SomePokémon Trading Card Game Pocketplayers appear to be hogging all the luck to themselves, as players share screenshots of incredibly lucky coin flips. The game has added a few new cards and simplified existing ones. Among the new cards is the Misty supporter trainer card, which is meant to help players add Water energies onto their Pokémon, but only if they’re lucky.

A Reddit post by405freewayshows that luck-based cards aren’t anything new to theTCGgame by comparing the new Misty card to the 2000 card, Blaine’s Ninetales. This card had players flip a coin after attacking, and remove all Fire energy cards attached to it if the coin landed on tails. The ongoing joke since the release of the game has been thatplayers are very rarely lucky when playing the Misty card.

Pokémon TCG Pocket Misty Card Has Become A Meme

It Requires A Lot Of Luck To Be Useful

The Misty supporter card inPokémon TCG Pocketis very useful, in theory. The card has players choose aWater-type Pokémon, then flip a coin until it turns up tails. For each time the coin lands on heads, a Water Energy is attached to the card. If the player gets lucky, this supporter is agreat way to add enough Energy cards to a strong Pokémonfor a potentially devastating attack.

In reality, the card seems incredibly unlucky and many players complain that thecoin never lands on heads. As a result, the card has been the subject of many memes that change the text to a variation of “Flip a coin. It’s tails. It’s always tails.” However, it seems that players aren’t always as unlucky as anecdotal evidence suggests.

Misty Isn’t The Only Pokémon TCG Pocket Card That Requires Luck

Unlucky Coin Tosses Seem Prevalent In The Game

Getting heads on Misty’s coin flips can be a frustrating experience, but when it goes right, it’s so satisfying. Unfortunately, it seems thatsome players have more luck than others. “So you’re the person taking all the probability,” exclaimsaceofdiamonds42in response to one of the many lucky coin flippers.

Misty isn’t the only card in the game that requires luck with coin tosses, making it difficult to land a hit for those of us who are unlucky. Marowak ex, Pinsir, Skiddo, and several other cards are completely reliant on flipping a coin for their attacks. Failing on Misty is annoying but not terrible, but failing at any of the other cards that need a coin toss to do any damage at all can make or break a battle. At least it’s good to know that some players out there are having some luck withPokémon Trading Card Game Pocketcoin tosses.
