Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket feels like it's only just left the door, but the support has been coming thick and fast over the last week. Today, a brand new event has got underway and it promises some shiny Emblems for your player profile if you can prove your skills in battle.
The 'Genetic Apex Emblem Event 1' kicked off today and runs until 28th November. In this one, you'll take part in a series of Versus Battles to prove you're the very best (like no one ever was). There's an Emblem up for grabs for all those who participate, which can be pinned to your profile to showcase your triumphs.
Naturally, the more battles you win, the better Emblem you stand a chance of getting. You'll find the full list of event Emblems and win requirements below:
Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket - Genetic Apex Emblem Event 1 Rewards
1 win: Genetic Apex Emblem Event 1 Participation Emblem
5 wins: Genetic Apex Emblem Event 1 Bronze Emblem
25 wins: Genetic Apex Emblem Event 1 Silver Emblem
45 wins: Genetic Apex Emblem Event 1 Gold Emblem

You can enter the Genetic Apex Emblem Event 1 by heading to the 'Battle' section of the TCG Pocket app, selecting 'Versus' and then tapping 'Event Match'.

I’m good. Dudes doing too much sweating in those vs battles
Don't think I'll take part in this event, but on the other hand today I've finally started the Lapras one in hope of getting those sweet, sweet promos!
Been playing off and on and while I’m enjoying it a fair bit, there’s not really that much to do in the game.. open packets.. battle with cards.. maybe I’m just too simple to have real fun with it 🤷♂️
Already 3-0 since I started this morning. Battle me! Jk. Single prize decks are the bomb in this while you take all their double prize cards out. I already liked the tcg and this just gives me more so I’m happy
I'm liking the daily rollout of new content. Helps keep things interesting. I'm also kind of glad this is just based off total wins rather than a proper ranking, because I can barely break even with my half-baked free to play decks.
I check in every day for new cards, but honestly in a week I've probably had less than a half dozen actual battles (even including the solo stuff) There's just not enough strategy in the game, doubly so now they've halved the points you need to win and limited the energy options.
I'm glad the emblems are kinda ugly, since I won't have to throw myself at 45+ battles.
Who on earth would pick one of those over slowpoke, a felt electrode, or any of the other emblems I've seen?
I'm rocking a Fire deck with Moltres ex, Arcanine ex, and Centiskorch and it's fairing well for me so far.
I'm good with collecting the cards, but I have not played versus battles since I was a kid, and it was with my older brother and I sucked at it. I don't need to relive that experience...
@Zaruboggan Those are player icons. These are little pins that show up under that, like the Pikachu/Charizard/Mewtwo ones. Since you can apply three at a time, I'll probably keep one of these there for a while.
@Anachronism Ooh, thanks for clarifying.
@WolfyTn Well, it is a simpler version of an otherwise more complicated game
@WolfyTn I agree, its not that fun tbh. Also as a free to play player, it will take roughly 2 years to collect all the cards from this one set lol
