The pack points system and which cards to choose
After going through the tutorial and gaining at least one level of experience, you will be introduced into the Pack Points system. This is where you can exchange points to get expansion store cards. It’s quite similar to real life when you exchange unnecessary letters for cards from other players or a game store. In this case, you are not giving up your cards, but you are gaining Pack Points to spend.
Notably, you can only earn Pack Points for the expansion you are opening. For example, at the moment the boosters you can open are from the Generation Apex expansion. This means you can only earn Pack Points for that expansion and can only spend those points on other cards from that expansion. However, this will help you unlock the complete Kanto Pokédex of the Apex Generation Collection.
You can only have a total of 2,500 package points stored before you stop earning them. Make sure to spend your points before opening new packs if you are maxed out.
You earn package points simply opening your boosters. Every time you open a booster pack, you will also earn a certain amount of Pack Points. You are going always earn 5 Pack Points per pack you open, which means you will need to open 7 packs to earn the lowest rarity card possible. To see exactly how much you have to spend per rarity, see the table below.
