Pokemon TCG Pocket brings the classic card game into a more modern setting, allowing you to collect digitally rather than stacks and stacks of cardboard mounting on your desk.
What hasn’t changed though is the crazy amount of chase cards that you can try your luck for.
One special type of pack will aid you in your efforts toward collecting those special cards – the Rare Pack.
Here, we’ll explain what this is so you know what to look out for when ripping your boosters.
What is a Rare Pack in Pokemon TCG Pocket?
A Rare Pack in Pokemon TCG Pocket is essentially a type of ‘god pack’ that many may be accustomed to if they are avid collectors of physical cards.
This is a pack that has all hard to obtain cards in it, usually featuring holo rares, ex cards, Gold Stars, and even Immersive Arts.
There are no common or uncommon cards in the pack, and since Pokemon TCGP utilizes the Japanese five card pack system, you’ll have five amazing pickups to add to your collection.
While all of this sounds fantastic, your chances of getting one of these elusive Rare Packs is very low.
In fact, if you head into the Offering Rates for Genetic Apex Packs, you’ll see that there is a 0.050% chance of being gifted one.
However, this shouldn’t deter you from chasing it as your Rare Pack could be just around the corner, you just never know what is in store.
Moreover since you can play the game completely free of charge, if you just want to open two packs a day, you could secure one without paying a penny!
