Summary

Thanking players is one ofPokemon Trading Card Game Pocket’sbiggest early gripes. Following battles, players have the opportunity to thank their opponent, giving them aShop Ticketin the process. These tickets can then be spent on items likeWonder Hourglassesand Pack Hourglasses.

But, while thanking should be the norm, seeing as it’s only an additional press of the screen, it doesn’t seem to be happening as much as it should.

Some players have figured out a way tosend two shop tickets after a battle, doing their part for the cause, but another found thatplayers are less likely to thank you if they loseagainst you. It’s a complete lottery as to whether you’ll get zero, one, or two tickets after each match-up.

In an attempt to avoid a reliance on coming up against a friendly player, the Pokemon TCG Pocket community has created a dedicated lobby for giving out thanks.

Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket’s ‘Thanks’ Lobby

In Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket, you can get a total of five Shop Tickets a day from players thanking you. In theory, this should mean you only need to do five battles, but that so often isn’t the case, with players likely to thank you between 50 and 80 percent of the time.

To combat this issue, players have created the “Thanks” private lobby. As shared byYamaKasinonReddit, the aim is to simply join a battle, concede, and thank your opponent, gifting them a Shop Ticket in the process.

The specific lobbies can be found by selecting Versus Battle Private Match and typing in the password “THANKS”.

It’s another example of the Pokemon Trading Card Game Pocket community coming together to use private lobbies to shape the game.

With the meta dominated by a few cards likeMewtwo ex,Pikachu ex,Charizard ex, andStarmie ex, players have createda range of different private battle formatsto circumnavigate this.

By typing in the following codes, you’ll be able to join a variety of different battle types:
