Pokemon TCG Pocket smashes major milestone days after release

As a gamer with over two decades of Pokemon experience under my belt, I’ve seen the evolution of this beloved franchise from Gameboy to smartphones. The release of Pokemon TCG Pocket has truly taken me by storm! Just a week into its global release and it has already amassed an impressive 30 million downloads, earning $12 million in revenue in the process.


In just a week since its launch, the Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG) Pocket has achieved a monumental feat, hinting that it might soon compete with the popularity of Pokemon Go.

With an abundance of distinct Rare and Promo cards, powerful meta decks for various strategies, and multiple engaging events, the Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket has undeniably become a massive hit. To put it into perspective, it generated a staggering $12 million in revenue just four days after its worldwide launch, equating to approximately $3 million daily – far surpassing the average daily revenue of $1 million from Pokemon Go.

Currently, according to TCG Pocket X’s update, the game’s popularity is soaring high, with more than 30 million downloads globally within a single week.

Wow, thirty million packs opened?! I’m curious to know how many games have been played so far. 🤩

As a devoted fan, let me share an interesting observation: While it took Pokemon Go three whole months to achieve half a billion downloads, TCG Pocket managed to reach 6% of that impressive figure in just one week! Now, although TCG Pocket may not be the most popular mobile Pokemon game out there, it’s definitely exceeding expectations and leaving quite an impression.

Of course, enthusiasts couldn’t help but envision a method within the game to honor this achievement, suggesting ideas like “perhaps offering free prizes” or humorously stating that the creators “ought to provide some fitting celebratory rewards! Maybe even premium packs for everyone!

Many people have commended the game, highlighting several factors contributing to its significant increase in fame: “It’s been an absolute blast to play, and I must say it’s truly one of the best apps to showcase a game” expressed one player, with another echoing, “We can’t get enough of this fantastic game.

The constantly updating Pokemon TCG Pocket continues to thrive, refusing to lose momentum, despite some players believing the current Lapras ex Drop Event is “biased.
