These cards with distinctive 3D art style are highly sought-after and rightfully so within the game’s community.

In the game Pokemon TCG Pocket, when you pick a pack to open, a group of boosters appears for the player’s selection. On Twitter, on October 31st, user @Jedis_tm proposed a theory that packs with a noticeable bend in a row have a greater likelihood of containing a rare card. Prior to selecting a pack, players can rotate it by swiping their finger across it. Occasionally, a pack might seem slightly bent at the edges, and these may hold a much rarer card compared to others.
