Confused why you’re getting so many duplicate cards even though you’ve only just started playing Pokemon TCG Pocket?

Well that could be because, like me, you failed to notice the subtle differences between Genetic Apex packs - and I’m not just talking about whether they’ve got Charizard, Mewtwo or Pikachu on the front.

In the real-life Pokemon TCG, the different card pack designs from a booster set are all filled from the same card list. It’s not clear from the shop-front screen, but in Pokemon TCG Pocket while all of the packs are pulling from the same Genetic Apex set, they’re pulling from different card pools within that set. That’s right, the three different pack designs all have different cards inside!

This means that whether you’re picking Pikachu, Charizard or Mewtwo, you have a chance at pulling completely different commons, rares and even EX cards!

You will always get three commons in a pack as the first three cards, then the 4th and 5th cards have different weightings to be from the rest of the card rarities - which we’ll also list below.

Here are the full card lists for each of the different packs, so you can make a more informed choice for your collection and deck-building!
