If this game doesn't have microtransactions, I'll straight up eat my hat.

Edit: Maybe i spoke too soon. I'm not very familiar with the online TCG or the physical->digital card system in place, but you could very well be right that they would stick with that system.

That said, there's too much to be gained from microtransactions, and they know that all too well with Pokémon Go. I stand by my statement regarding the headwear and the mastication thereof.

It’s normal to be skeptical no worries ;). Pokémon TCG is really a thing of its own, and managed by a separate entity within the Pokemon Company.

I could be wrong, but if it was the case, I am wondering why they did not already do it with their new TCG app that was released last year.
