It's pretty amusing to me that the game teaches you all about the different progression systems and shops and currencies long before you actually get to the gameplay. Kinda shows where the focus is for these games.
You're pretty much on point honestly. Even the physical Pokémon TCG, at least for me I enjoy collecting more than playing them. Their marketing are almost zero gameplay and most of them are packs opening. Means they know their market well. I doubt it's a f2p friendly game.
That's sad actually I get that they don't want to scare casual audiences with the """complicated""" combat system and want to lure them with cool pokemons but man Let us play the game :'(
I mean the gameplay for this game is extremely boring and face value. All these videos on the decks are so cringe as they try and act like they are doing something interesting. They are just trying to sell digital art to people. It blows my mind that people “collect” digital card games when they literally don’t own any of it. If the game dies or their account is lost everything they had is gone. It’s not theirs.

Hey everybody, thanks for checking out my first video on this new channel!! I want to do a video answering common questions people might have. Do you have anything you want to know about the game? Anything you want my opinion on?
Hey Regis, a few questions, do you feel like the actual card game aspect is taking a backseat to the card opening and art? Additionally what are the changes to the battle mechanisms from base tcg, and do you think they were for the better or the worse? Did they over simplify it?
Such a weird experience to see you open the game and the first 15 minutes are The Pokemon Company explaining how you can give them money to bypass cooldown periods or get exclusive stuff.
I’m actually pretty excited about this. Even when I take a break from snap I still watch your videos so I hope this channel picks up for you and you like the game.
Hmmmmm, on one hand, this could be my first "official" Pokémon game, as well as a look at the TCG itself, and it has some jaw-dropping artwork, but on the other hand, it has everything you can hate about mobile gacha card games, including limits on collecting cards and needless currency systems ... hmmmmm.
From watching this I really wonder if it would have been beneficial for them to come up with a completely new game using the cards. I love collecting but this really didn’t seem like that much fun.
I collected Pokemon cards as a kid, but never learned how to play the actual game. I would just make up rules and didn't know what I was doing. You'd think the packs would come with instructions on how to play (maybe they did but I forgot).
I don't think there's any card game where the packs come with instructions. They usually save those for starter decks and such (products with space for manuals and that come with enough cards for you to actually play). Nowadays maybe there are links for where you'd learn to play though?
@@felizpanda that makes sense. I was always getting booster packs from Target and nothing else. Pokémon's the only physical trading cards I've ever gotten into.
I'm an old fan of pokemon, but I've always struggled with liking more mons than i can use at a time.. this game could be the answer! I can make whole decks centered around all the mons i like! I'm actually kinda hype for this.
Hello Regis! I'm a HUGE fan of yours!! Haven't missed a Marvel Snap upload of yours in months! (even tho i stopped playing it 2 months ago). I am so excited to see you play this game! Lot's of love!! ❤
I’m so excited for this. Pokemon Go made me fall back in love with Pokemon and I’m excited to try another game with real cards like how the physical collect is
Im as blind as you are, but wtf, i havent gotten any star-rarity card in over 100 pulls except the free first one, and you already got two more. If thsts not streamer luck, i dont know what is.
Don't worry, even the Pokémon World Champ gets "corrected" on pronunciations all the time. There's multiple ways that so many people pronounce a bunch of Pokémon that it's going to happen no matter how you say it lmao
Fun fact! That Vulpix art is by Aoki Toshinao, who made children's picture books of Pokemon for Japanese audiences in the 1990s. I believe the art for the card may be from one of those books, but I don't know that for sure. I have a few of them. The art definitely does look a bit weird on a card.
Watching this, makes me think that this feels so similar to the game Dice Masters. There's cards with attack and defence, energy cost, power stats and abilities etc. Such an epic game Dice Masters :) If you ever get chance Regis, check a tutorial of it out, the tutorial is fairly lengthy but if you like superheroes, villains, warhammer, d&d etc etc it's the game to play
Crazy. You strike me as the kind of guy who would know all the original 150 and nothing else, but hearing you stumble through gen 1 names definitely refutes that. They are clearly going for mass appeal here! Like 90% of the pokemon in the first few minutes were from early gens- mostly gen 1, even. Some new(er) stuff randomly here and there, though, like gogoat and dubwool
It’s essentially Pokémon trading card game on mobile. I stopped playing PTCG when I started playing snap a loooot more. Both are super fun games though! When you get crazy cards it gets super fun
I'm really stoked to play this! Just sucks that they basically released an early access version a month before the actual release for players that go through the hustle of "cheating" the system outside of NZ. And for native New Zealanders of course.
damn 20 hours after first video and already doouble my subscribers XD you deserve it all, you are one of my fav content creators. great to see someone get newly into pokemon i was laughing at the pronoouciations cant wat untill you read more of them
I completely planned on making another account, opening all the free packs, trading those over to my main, then deleting the account data & repeating the process. Only thing I am unsure of is if they are going to implement some kind of trade restrictions or like in pokemon go trade resources.
I didnt finish the vid yet so i don't know if you did this already, but add your Arcanine ex into the Rapidash deck! it came with Growlithe, Arcanine's basic.
The first thing I saw about the early release in New Zealand is that people have already come up with super sweaty tryhard exploit decks that will be horrible if it isn't fixed before global launch, so I'm a tad worried
Are there status effects in this game? To me they have been the most interesting part of Pokemon TCG (original). I have not seen any so far, but maybe they just don't want to overwhelm you in the tutorial..
Be sure to take advantage of moltros, as if you're lucky, he can cheat out a lot of energy early. Be careful of the ex rule, where when ex Pokemon are defeated, the opponent gets 2 points!
It's kinda weird to watch Regis so surprised about the original 150 and their names... I mean - this is basically my childhood which was looooong time ago :D
I've played both the Pokémon video games and the card game. Because I've played the video games, I was disappointed in the card game. This is for a number of reasons, but the one thing that is nice is the card art. This might be a way where I can get the cards to look at the art, but not have to spend a lot of money. I just have to log in daily.
Good you picked up on Ekans being snake backwards, but a little embarrassing that you didn’t notice Starmie was actually Eimrats backwards
Just wait until he realizes what Muk is.
It's radiation and trash.

Welcome to the world of Pokémon! Can’t wait to hear you pronounce the 1025 Pokémon names and see your thumbnails
Are there legit 1025 of these dudes???
Yes
@@regispokebinyup
And counting :)
1025 names.
This does not include the fact that some pokemon have alternate forms which can change their appearance, stats, and abilities.
But don't worry. Some pokemon are suspiciously similar entirely coincidentally. Like Dugtrio (a mole) and wugtrio (an eel).
Completely different.

Hey everybody, thanks for checking out my first video on this new channel!!
I want to do a video answering common questions people might have. Do you have anything you want to know about the game? Anything you want my opinion on?
Regis, I want to know about pack drop rates for specific rarities. Can you show us that? Thank you! -Other Regis
Regis, I'd like to know if you think this game will have "meta" cards or decks? Thank you! -Yet Another Regis
Hey Regis, a few questions, do you feel like the actual card game aspect is taking a backseat to the card opening and art? Additionally what are the changes to the battle mechanisms from base tcg, and do you think they were for the better or the worse? Did they over simplify it?
Regis, i want to know your opinion on pancakes, also this game looks cool.
- you wouldn't believe it, not Regis
I'm just starting the video but if you don't answer be interesting to understand how the monetisation works.
Such a weird experience to see you open the game and the first 15 minutes are The Pokemon Company explaining how you can give them money to bypass cooldown periods or get exclusive stuff.
Ugh
I feel its closer to duel links than it is to snap
I can't wait for everyone to start abbreviating Pokemon pocket to just PP. "Did you guys see the new PP update?" It's gonna be great
I play with my PP every day.
@@regispokebinThat is nice to hear. Do you have a big deck though?
We made it NZ 🇳🇿🤣🤣
Proud to be here with all my fellow New Zealanders!

Regis. I've been playing pokemon for close to 20 years and I never noticed that Ekans is snake backwards...
I hope you’re have a good time at New Zealand Regis 🥂 I might travel there to play some pocket as well 😉

Of *course* you’re from New Zealand! The Kiwi accent is so obvious now!
From watching this I really wonder if it would have been beneficial for them to come up with a completely new game using the cards. I love collecting but this really didn’t seem like that much fun.
It’s a lot more fun Version of the tcg, once you play it you’ll be addicted
@@crimson_reigns8987: It looks like a substantially worse version. Almost no complexity
Regis x Pokemon is the crossover I never knew I needed
I love the "Thank You" mechanic. It's nice to send good vibes to your opponent after a match.

@@felizpanda that makes sense. I was always getting booster packs from Target and nothing else. Pokémon's the only physical trading cards I've ever gotten into.
Even after reading the instructions, I had no idea what they were talking about. At least the Yu-Gi-Oh show actually included the rules.
"Do you or do you not feel Ponita?" was the only thing in my mind every time you said "Ponita" in that way haha
When I first saw this announced I got really excited and wanted to download it instantly
Following you from Snap so I’ll def be watching
I'm an old fan of pokemon, but I've always struggled with liking more mons than i can use at a time.. this game could be the answer! I can make whole decks centered around all the mons i like! I'm actually kinda hype for this.

I'm so happy you're covering this!!! I visited new Zealand today (virtually). 😅
The menu UI is so plain right now I thought you had like a google drive or an email inbox open. Hopefully they change it.
Im as blind as you are, but wtf, i havent gotten any star-rarity card in over 100 pulls except the free first one, and you already got two more. If thsts not streamer luck, i dont know what is.
I got the gold mewtwo and 3 secret rare ex card in my first 15 packs🥲
Almost like they want you to try again...
I'm very excited to see this series - Regis being a relative noob to Pokemon was unexpected, and I'm here for it!!
not knowing a grass type is weak to fire is the highlight of my life XD great vid brother keep it up. 35:35

Saw your community post and was super hyped I stopped playing snap a while ago and im excited to see your gameplays!
This is such a cool and exciting concept! Really excited to see what comes of this game and your take on it
Watched a bunch of your marvel snap videos, but I’m a HUGE pokemon fan, so I’m looking forward to watching you learn

I'd love to see you doing blind play throughs of the pokemon games. Keep up the amazing content.
I’m actually traveling in NZ right now! Made it easy to get the game downloaded 😂
Oh wow! A new channel! I’m looking forward to this. Knowing your stuff from Snap, I am on board with this channel too.
It’s essentially Pokémon trading card game on mobile. I stopped playing PTCG when I started playing snap a loooot more. Both are super fun games though! When you get crazy cards it gets super fun
Glad to see you immediately realized that Ekans is just "snake" backwards ... took me a cool ten years to make that same connection lmao
This RegisPokebin guy might just be the best at RNG. He should play Marvel Snap, maybe he could be a genius at that game.
Thank you for the "visiting New Zealand" comment, I understand now.
4:34 oh my! Im excited to see the launch and revive the first great generations of pokemon 😍 .. hope they make a good job with the game
Pocket Monster Pocket. Gotcha
Pocket² monsters
When Regis said Moltres was a big fancy chicken I lost it.
I’m pretty excited to play “Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket”.
I'm really stoked to play this! Just sucks that they basically released an early access version a month before the actual release for players that go through the hustle of "cheating" the system outside of NZ. And for native New Zealanders of course.
Good luck with the new channel Regis.
damn 20 hours after first video and already doouble my subscribers XD you deserve it all, you are one of my fav content creators. great to see someone get newly into pokemon i was laughing at the pronoouciations cant wat untill you read more of them
looking forward to seeing the battling system grow
This was so fun to watch you play i loved it
look at the good ol algorithm getting me hip to your new channel
I probably won't play the game but I know I'll enjoy watching you play it. 🎉
Informative and informative Regis back at it again!
Love your Marvel Snap content, so excited for all the Pokémon!!!
That was some crazy wonder picks lmao for your first time
I know you from Marvel Snap but the youtube algo definitely helped when this video popped up on my feed lol
I completely planned on making another account, opening all the free packs, trading those over to my main, then deleting the account data & repeating the process. Only thing I am unsure of is if they are going to implement some kind of trade restrictions or like in pokemon go trade resources.
Now we will see a thumbnail with pikachu and flareon in a strange fusion
Hey regis, i would like to ask, what are the qualities that you look for in trying new tcgs?
Love the video as always!
I am actually pumped about this. I love Pokémon cards.
Love the latin Flair that you gave Ponyta's name 💃
No es un pony grande, sólo una pequeña ponyta 😂
Honestly glad you aren’t super knowledgeable on Pokémon because watching you react to them is so awesome lmao
Honestly shocked that Regis isn’t a huge Pokemon nerd
I didnt finish the vid yet so i don't know if you did this already, but add your Arcanine ex into the Rapidash deck! it came with Growlithe, Arcanine's basic.
If it goes well this could help Marvel Snap bring packs in to the game
Loving your reactions! "Is that how pokemon are named?"
Kinda excited about this game! Love me some Pokémon GB games and know the first 151 lol
Got pretty lucky with drawing articuno ex full Art as my best Draw. Then I got the regular articuno ex in Wonder Pick. Imagine the dopamine rush 😄
Ah yes, 'Pocket Monsters Pocket' my favourite game.
Also they should split the play mat in between the line on the poke ball one side is ur play mat and the other side is theirs
The first thing I saw about the early release in New Zealand is that people have already come up with super sweaty tryhard exploit decks that will be horrible if it isn't fixed before global launch, so I'm a tad worried
Regis up in the A.M yelling "Jigglypuff gonna pound us" lol
Until this moment I never noticed ekans was just snake backwards! 🤦♂️
Well, let me tell you about Arbok. And when you're ready, about Muk 😈.
@@chron0dude lol, wow. I'll be combing through Pokemon to find these now
Took me years to figure that out lol 😅
Its interesting that it uses card art from the original set of the pokemon tcg. I wonder if every pokemon art is on there from every set
Fun fact for newbies, the bottom right of non EX cards have flavour text
wow regis but pokemon D: i found this channel surprisingly fast on recommendation page
Are there status effects in this game? To me they have been the most interesting part of Pokemon TCG (original). I have not seen any so far, but maybe they just don't want to overwhelm you in the tutorial..
Im glad i saw the gameplay. It is just a simpler version than the tcg.

The content I was waiting for!
Please keep dropping these bangers for tcg🔥🔥🔥🤝🏾

Are these all exclusive arts that are only in Pokemon Pocket? Don't think I've seen them before
Some of them are new to this game, some are from vintage cards.

Ahh yess finally a good card game that has no clog, Loki and arishem. Love to see it😂😂😂
35 years old and I’m just now realizing Evans is snake backwards. God I’m slow 🤣
So... The whole name would be Pocket Monster Trading Card Game Pocket... They need to work on their naming skills.
