss the window, those free promos vanish until the next rotation.
- Start: Sunday, March 15, 2026, at 11:30 PM PT
- End: Wednesday, April 1, 2026, at 11:29 AM PT
I recommend setting a reminder and checking your Wonder Picks every 30 minutes while you can—the timed refresh matters if you chase the rare Chansey Pick.
Picks and odds — You can hear the spinner whirring in the background
When the update hits, the Wonder Pick screen will show several flavors: the cheap Bonus Pick, regular Picks, and the rare Chansey Pick. I track these events for a living; here’s how the math and timing work in plain terms.
Chansey Pick (rare)
- Contains five promo cards.
- Only a 2.5% chance to appear on each refresh.
Bonus Pick (free)
- Zero cost, usually a single promo card plus wonder hourglasses and Event Shop Tickets.
- 20% chance to appear instead of a normal wonder pick.
Pawmi (Promo B) and Paldean Clodsire (Promo B) are your event promos. They aren’t meta-defining, but they’re clean additions to a collection and can fill deck slots if you’re experimenting. Treat chasing the Chansey Pick like fishing: patience beats panic, and a well-timed refresh can reward you unexpectedly.
How long will the Pawmi and Paldean Clodsire Wonder Pick Event last?
The event runs for 16 days from March 15, 2026, 11:30 PM PT to April 1, 2026, 11:29 AM PT. I advise logging in daily; small tasks stack into enough Event Shop Tickets to claim skins, Shinedust, and both Promo B cards.
How to get all the rewards in the Pawmi and Paldean Clodsire Wonder Pick Event?
Complete the in-game missions and spend your Event Shop Tickets. I recommend focusing on repeated Wonder Picks and targeted collection missions (Lightning and Darkness fits) to quickly gather the shop currency and the Promo Card Exchange Ticket.
Event shop items — The merch table has everything laid out
If you’re collecting cosmetics, the shop is where the event pays off. Progress through simple missions and spend Event Shop Tickets on Arven-themed items and the two promos via exchange tickets.
| Shop Item | Cost |
|---|---|
| Field of Adventure (backdrop) | 3 Event Shop Tickets (Arven) |
| Arven (icon) | 2 Event Shop Tickets (Arven) |
| Arven (playmat) | 10 Event Shop Tickets (Arven) |
| Arven (backdrop) | 3 Event Shop Tickets (Toxtricity ) |
| Shinedust ×50 | 1 Event Shop Ticket (Arven) |
| Arven (card sleeve) | 5 Event Shop Tickets (Arven) |
| Arven (cover) | 3 Event Shop Tickets (Arven) |
| Arven (Pokemon coin) | 5 Event Shop Tickets (Arven) |
| Paldean Clodsire (Promo B) | 1 Promo Card Exchange Ticket |
| Pawmi (Promo B) | 1 Promo Card Exchange Ticket |
Daily participation usually nets enough tickets to claim most cosmetic items and the promo exchanges if you prioritize them.

Want to speed things up? Track drops on Twitter/X, Discord channels, and Reddit threads where players post timestamps for Chansey Pick sightings. TCGPlayer and community builders often log patterns after a few hours—use those signals to plan your sessions.
The Paldean Wonders expansion added these promos, and this is the easiest chance to snag them without spending cash; think of it as a small scavenger hunt where persistence pays off like a well-timed ace in a match.
So, did you manage to snag both Pawmi and Paldean Clodsire or did someone beat you to the Chansey Pick—what’s your play next?
