Wild Pokemon TCG Pocket Theory Thinks You Can Game The System
Pokemon Trading Card Pocket has barely been out a week, but players are already looking for anything to give them the edge they need to find the mobile game's rarest cards, no matter how unlikely. The latest Pokemon TCG Pocket rumblings are from a very-likely made up conspiracy theory, and that still hasn't deterred players from trying to use it to get results.
Part of the game mimics the experience of opening a booster pack of trading cards by giving players the chance to choose which one they want to open as part of their daily allotment. The theory holds that there's a greater chance of getting the hard-to-find cards by looking for the trading card packages with wrinkles, bent corners, or any imperfections when examining them prior to opening. Kotaku notes that the theory seems to have originated with Japanese X user Jedis_tm, and taken off from there.

The game's subreddit is filled with players who at the very least tried to put the theory into action. Some players say that it didn't improve their odds, while others claim otherwise. Regardless, the practice of closely checking each pack for imperfections seems to have caught on, even though there's no proof that any of the rare-item odds changed because of the in-game package.
