Thanks for all the great info!! Super excited for the launch! 🙏

Almost considered how that nickname might be kind of sus for that reason 👮‍♂️

People are expecting there to be a trade function, though I’m not sure it’s actually confirmed yet.

Totally agree. They'd be smart to model after SNAP. It really is an amazing game -- very SNAPPY (har har) gameplay but plenty of strategic depth, and the cosmetic treatments on cards look insane. My only big critique (and honestly why I quit) was just how greedy the monetization felt. Obviously Pocket needs to get its bag too, and maybe the vicious monetization is just a necessary evil, but I hope it can somehow feel less blatant than SNAP did to me.

Anything will be better than snaps $75 bundles I cannot wait for pocket

haha thanks Kristin! 😊

Thanks brotha! I know you get it too bc I've seen your videos! Hopefully we'll chat sometime. Cheers

@@pokemahan ahah thanks, yeah I hope so :D I also feel like I'ma TCG Pocket waiting room ahaha

@cardkeepertoby I think it’s inspired us both to make some videos again! 😆

No, all the sets on Pocket will be specific to Pocket. None of the sets we currently know will be on there!

Thank you for your comment. It has been selected as a prompt for my daily creative writing exercise: I understand and sympathize with the, "you will own nothing and be happy meme". Housing and cars are way too expensive, gotta just rent and lease. Music, software, etc. is never owned anymore. Everything is digitized and sold to us as a monthly subscription to maximize year-over-year profits for shareholders. But sometimes I think about it more deeply and arrive at the conclusion that ownership of anything is an illusion -- that anything we own is owned merely for the duration of the short lives we have on Earth. And it's often even shorter than that, as our interests ebb and flow throughout life. You can own "stuff," but eventually, as you grow old, you will realize that the only meaningful things are your experiences. I think Pocket will be around for a while, and I think its servers will do a fine job of hosting our sparkly little pixel-based Pokemon cards inside our phones. And I think, in a way, we WILL own them. But more importantly, we'll enjoy the experience. Namaste 😭

I really don't think it will be! if anything it should be really cheap and easy to build good decks, and expensive to bling them out :D

lmaooo fr, it was painful watching it back. horrendous lighting and dome brighter than the sun.

yeah for sure. lots of games have some kind of monthly pass and it's usually worth it

It's fascinating how many people assume something like this should be free, even though it doesn't make sense. I don't expect other video games to be free. I agree with you-$10 a month is a fair price for something that brings you joy and occupies your time.

I could totally be wrong about the symbols, but we'll see!

Code cards as currently found in booster packs won't be usable on Pocket. It seems like they want to keep this completely separate from the current TCG.

@@pokemahan its a shame i have atleast 2000 unused ,thanks for letting me know ⚡️

@@azianzenzation oh wow, that’s a ton. You could also sell them if you don’t want to use them on PTCGL.

@@pokemahan il have a look ,thank you ⚡️

😂

haha thank you so much! I've been wildly inconsistent, but hoping Pocket will motivate me

Haha we all do! Looking forward to getting more info soon since we’re apparently only like 2 months from release!

The exclusive Pokemon only ards will the main draw. If those cards stay exclusive to the game then you'll be missing out. Keep in mind that they can do more with the diginal cards. The beautiful scenes are nice but they could do little games and speciality features associated with the cards. If rarity is a factor then even more so to be involved early on.

I sure hope so, that Sabrina card is fire!!!

I don’t expect these to be released in physical form. They want the cards to be exclusive to the app for a variety of reasons.

@@pokemahan yeah I didn't realise you said it was digital form until the end, shame though I think I'd love to see it released as a physical game

No it doesn't, it has game currency but you can't spend irl money to the game itself.

Yes and no. The game expects you to go out into the real world. Find a real life Pokemon booster pack at a shop like Target or Wall Mart. Then find the special code cards inside every pack. Then use those codes to redeem packs in PTCG Live. So technically your spending money on real packs, but you get the virtual packs as well.

Omg how cool! Mine is 10/21 so pretty close too

My is the 30th too. Hope it's good. Tbh

Awesome, will do! 🙏

I'm confused how is this different than the app that's been available for years

Right! I'm also particularly interested in the trading aspect as well. Thanks for stopping by!

Does this mean it's first edition, second edition, or unlimited?

I think you're mainly right, but one big difference is that when the servers for pocket eventually shut down, you lose your entire collection forever, so you can't treat it as an investment like certain physical cards.

There is a huge difference. Ever wonder why no one talks about nft's anymore.

@skum73 I see where you're coming from. I think for those who have invested in physical cards, the value of digital assets might not be as apparent. However, for someone like me, who has always loved TCG but never had the chance to invest, this digital relaunch is incredibly exciting. I’ve often felt that there was no point in starting because I hadn’t started earlier, but now I feel like I can fully participate. Personally, I find a lot of satisfaction in digital assets (maybe I’m just a bit different). In this case, if I'm collecting TCG pocket cards digitally and not collecting the physical ones, the digital version actually holds more value for me. I suppose it’s the same but reversed for those who prefer physical cards (or you could always do both). As for NFTs, they may not be a topic of discussion in your circle, but those who purchased them still own them and may have derived satisfaction from them. It’s similar to how, for the last 10 years, I could have said that no one plays Pokémon cards anymore-just because it wasn’t in my specific group or mainstream doesn’t mean others weren’t enjoying them. As with all things, a digital asset holds value to those who place value upon it. So, I both agree and disagree with your statement in different ways. Thanks for the comment!

thanks homie!

I find it funny that Pokemon will considering pushing people to playing as a profitable model for them. They could literally make Pokemon Pocket a dedicated collection app and it will make more money with less work involved. Pokemon as a brand has the fans, the following and the brand presence to create a fully digital collecting app. All they need to do is to lean into it. I get it as "playing" is still an aspect but IMHO, it's ok if it's secondary. In the case Pokemon go, the competitive "playing" aspect of their game is a very niche aspect of it. More people simply play the game to collect and have no interest in competitive play.

Having a 20 card deck in Pocket, is the same as in Yu-Gi-Oh Links. However, in that game you can choose to have any number of cards between 20 and 30. The lower your deck size, the better your odds of drawing the cards you need.

yeah for sure. i think the only challenge would be replicating the appearance of some of the cards since they're essentially designed for the digital format. HOWEVER, i think it would be sweet if you could open some lotto card on pocket and then they send you a rare physical copy of it, or maybe even award a physical card for getting top 100 ladder or something. lots of cool ways they could incorporate real cards, though i'm not sure they'll want to go that route.
