One crazy thing I found—Pokemon TCG Pocket, right? It’s like one of those freebie games that just hooks you. You get these booster packs every day, which is great, unless you’re like me and get sidetracked counting how many different cards there are. So, yeah, it’s “free,” but also a gacha game, so brace yourself for some serious commitment. Seriously, trying to collect them all is like herding cats. Why did I even start this again? Oh, right, the rare cards. Let’s dive in.
Okay, here’s my take: figuring out the rarest cards is like trying to find a needle in a stack of other needles. Two ways to spot the rare gems: their rarity in booster packs and which ones you can actually get your hands on easily. Spoiler: It’s never as easy as it sounds. And with new sets dropping soon, the landscape is gonna change again. End of July, I think. But don’t quote me on that—or do, who knows!
Those Gold Crown rares, they’re the elite squad of cards. The holy grail, if you will. Actually, they’re like finding a four-leaf clover on the moon. But apparently, the Eevee Grove set is where to find the real prize cards. So, if you see a Charizard Ex or Pikachu Ex. Nope, not kidding, those odds are like 0.013%, which is kinda nuts.
Weird thing, though, is whenever you get one of those God Packs, like the super-rare ones, each slot could be a Gold Crown rare. Imagine, you’re opening a pack, and bam, Charizard Ex is staring back at you. If Charizard was your chosen booster, that is. Those percentages practically need their own PhD just to decipher.
There’s debate in the community—obviously, where else?—about which card truly holds the crown for rarest. Some say the Gold Crown stuff since it’s been around, but others reckon Eevee Bag might be the rare one since it’s all shiny and new. Pokémon fans love a bit of controversy, right?
But wait, there’s more! Curveball time—the rarest card could be… Lapras Ex! It’s not in the Genetic Apex, making it some kind of mythical beast among cards—like the friend that always gets the best concert tickets. Only the old-timers have it from the first game drop, which makes it even more of a unicorn.
So, yeah, is there really a “rarest” card? Or is it just a wild goose chase keeping us up clicking booster packs like there’s no tomorrow? I guess that’s part of the fun. Or madness. Hard to tell sometimes. Anyway, until the next card drop or my coffee runs out—whichever comes first—I’ll be hunting those elusive rares.
