Pokemon TCG Pocket Ideas
First, i want to start by saying i love the game and put a trillon hours into it every day. It's one of the only mobile games i play. I want to share a few ideas i think would truly enhance player experience.
- Private Matches
• I feel private matches could use a little extra sauce. Right now it is extremely basic when i feel this is the main feature that could go a long way for the game.
Things like adding the ability to adjust win requirements, banning cards (no exs, etc.), banning supporters, adjusting deck sizes from 20 to whatever numbers u want, putting together tournaments in game. the list goes on. The amount of content or self player enjoyment you would gain from enhancing this alone would be very beneficial for everyone.
2. Extra Game Mode / Weekly Mode
• Right now once you run through all the solo battles each new set and spend all ur hourglasses on opening packs (if ur not saving), only real thing left to do is grind ranked. While that is fun n all it can get really boring. Especially when you know exactly what decks you'll be up against every time and what you yourself need to use to get to Masters.
I say all that to say thats completely fine, ranked in most games u play boil down to, if ur not using the best stuff ur win percentage will be low.
I feel like there should be an alternative / more casual option to Ranked thats just "unranked random battles" which essentially u play the same type of people in that mode as well.
My idea is we make use of the missions we currently already have in solo battles ie. "fire cards only" "no exs" "no trainer cards" etc. and turn that into a fun casual side mode for people who truly just wanna build a fun deck to battle against people with or hell a campaign mode with some interesting different ways you have to play or switch up the way you play.
Let me know how you guys feel about these, again i really love spending money on the game and playing for hours i really think things like this would keep me and many others logging in.
Please upvote or whatever its called on here so maybe a dev or someone sees this and thinks something i say here was a decent idea. 🫶🏽💛
Also feel free to lets me know if i cooked or didn't and if yall have any interesting ideas as well
