Stop hiding major features

One of the most peculiar aspects of Pokémon TCG Pocket is the game’s hiding of significant features. Despite playing for three weeks, we only just discovered the game has a wishlist option!

Most significant of these anomalies is the Pack Point Exchange. This is one of the game’s 840,391 in-game currencies, gained whenever you open a pack, and used to “buy” cards outright to add to your collection. The game at least introduces this concept to you, but later, when you want to find it again, it’s bizarrely concealed.

To use the points, you have to do something entirely counter-intuitive: Go as if to open a pack. This is genuinely the only place in the game where you can access the feature, and it’s completely unlabeled too. Once you’ve tapped to open a new pack, next to the three pack arts you can choose from, in a tiny circle at the bottom-right of the screen, there’s a picture of…well, it’s a picture of a zippo lighter. Tap that, and then you can buy cards. It’s ridiculous!

And talking of the Pack Point Exchange…
