Comment of the game producer
We have developed “Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket,” aiming at letting a wide range of users, who do not actively play games, find the card illustration is attractive and that the game is fun.
It’s such an honor to find until now, so many users have played the game and that we win the Award of Experience at the Japan Game.
At the same time, we do hope this game is not a transient movement but keeps on giving an opportunity to introduce how interesting the Pokemon Card Game is.
This game celebrates its 1st anniversary at the end of October.
We once again review the joy of collecting and trading cards and make full efforts to make it even more fun for players to play the game alone, with friends, or family.
Please wait for new experiences in the 2nd-year“Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket.”
