Pomegranate Cookie

"For my Master!"

- Pomegranate Cookie

Pomegranate Cookie is an Epic Cookie released alongside her pet, Ruby Pomegranate, on September 28, 2018. She has the ability to aid the relay Cookie's run after she runs out of Energy by collecting Pomegranate Piece Jellies during her run.

She also released alongside the Mirror of Malice Treasure, which was made in reference to her own mirror. City of the Millennial Tree was also extended to have several more stages on her release, with her being unlocked at the time via reaching one of the new stages.

She was teased two days before her release with an image showing only her Pomegranate Drop Jelly posted to official Cookie Run social media accounts. Her release was notably the first major flop in a very long time due to her unusual skill causing her to be unusable to the majority of the player base.

Skill
Pomegranate Jellies appear at given intervals. Collect them to transform basic Jellies into Pomegranate Piece Jellies. The Cookie leaves a valuable Pomegranate Drop Jelly after running out of Energy. Pomegranate Drop Jelly provides points in proportion to the number of Pomegranate Piece Jellies collected. Relay Cookie receives an Energy bonus for collecting Pomegranate Drop Jellies, but these Jellies also increase the collision damage. Level Up for more frequent Pomegranate Jelly appearance and more points for Pomegranate Drop Jellies. If there is no relay Cookie, Pomegranate Cookie will not create a Pomegranate Drop Jelly.

The Cookie's magic mirror emits a beam of light towards her, creating Pomegranate Reflection Jellies and destroying obstacles. The stronger the enchanted power, the more frequently the skill triggers and the more points can be earned for collecting Pomegranate Reflection Jellies.

Story
''Dressed in her scarlet ceremonial attire with glimmering pomegranate drop decorations, Pomegranate Cookie was raised in the land of powerful sorcerers as a young priestess to the Sacred Pomegranate Tree. But when she was foretold to follow a great darkness, she started to doubt her upbringing. When an unstoppable dark force overran her homeland, Pomegranate Cookie already knew she had met her destiny, and gladly joined her mysterious new Master...''

Strategy
Notably, when using her, it's best to focus on Pomegranate Jellies. Despite sounding negative and the Pomegranate Piece Jellies seeming harmful, the score boost the Pomegranate Drop Jelly causes is quite high, and the benefits are pretty useful, particularly if the relay is very powerful.

Pomegranate Cookie herself cannot be used as a relay, as she does not have the scoring capability to be of any use as one, and her benefits from being in the lead do not apply in any way to being a relay.

To be avoided in use in Breakout entirely. By the time she is obtained, the player will have many better options at their disposal, and will have no reason to level up her Magic Candy to make her useful. If she must be used there, make sure to avoid collecting her Pomegranate Jellies at all costs, as she will not be able to create a Pomegranate Drop Jelly at the end of her run. Collecting Pomegranate Jellies in this circumstance will just create useless Pomegranate Piece Jellies worth a single point each.
