Pokemon TCG Pocket may not have much built-in ranked mode, nor much competitive functionality beyond the standard PvP online battle mode, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t high-intensity matches. In fact, players are taking matters into their own hands.
The Pokemon TCG Pocket competitive scene is active on third-party websites, allowing players to organize tournaments outside of the game from the comfort of their homes. So far, all of these tournaments have been online, using sites like Play Limitless TCG as hubs for professional play.
