It’s only been two days since Pokemon TCG Pocket came out and already, it’s surpassed over ten million downloads worldwide. It reached this milestone in around 48 hours.
Pokemon TCG Pocket is what it basically says on the tin. It’s an app version of the Pokemon TCG, where you can have a virtual deck and play against your friends or strangers. There are also simpler rules than in the original game, making it more accessible for those who felt like the card game was a bit too complicated to pick up.
Here is the gameplay trailer that the official Pokemon YouTube channel released earlier this year:
There are multiple starter decks and boosters that you can get in the game, though there, of course, microtransactions as well. It’s worth noting that although there are over ten million downloads, that doesn’t necessarily mean that ten million people downloaded and play the game. Like with any gacha game, some people are in the camp of rerolling accounts until they get something good or what they want. Since the method to reroll requires reinstalling the game and making a new account, that could account for a percentage of the overall downloads.
Pokemon TCG Pocket is available on mobile devices.
