Summary

Pokemon GOplayers can get some special bonuses in-game to celebrate the release of thePokemon Trading Card GameCharizard ex Super-Premium Collection, but there’s a catch.Pokemon GOfans will need to go to a specific store in order to get their in-game prize.

SincePokemon GOis a game revolving around a player’s activity and location, it makes a lot of sense to pair up with physical locales to host giveaways and special promos. This giveaway also bears a resemblance to some of those that were held for themainlinePokemongamesback when they were available on mobile systems like the Nintendo 3DS.

Of course, the hope is that whilePokemon GOplayers are visiting stores, they’ll check out theTCGrelease. This particular set is great for Charizard fans, as the main highlight is a Charizard figure with translucent fire effects that can hold aPokemoncard for players to show their favorite off. The set also includes a collection of cards, including a guaranteed foil promo card of Charizard ex, 2 foil cards of Charmander and Charmeleon, 10Pokemon Trading Card Gamebooster packs, and a code forPokemon TCG Livemobile game. The set is expected to cost $79.99 and will arrive in early October, so interested fans may want to visit their local stores in early in the promo period.

While some fans haven’t been thrilled withPokemon GOgradually reducing or phasing out the number of activities one can engage in remotely, it seems Niantic will keep moving in that direction for the foreseeable future. While it might be disappointing for those who can’t get to one of these stores, the Charmander-line stickers won’t have any serious impact on gameplay, so there aren’t any battle or catching advantages being lost here.Stickers can be attached to gifts inPokemon GO, but provide no benefits to the gifter or giftee beyond a special aesthetic touch.
