[Image: https://platform.polygon.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/02/IMG_5451.png?quality=90&strip=all] Event Stamina is a kind of resource that you need to participate in and collect rewards (like promo cards) from the drop events. There have been several such events since launch and each one typically focuses on a particular Pokémon, like Cresselia ex or Lapras ex. The Event Stamina bar appears in the top right-hand corner of your phone screen when you enter the page for a time-restricted drop event. (Note: There has to be an active live event to see the gauge and the event drop page.) As of this writing, one battle costs one unit of Event Stamina, regardless of the difficulty or rewards you earn from each battle. If you want to battle more than five times in single sitting, then you will have to replenish your Event Stamina. How to get more Event Stamina in Pokémon TCG Pocket Similar to other systems in Pokémon TCG Pocket, the Event Stamina will replenish itself passively over time. It takes 12 hours for one Event Stamina to recharge. If you don’t want to wait, you can use Event Hourglasses to recharge Event Stamina. One Event Hourglass recharges one token of Event Stamina. You can get more Event Hourglasses by participating in the challenges for each drop event. If you get Event Hourglasses from one event, like the Lapras ex drop event or the Cresselia ex drop event, they will work in future events. As of this writing, these hourglasses don’t expire and can be used in any event.
