@@dakotahilliker3873 Pull rates are way too low compared to other digital TCGs. Even leaving the collector cards aside, even just the EX Pokemon alone, which are essential game pieces, are much harder to pull than their 4th tier rarity equivalents in other Digital TCGs (Mythics for MTGA and UR of Master Duel). The game is way too greedy, and every single time I log in to pull nothing but 5 commons again, kills my motivation to keep playing. Hell, even compared to the physical Pokemon TCG, the pull rates feel much lower in Pocket. Which is ridiculous. Might as well spend my money on REAL packs.
You expect to get free stuff all the time? Please… bunch of greedy flutes, you wouldn’t even be happy if you got 10 packs but complain that it ain’t enough
I have a bad feeling they'll introduce trading after removing the ability to spend GA pack points. That way you won't be able to trade for basic cards you don't have first and spend remaining pack points on rare cards. Hope they don't do us dirty like that.
@@KarloBlazeI am pretty sure that you will have to trade same rarity cards, have 3 or more copies (same as flairing), and also will require some hourglass system and higher rarity cards will cost more. Also, I imagine that you won't be able to trade 2 gold star, immersive, and crown rares in general. It is also speculated that you will only be able to trade older sets, so if set 2 is out you would only be able to trade set 1 for example. Trading is something that could break the game and cause players to get too much stuff for little to no cost and buying cards off eBay could become a real thing. While at the same time they are not going to be too harsh with trading as it could cause players to quit. Whatever they go with, I just hope I can trade for the cards I'm missing to get full playsets of what I missed on.
@@belakarmecy7251 if trade feature break the game, change the game name. Don't use tcg because there is "trading" in there. So it must be pokemon ntcg (non-trading card game) pocket 😅
@@MichaelLawrence-xy6bcyou clearly didnt understand what he meant. The solo battles we have are a glorified tutorial, nothing to do with a story like mode where you battle ai for specific rewards. Making it would be sooooo easy for them: you do one "chapter" based on gyleaders of every gen and boom, here you have it.
They should fr add more content. A story mode would be nice. Like you battle gym leaders and they're all like buffed so it's actually a bit more challenging since the Ais are just bad. Buff them in terms of abilities, like what you can do in duel links. For example against lutenient surge, he'd always start with a Pikachu and Raichu in his starting hand.
rn yea i agree. i’m guessing it’ll get better as more sets come out and the meta diversifies cuz rn online u only see like 5 different decks played. the sets need to come out like every month too imo
I have over 1000 wins. It's not boring, it has a lot of cards. You have to stop following people's metas and experiment. Battle with friends, competing is never boring! You have a boring mentality.
not that long ago. probably when mythical island came out. like 3 days in a row the first time I'd log in I would have mail from the devs with 12 pack points. wish they'd do that more
i remember cuz at the time just for 1 day i didn’t hop on the game much cuz it was really busy and never claimed the pack hourglass. they actually suck for only giving you 24 hours to claim it when literally everything else they give you 30 entire days
I had a thought that they're holding back the Charizard illustration card for the Charizard event that's inevitably going to happen after this Blastoise one. Wouldn't that make sense?
I’ve opened 80 packs of MI and not gotten a single celebi. They really need to work on the dust system. The fact I’ve pumped probably $70 into game and still don’t have enough dust to make a single card is outrageously horrible.
You'd have to open 100 packs to be able to have enough points to get a celebi btw. Dust is only for flair currently. Pretty sure they'll use dust for trading like they did in go
This news start to be repetitive, the *incredible gift* is a promo of a useless card, and the crazy event are holos cards of a pokemon we already had, from a wonder pick
@@pugnessyeah you're right the stamina cost are too harsh... 3 stamina cost equal to 4 diamond or 1 star rarity... I can't see myself that promo cards are equal the value of that rarity... May be at least 2 stamina are enough...
At 4:00 you said they're the same as the one the Blastoise CPU uses, but mine doesn't use any specific accessories, weirdly enough. Is that a common thing ?
It's only a 3% chance to get the promo cards from free wonder picks (0.15 * 0.20). Last time I didn't get a promo bulbasaur and I was doing a free pick roughly every 2 hours the entire event. It's actually pretty *unlikely* to get the promo cards for free.
Why is there a different percentage for the chance of the pick event? Does it not matter which card you pick? Is it already predetermined for picks as well?
Yes bro they changed the rate it's difficult to get cards now usually it was always card next to the 1 u select but now it's literally all over the place
I'm only missing arcanine ex and nidoking to finish the 226 and aerodatyl ex for the other set for one of each of the non full art cards available! I need trading so bad!
I feel like pull rates are down for the new set. In GA I pulled around 20 2stars in around 350 packs. For MA, roughly 300 packs in, and I have only 2 2stars.
@@Monkeyfuzz Ngl, but the constant back to back packs of garbage commons I've already got a million copies of is extremely unmotivating toward keeping my interest in playing the game.
@@ivancito7790 Same. I have so many things like Bruxish that I have gotten full flair sets for multiple times just to get rid of. It's not even pack specific commons but the generic ones that really get me. It doesn't make me want to spend more, just hastens my desire to delete the game.
@@Monkeyfuzz Yep. Same. I'm just waiting to see how they handle trading. That will be the determining factor. If it's too greedy, I won't be sticking around for future sets.
I find it a little annoying that in general, you tend to get basic Pokemon in Chansey events and Tier 2 Pokemon in Drop events, but no Tier 1 Pokemon! I don't really know why, but Tier 1 Pokemon tend to be the hardest for me to obtain. For example, after opening hundreds o packs, I still have no Wartortle and only 1 Ivysaur.
Are we getting a Mew ex event? Bc i will stop ripping mythical islands in general. I have enough pack pts to fill out GA and mythical island, just need 1 more Mew
for a company that made more than 550 Mil in the first 2 months, those " freebies" are extremely underwhelming
Its Nintendo, im surprised we got this much for how greedy that company is. Hell for a gatcha im shocked we get a free multi every 12 hours lol.

I’ve opened 80 packs of MI and not gotten a single celebi. They really need to work on the dust system. The fact I’ve pumped probably $70 into game and still don’t have enough dust to make a single card is outrageously horrible.
This is true! I got 5 celebis
first MI pack i pulled a full art celebi, haven’t gotten another since
Same. Given up tbf.
I don't know what's more wild the number of packs youve opened without getting one or the fact you put $70 into a collection of 68 cards
You'd have to open 100 packs to be able to have enough points to get a celebi btw. Dust is only for flair currently. Pretty sure they'll use dust for trading like they did in go
I got Porigon full art and Gyarados ex from wonderpick time to CELEBRATE.
I just got my first gold car. It was a crown Mew
Celebrate the New Year everyone! Make sure to hug someone, it’s nice and free to give!

I finished GA last night and I’m debating on pulling more for crown pika
Celebrate the celebrations!
How did u celebrate your new year?
Hope soon we find out about trade and also get another set of cards
I got used to the event stamps, but I'd personally still prefer them to be more subtle and not so much in the face.
The green and Blastoise stuff is great. If only we can get some stuff with the real blue
Also love both Charmander and Squirtle promos both touching
The Blastoise coin is really cool, but I think I’ll stick to the Meowth coin cause of Payday.
As a collector, I think the promo stamp makes it look better/more collectible. Celebrate
When is the new set coming ?
New full set ?
Let's go we gotta celebrate!!
Not me getting the notification of this being uploaded a whole day later….
CELEBRATE ! Trying to get my mew from the genetic apex set still..
Let's Celebrate 🥂🎉
Celebrating this great new year of pokemon cards
Are we getting a Mew ex event? Bc i will stop ripping mythical islands in general. I have enough pack pts to fill out GA and mythical island, just need 1 more Mew
Let’s celebrate an upcoming year of Pokémon tcg pocket
Keep em coming!! Free stuff! Let’s celebrate
Any news on trading?
Bro please make a video on which pack is going to get removed at the end of January
Let's celebrate 14,2k subs🎉
So what I see it Jan 30th is when we get trading and next set?
Honestly if they wanted to be stingy but still have some rewards to keep people playing is just give people 1 pack hour glass every win
Time to celebrate 🎉
CELEBRATE CELEBRATE CELEBRATE
It ain't no dry season for me. Also people keep your hopes up and stop sinking the ship!
i celebrate this game and your videos!
i had to double check i wasnt at 1.25 play speed like twice during this video xd
The Blastoise playmat and.coin look dope. Can't wait to use them. Celebrate
How is it no one knew the promo 8 card was an alternate Pokédex? I found that out weeks ago.
Celebrate is what I did last night pulling an illustration rare from an individual booster pack
Celebrate!
I'm quite happy with the first series of Pokémon cards.
A Charizard drop event is probably gonna be next. So celebrate
I'm not even able to collect enough event tickets to wipe the store. I've been leaving the sleeves behind unfortunately.
I mean the charmander and Squirtle do the same thing like I said it's just artwork compared to snivey which it's different because of energy wise
Celebrate you being my favorite TCG Pocket creator!
I hope the promo cards return again in another event. I didn't get promo 1 😢
Celebrationnn! 🎉🎉
not to sound ungrateful for a free card, but i would hope they wouldnt make us work for it, dont think many people really run the card anyways...😅
i will had fuck the premium pass it is quite shit
Appreciate you !
CELEBRATE!!!
The devs really want to Celebrate the new year by giving us some new freebies
CELEBRATE the new year!
Let's celebrate the new year by saving up for gen 3 packs 😋
Well cool, looks nice. But not a card I've ever used
I shall celebrate over this new Pokédex card. Even though I was really hoping for that promo Charizard
