From Monday, September 14 through Sunday, September 20, a new Press Start pack drops each day, with every pack inspired by a classic Pokémon game.
Each daily pack contains five specific bounty cards, for 35 total bounties across the full event. Pull one of the exact bounty cards for that day, hold onto it through the eligibility period, and you'll receive a sealed Pokémon anniversary reward in addition to keeping the card.
How Bounties Work
Every Press Start pack has a pre-set list of five bounty cards.
If you pull one of those exact cards:
Keep the bounty card in your collection through the required hold period.
