Much likethe packs they choose to open, the card that players select during a Wonder Pick makes no difference whatsoever. This is because a card is automatically assigned toPokemon TCG Pocketplayers the moment they hit the OK button, thus making their card choice completely irrelevant.

However, that’s not to say that there aren’t still things that players can do to maximize their chances of a successful Wonder Pick. The bestPokemon TCG PocketWonder Pick strategy focuses not on which card to pick, but rather on which group of cards players should be picking from.

The Best Wonder Pick Strategy in Pokemon TCG Pocket

Rather than picking a pack that only has one of the cards that are missing from their collection,players should wait until they get a pack with two different cards that they need. By making sure thatboth cards have the same Wonder Stamina cost, they can not only increase their chances of getting something useful but also ensure that they’re using their Wonder Stamina as efficiently as possible. Put simply, players are doubling their chances of success.

When it comes to which rarities to target, players shouldfocus on holos (◇◇◇), ex cards (◇◇◇◇), and full arts (★), as they’ll almost certainly pick up all of the common and non-holo rares that they need over time anyway. It may be tempting to prioritize ex cards over holos, butthe chances of packing a specific holoaren’t all that much higher than getting a specific ex card, and as holos only require two Wonder Stamina rather than three, they arguably offer a much better rate of return.

Over time, the number of cards that players still need to complete the set will start to dwindle, making it much harder to find Wonder Pick packs with two cards that they’re missing. When this happens, players shouldswitch to looking for packs that have one card that they need and then a dupe with the same Wonder Stamina cost. Even if they end up picking the dupe, they’ll be able to trade it somewhere further down the line orexchange it for Trade Tokens.

Whether or not it’s worth chasing two star cards will vary from player to player. Those hoping to fully complete the set should go for them, although without spending real-world money, the chances of doing so are incredibly slim. As such, players may want to think twice before spending four Wonder Stamina when there’s an 80% chance of failure. The only time when pulling for two star cards is 100% worth it is ifa God pack shows up, although these are incredibly rare.
