According to the store page, players will be awarded two booster packs daily at no cost, which will be added to their collections. While the cards will feature iconic illustrations we’ve come to love over the years, there are also new cards that are completely exclusive to the digital version.

In addition, there are also “immersive cards”, which have a 3D feel, similar to what we have seen in card games like Gwent. As expected, you’re able to take part in casual battles with your friends, trade cards, and even show off your collection using binders and display boards.

Pokémon TCG Pocket is coming to Android and iOS devices onOctober 30, 2024.

As far as we can see, there aren’t bonuses for pre-registering, but players will be notified if they can try out the title early, as is the case with other upcoming mobile releases. We don’t expect this to be released on other platforms like the Nintendo Switch, even though it’s a great idea for other handheld devices as well. Pokémon TCG Pocket will be available in 89 countries and supports over 14 different languages.
