Pikachu, I choose you...again! In Pokémon TCG Pocket, tear open virtual booster packs to build up your trove of Pokémon cards (from Articuno to Zapdos), display them in sweet digital binders, and add them to decks you’ll use in classic Pokémon battles. It’ll take a while to catch ’em all, but getting there is half the fun!

What we love: The thrill of scoring a super-rare find. Ripping open a booster and snagging a jaw-dropping card—like the supremely powerful Ex version of Mewtwo—feels as awesome as finding a real-world holo Charizard.

Quick tip: Complete the optional advanced guides to earn handy bonus items like the red card (playing it in battle forces your opponent to shuffle their hand into their draw pile) and a healing-potion card.

Meet the creator: Along with Nintendo and Game Freak, Tokyo-based gaming giant Creatures is part owner of The Pokémon Company; it also makes the physical Pokémon Trading Card Game. For Pokémon TCG Pocket, Creatures teamed up with Japanese developer DeNA, the studio behind Pokémon Masters EX.
