Summary
Since its release,Pokemon Trading Card Game Pockethas undergone extensive analysis by its community. One player observed over 30,000 match results,determining the game’s most meta deck, and that same player used their findings to figure outthe ultimate Mewtwo ex deck. Research has also been completed to determine justhow busted Misty decks are during battles.
Now, another player,jteede, has been looking at how often players are likely to thank you during battles, finding that the averagePokemon TCGPocket player is a sore loser.
You’re More Likely To Get A Free Shop Ticket If You Lose
Sharing their findings onReddit, jteede analyzed 100 Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket battles with the goal of determining just how likely you are to receive thanks afterward and, thus, how likely you are to get a freeShop Ticket.
They found that only 54 percent of players thanked them after the matches they’d won. Conversely, of the matches they lost, 80 percent of players blessed jteede with a Shop Ticket.
Only 54 percent of players thanked them after the matches they’d won.
It presents quite a frustration for players. Given that Shop Tickets are one of only two rewards that can be received post-battle, to find that players may be purposefully holding them back in an act of spite after losing kind of sucks.
Now, it should be noted that 100 matches is a fairly small sample size, but the findings, when extrapolated, come as no surprise.
It’s also worth noting for players who weren’t aware, that if you had a particularly good battle with an opponent or are feeling generous,you can gift two shop tickets after a battle. If you ask me, this should be the norm going forward.
