In Pokemon TCG Pocket, there are many resources and currencies you will use while playing the game. One of the most important ones is Shinedust. It is needed for a lot of things in the game, like getting rare cards and trading. Every player will need Shinedust at some point.<\/p>\n
Since it is such a valuable resource, you have to be careful how you use it. If you are low on Shinedust or don\u2019t know how to make the most of it, this guide will help.<\/p>\n
Getting Shinedust in the game can be done in a few different ways.<\/p>\n
The most common way is by collecting duplicate cards. When you open card packs or get Wonder Picks, you often receive cards you already own. If you get a card you already have two copies of, you will earn some Shinedust. The amount is small at first, but it adds up over time.<\/p>\n
Here is how much Shinedust you get from duplicates based on card rarity:<\/p>\n
Common cards give 20 Shinedust
Uncommon cards give 40
Rare cards give 240
Double Rare cards give 720
Art Rare cards give 470
Super Art Rare and Special Art Rare give 2400
Immersive Rare gives 5400
Shiny Rare gives 1700
Super Shiny Rare gives 3600
Crown Rare gives 30,000<\/p>\n
You can also trade or share cards with friends to get duplicates, but this is not very efficient and not recommended.<\/p>\n
Another way to earn Shinedust is by completing achievements. Achievements can be for collecting cards, opening packs, adding flair, and more. Each achievement has a rank, and higher ranks give more Shinedust.<\/p>\n
Bronze achievements give 30 Shinedust
Silver gives 50
Gold gives 70
Platinum gives 100<\/p>\n
Events in the game are also a good source of Shinedust. Pokemon TCG Pocket has new events every week, and most of them reward Shinedust along with other resources. Some events let you trade Shinedust for event tickets. For example, in certain Wonder Pick events, you can exchange Shinedust 20 times for a total of 1000 Shinedust.<\/p>\n
Other events, like Drop events, give Shinedust as a chance reward for completing battles. Also, keep an eye out for promo codes because they sometimes give free Shinedust.<\/p>\n
Shinedust has two main uses right now. You can use it to exchange for Flairs. Flairs are visual effects you can put on your cards. They show when you battle or display your cards.<\/p>\n
Shinedust is also needed for trading cards. Trading can cost a lot of Shinedust depending on the rarity of the card. Here is how much Shinedust is required for each type:<\/p>\n
Common and Uncommon cards require 0 Shinedust
Rare cards need 1200
Double Rare need 5000
Art Rare need 4000
Super Art Rare and Special Art Rare need 25,000
Shiny Rare need 10,000
Super Shiny Rare need 30,000<\/p>\n
Managing your Shinedust carefully is important because it is used for some of the most valuable parts of the game.<\/p>\n
