Collect Pokémon TCG Cards in Multiple Languages for Fun
Are you looking to add some flair to your Pokémon TCG Pocket collection? Imagine owning a Japanese Pikachu or a French Mr. Mime. It’s easier than you might think! Pokémon TCG Pocket started with a decent variety of cards, but it can get repetitive when the same ones keep appearing. Whether you’re hunting for that rare Charizard with gold background art or the best Genetic Apex cards, pulling the same Rattata over and over can be a bummer. Luckily, you can spice things up by collecting cards in different languages. It’s a great way to diversify your deck, especially if you’re bilingual.
Why Collect Cards in Different Languages?
You might have seen these unique cards in community showcases or on the title screen. The exciting part? You can own them too and even use them in battles. During gameplay, they’ll translate to match your deck, making it a seamless experience. Let’s dive into how you can get Pokémon TCG Pocket cards in various languages.
Methods to Obtain Multilingual Cards
There are two main ways to get these cards: trading with other players or opening packs in different languages. Both methods depend on the game’s language setting, ensuring that cards from a pack match the language you’ve chosen. It might sound complex, but it’s simpler than it seems.
- Trading with Players: Currently, the only way to trade cards in different languages is through Wonder Pick. You’ll need a bit of luck to find a player with a different language or add someone as a friend.
- Opening Packs: This method doesn’t rely on luck or random friendships. Change your app’s language before opening any packs, and the cards will match that language. This works for promo packs too. For example, during the Venusaur event, I switched to Spanish and received Spanish cards.
Using Pack Point Exchange
Crafting cards with Pack Point Exchange also follows your language setting. Want a Japanese Charizard ex card? Change the game’s language and use the Pack Point Exchange system. The menus are intuitive, so navigating them in a different language shouldn’t be too challenging.
How to Change Your Language Settings
Changing your game’s language is straightforward. Here’s how:
- Tap the Hamburger menu button (three horizontal lines) on the bottom right of any main menu screen.
- In the slide-out menu, tap on Other, next to a Cog icon.
- Select Settings at the top, also next to a Cog icon.
- Scroll to System Settings and tap Language Selection, located under the Haptic Feedback/Vibration toggle.
- Choose your desired language, and the game will restart with your selection.
Now, you can navigate the game in a different language. Cards from packs will match this language and stay that way, even if you switch back.
Nostalgic Fun with Multilingual Cards
Getting Pokémon TCG Pocket cards in different languages is a delightful addition that mirrors the joy of finding a non-English card in real life. It brings back memories of friends sharing trading cards from places like Mexico or China. These nostalgic feelings will only grow stronger once trading becomes available next year.
