As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of card-collecting under my belt, I must admit that the discovery of Pokemon TCG Pocket‘s ‘Exodia’ has sent a nostalgic shiver down my spine. Much like the original Exodia from Yu-Gi-Oh, this new find brings back memories of countless hours spent hunting for those elusive cards to complete a set.


Pokemon TCG Pocket has an Exodia of sorts, it’s just not the game-winning combo of Yu-Gi-Oh.

The newest obsession linked to the iconic series, Pokémon TCG Pocket, has captivated more than 30 million gamers. While the unique assembly of its scarcest cards initially drew them in, it’s the compact form of Pokémon Trading Card Game combat that keeps them engaged.

Strong “meta” decks are starting to appear, and enthusiasts of the in-game card game are also identifying the least effective cards. The placement of this particular deck combination is somewhat controversial.

Reddit user karlatog found a version of the famous “Exodia” card in the Pokémon Trading Card Game called “Pokémon TCG Pocket.” However, this version doesn’t possess all the abilities of the original Exodia card.

If you’re not acquainted with the Yu-Gi-Oh Trading Card Game where Exodia, the Forbidden One originates, let me clarify that it is considered the strongest card within the game. In fact, Exodia isn’t a single card but five separate pieces: its two arms, two legs, and head. To summon Exodia, you must put these parts together in your gameplay.

Winning the game instantly by playing all five cards is a feat, and expert Yu-Gi-Oh players have mastered creating competitive decks that emphasize strategy. The crucial element in building a ‘Exodia’ deck for Pokemon TCG Pocket is obtaining the Snorlax full-art rare card.

This card features a connected set of illustrations where different parts of Snorlax appear in the artworks for Venonat, Oddish, and Bellsprout. Remarkably, each of these three Pokémon can be spotted within the full-art version of Snorlax as well.

Arranging these cards onto the battlefield forms an assemblage reminiscent of Exodus, according to Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) Pocket enthusiasts.

Indeed, it seems the resemblance lies more in the harmonious design of the pieces, as opposed to their immediate game-winning potential. While it might not be very beneficial in competitive play, boasting rights could certainly compensate for that.
