How to get flair in Pokemon TCG Pocket

Pokemon TCG Pocket is not one of those card games where getting a duplicate card holds much merit, but you can certainly add some flair to them to help them stand out (quite literally). Hence you may be wondering how to get flair on your cards in Pokemon TCG Pocket.

Getting multiple copies of a card in digital card games is often considered an essential part, but the new release from The Pokemon Company has a friendlier economy. That said, you’ll end up with duplicates of cards that you already have. Doing so will help you make your cards look unique and add a dash of coolness to them.

How to obtain flair in Pokemon TCG Pocket

For starters, go to the My𒅌 Cards section, which has a list of all your available cards.

• Select the “Obtain Flair” button.
• The next step will prompt you to the requirements of duplicate items and Shinedust (you get this resource by pulling duplicate copies of a card you already found in a previous pack).
• For lower Diamond rarity items, you’ll need to apply the first cosmetic flair option before you can opt for the battle options.
• Higher star rarity cards will have the battle flair unlocked by default once you have adequate resources in terms of Shinedust and duplicates.

The requirements also change based on the rarity of a card. Those having lower rarity will need more duplicates and less Shinedust. Rarer cards like Pikachu EX will need more Shinedust, but you’ll need only one duplicate. All cards at rarity 3 diamonds or above will need one extra copy to unlock their flair (along with Shinedust).

Once unlocked, you can equip the flair for the card from your deck section. Cards with flair will have a small icon on their screen – just press on it to apply the available flair option.

While adding flair to your cards in Pokemon TCG Pocket is really cool, it’s purely a cosmetic effect. There are no in-game advantages for cards with flair, so don’t stress too much about it. By opening packs regularly, you’ll eventually end up with enough duplicates and Shinedust to unlock flair for several of your favorite cards.
