Users of the brand new Pokémon application have found a trick allowing them to receive, without fail, the rarest cards, that's in any case what the viral videos on the networks show… Schoolyard rumors which have been denied.

It's too good to be true

It's an understatement to say that Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket (TCGP) is very popular. Released a week ago, it already has 10 million downloads. In comparison, Pokemon GO had been downloaded around 7 million times a week after its launch. Far from capturing pocket monsters, Pokémon TCG Pocket transposes the collection of Pokémon cards into a digital format. Every day, two packs each containing five cards are given to players, which allow you to build decks for card matches.

Like any game of the genre, some cards are stronger and rarer than others. Enough to provoke envy among many users of the application who immediately looked for a way to recover as much as possible. So it didn't take long for players to theorize about a potential secret technique to ensure you come across the rarest cards.

According to this rumor, when you find yourself in front of the carousel of packages, you just have to select the one with horny edges. This strategy would ensure you get at least one shiny rare card. What these videos don't show are all the failed attempts. In truth, the folded edges of the packs are no guarantee of running into the crowned Charizard Ex. Something that we were able to verify (to our great dismay) for ourselves. It seems rather that this is only an aesthetic detail thought by the developers of the application, especially since the technique has been demonstrated to be ineffective by the community:

Another confirmation that the pack you are getting is determined as soon as you click “Open Booster”. I force-closed the app before choosing a deck from the carousel and still got my cards after reopening the app. The bent corner theory is a LIE.

Be patient, or lucky!

YouTuber SneakyDragon wondered how many packs must you open to acquire the rarest cards. In his videohe explains the chance rates of obtaining them. His experience allowed him to discover that, surprisingly, two-star Pokémon seem rarer than three-star Pokémon. It also reveals that in the first three cards that you reveal, you will definitely come across at least one 1 diamond Pokémon, which are the most common.

If you are targeting a specific golden crown card, you will need to be patient, or pay. It is, according to the YouTuber, approximately 1,458 openings that will allow you to obtain the coveted crown Pokémon. Either way, whether it's the one you're looking for or another, in an average of 495 boosters there is at least one crown card. Some players are luckier than others: in the comment of SneakyDragon's video, a Pokémon hunter enthuses: “On my first day, I got a Crown Pikachu and a Mewtwo Ex Immersive. So excited, but I wanted the Charizard!” You can't have everything…
