In-Game Economy of Pokémon TCG Pocket
Pokémon TCG Pocket comes with a rich in-game economy and a whooping number of currencies to trade against other resources. This page lists the resources available, the way to obtain them and what they can get you.
Packs & related currencies
You get one free pack every 12 hours in Pokémon TCG Pocket. You can’t directly purchase packs: instead you can reduce the cooldown at which you open packs, which is called Pack Stamina. You cannot accumulate more than 2 packs, so you have to come back at least once every 24 hours to not miss out.
