Pokemon TCG Pocket is out and the obsessive collecting has begun with one of the top prizes being the immersive Mew; here’s how to get it.
Despite Pokemon TCG Pocket only being out for a few days, some Pokemon fans have already discovered an immersive card that wasn’t announced when the game came out. This special card is not easy to get, but it gives a detailed look at one of the most popular and iconic of all Pokemon. Here is how to get the immersive Mew card in Pokemon TCG Pocket.
How to get the immersive Mew card
Trainers can unlock the immersive Mew card by collecting the cards of the first 150 Pokemon from the Kanto region.
These Pokemon cards are found in the Genetic Apex set, meaning anyone who wants the immersive Mew card needs to open a lot of pack3s. Luckily, it can be any version of each Pokemon, whether it’s a common pull or an illustration rare.
There is no set time limit for completing this collection and earning the immersive Mew card. So don’t worry about obsessively opening packs all weekend or anything.
Trainers can open two free booster packs every day, but app users are already wondering how to open more packs without spending their entire paycheck. Here are some ways to open additional packs in Pocket:
- New users will get a two-week free trial of the Premium Pass, which means one free pack every 12 hours for 14 days
- Keep the Premium Pass after those two weeks for $9.99 per month
- Complete missions to earn Pack Hourglasses, which will shorten the time trainers can get new packs
- Check Daily Rewards to see if they are anything that will help get packs faster
- Spend Poke Gold to speed up pack timers — it’s $9.99 for 72 Poke Gold to $99.99 for 690 (or $0.99 for 12)
What are immersive cards in Pokemon TCG Pocket?
Immersive cards are special cards found in Pokemon TCG Pocket that allow trainers to feel as though they’ve jumped into the art. Tapping and holding the card starts an animated scene in the style of the card’s artwork with music in the background.
Immersive cards are some of the rarest in the game and are very tough to pull. Most collectors are getting them by completing hidden challenges. The currently known immersive cards in Pocket are:
- Charizard ex (found in Genetic Apex Charizard packs)
- Mew (found in Genetic Apex packs)
- Mewtwo (found in Genetic Apex Mewtwo packs)
- Pikachu (found in Genetic Apex Pikachu packs)
More immersive cards will likely be coming in the future along with new sets.
