J.C. Smith, the Consumer Marketing Group for Pokemon, is along for the ride detailing the transition, the company’s expectation for the new platform, crossover possibilities and more. A surprising nugget for me was to learn that each physical booster unlocks a digital booster by way of an included code.
Another excuse for my wallet to hide.

The Pokémon Trading Card Game Online is everything you'd ever want a digital trading card game to be.
I'm getting tired of all these opinion pieces titled "You Should Do This", "You Shouldn't Do That".
I'll do whatever the f*** I want, thank you very much. :)
How about reporting on some actual news?
How about no?
Its free to play on lower ranks but you need to pay for the good cards and top meta decks.
Also meta shifts every season so even if you grind 1000 hours to get the best cards, it will be outdated next season.
It is a brave new world for the Pokemon series. Thanks to the prevalence of mobile devices and lowering of walls, all sorts of spin-offs are showing up in new spaces. Android and iOS devices are getting their own kinds of games involving our favorite pocket monsters. None of them are traditional Pokemon titles, but that doesn't mean they don't have value or should be ignored. In fact, people probably should be trying out and experiencing some of the ones immediately available now. (Especially while waiting for the DeNA Pokemon Masters game and the sleep-tracking Pokemon Sleep application.) But, which ones should people consider playing?
