Promo Reissue Event is disappointing
I think it's wrong that the Reissue event only awards a single ticket for the Pokémon Card Pocket promo drop exchange and the Wonder Pick exchange.
Think about this: the event lasts 10 days, there are 12 event battles, and Event Power is 5 with one point restored every 12 hours. It takes two days and 12 hours to fully refill. The card chance is only 12.66%. The balance is off. Time is extremely limited.
The same applies to the Chansey Pick. There are 22 Wonder Pick cards, and a 10-day period is far too short to have a 20% chance to pull the card you want from the Chansey Pick.
For the next Reissue event,
#1. I hope the event period will be extended and the promo pack drop chances increased (I recommend one month).
#2. If you can't increase the drop chances, then either change the drop event battles to Expert difficulty and add "Exchange Tickets" to battle rewards with a 75.5% drop rate, or remove Event Power entirely so players can draw freely and without stress.
*Honestly, I wish Event Power would be removed completely
For the Reissue Wonder Pick, it would be good to add "Card Exchange Tickets" to mission rewards and bonus picks so players can buy additional cards.

I agree.
I did not start playing from the beginning of the launch and I missed all 5 cards from the 1st drop event and 2 cards from chansey pick. For me it sounded easy to catch up, but in practice the process was extremely tedious.
- for cards from drop events, more than often you are going to be frustrated seeing duplicates piling up when you are just missing those last one or two cards. Being forced to open them one by one was also still annoying. Being able to trade only one card from the shop merely helped easing the workload.
- Chansey picks would be completely luck based. All you could do is to constantly check your app to see if the ones are on the board. Missing the chance is not just frustrating and resouce-consuming, but anxiety is also piling up since you know clock is ticking for the event.
I was lucky that I didn't miss out on too much. Yet it took me 3 days to fill all the 7-card blanks, only to successfully pick the meowth and then buy chansey with the given ticket. I can only imagine how much work and stress it means if one misses out so much and wanted to complete the dex with this event.
Of course some players may say it is not compulsory to complete the dex and therefore 'suffer'. That is true, and I do not expect my experience to be accepted by everybody, but to those who may anknowledge and feel related.
