Pokmon TCG Pocket is set to be the franchise’s next big hit for the iconic card game, so it is crucial to understand how packs and card collecting work. The mobile game is set to release worldwide on October 30, with an early test release currently going on in New Zealand. Like other mobile games, Pocket will have monetization options. The first option is the premium in-game currency Pok Gold, which can be used for cosmetic purchases and speed up pack openings. There is also a premium pass that awards bonus missions, coins, and alternate art promo cards.
