Pokémon TCG Pocket is already getting its claws into players around the world, racking up over 10million downloads in its first week.
Even though it’s aimed at the more causal player, strategy is already creeping into the game with a number of players restarting their progress (or rerolling) to get the best possible start with their initial boosters.

Even though you can reroll, you only want to do so providing you haven’t invested too much time, bought the Premium Pass or spent money on Poké Gold, as this will all be lost if you do reroll.
That is why the best time to reroll is after opening your initial pack after the tutorial and Beginner Missions.
This can give you a chance to get better cards or more usable cards in decks. But you will have to go through the tutorial and Beginner Missions process again.
How to reroll in ‘Pokémon TCG Pocket’
You can reroll in Pokémon TCG Pocket by:
- Selecting the menu icon (three lines) on the main menu and choosing “Other”
- Click “Account”
- Choose to “Delete Save Data”
- Set-up a new account and log-in once again (either with a new email or your previous one)
- Choose the starter packs and progress through the tutorials and Beginner Missions
- If unhappy with your picks by level 3/4, repeat this process
As we said above, this is a one-time decision. Upon deleting your Save Data, you cannot get it back and your next run through the tutorial could potentially get you worse cards. So do think carefully before choosing this. However, if you haven’t spent any money or have only completed the introductory Beginner Missions, then you shouldn’t have put any significant time into the game. This makes opting to reroll a lot easier.
During your reroll, your initial cards will be the same as everyone else, depending on which pack you opened. However future boosters and the ones you earn through obtaining Pack Hourglass’ and speeding up your stamina recovery for Wonder Picks will be random. If you want to see what cards are in each pack, then be sure to look at the “Offering Rates” tab in the pack selection menu, as the Mewtwo, Pikachu, and Charizard packs all have different cards. So pick the one that you like the most.
