Flairs are cosmetic items that have no effects on the card—they are for aesthetic purposes only.

To unlock a flare, you need a minimum of three copies of the card and enough shine dust.

Here’s how to equip flair in Pokemon TCG Pocket:

  1. Open Pokemon TCG Pocket.
  2. Tap on the card icon on the bottom navigation bar (second icon).
  3. Select the card that you want to equip the flair on.
  4. Obtain Flair > Exchange/Equip > OK.

Different rarities require varying amounts of duplicates and shine dust to unlock.

Battle flares are visible only in battles and aren’t displayed in binders.

Cosmetic flares can be used in binders, enhancing cards for collection purposes.

Common cards require sequential unlocking of flares, while rare cards provide direct access to different flare options.
