Best-Looking Card Sleeves In Pokemon Pocket

When it comes to personalizing things in competitive settings, there isn’t always a whole lot that you can do. Even when it’s in a digital format, like Pokemon Pocket. But one of the ways you can set your deck apart from other players is by choosing a card sleeve for those precious Pokemon cards.

Do you have these rare and beautiful cards, but don’t know how to display them? Use one of these display boards in Pokemon Pocket.

Do you need card sleeves? Again, in this very digital game, they aren’t actually protecting anything from getting scratched, dusty, or bent. But it’s still a cool way to show off your deck and the accessories you’ve unlocked. But which ones are the best? This list will explore some of the greatest options.

Eevee Card Sleeve

Just Happy To Be Here

One of the most popular Pokemon, Eevee, takes center stage in these card sleeves. Well, they have to, there’s not much space on the sleeves. Not only is this a stylish way to show your love for number 133 (at least when it comes to the national dex), but it’s also the game’s only option when you first start. Aside from the standard card back.

While there are other options you can unlock for free, there are a lot of options you have to pay for in one way or another. So having something so fun and energetic from the start is nice. And this makes a great option for Colorless decks or ones that heavily feature an eeveelution or two.

Special Set 01 Card Sleeve

So Professional, So Sleek

Does anyone else think of that business card scene from American Psycho when they go up against an opponent with the Special Set 01 card sleeves? This can be an intimidating sleeve to see. All the whimsy and cuteness that was part of the Eevee card sleeve? Chuck it out the nearest window.

Don’t discount the power of these Item cards; they can truly change the tide of battle in an instant.

However, it is a very clean card sleeve that doesn’t feel odd paired with anything. For some who feel obligated to match card sleeve to deck type, you avoid that completely. Just like the saying ‘black goes with anything’. Not to mention, the shine is a fun feature that makes these sleeves feel realistic.

Gardevoir Card Sleeve

Psychic Users, Rejoice

Gardevoir is a Pokemon that has a hold on many hearts… for many reasons. A big part of that is this Pokemon’s design, and that’s the same mentality for these card sleeves. It highlights this Pokemon in a nice, neat, circular design with flowers as well as purple and pink hues.

If you like things to match, not only would this naturally fit a Psychic-themed deck, but it would work wonders with a flowery, Grass-type deck as well. This matches especially well if you plan to use the Flabébé evolution line. Heck, especially if you use Florges and Gardevoir together. Though, of course, you can use this on any deck, regardless of its make-up.

Mythical Island: Mew Card Sleeve

Psychic Users Stay Winning

The Mythical Island expansion is all about Mew. Not only is Mew on the front of the packs of cards you can choose, but many of the awards you get as you collect cards are centered around the new species Pokemon too. That includes these cute sleeves showing Mew looking directly at you while floating over lush scenery.

Just like with Gardevoir, if you’re looking to match this sleeve to a deck, Psychic and Grass-type decks would look wonderful when paired with this illustration of Mew. Bonus points if you have a playmat that plays off of these two themes as well.

6

Blastoise Card Sleeve

Plus Blue. Or Gary? No, Definitely Blue

Blastoise is cool, period. So slapping this Water-type Pokemon on a card makes the list pretty easily. Beyond that, though, this is a dynamic scene showing Blastoise and Blue in a battle, launching a powerful water attack from his big, bad, back cannons.

It sends a powerful message as you get into a battle with an opponent, whether you choose to use a Water-type deck or not. You’re here to fight and fight fiercely. Or you really like Blastoise. Could really be either. But no matter the reason, your deck will look really cool.

5

Erika Card Sleeve

She’s Beauty, She’s Grace

This illustration of Erika and her Vileplume is beautiful. It’s a smaller version of her binder cover, but you get to enjoy it every time you battle instead of only when you are looking through your ever-growing card collection.

These are graceful card sleeves to take into a battle. Not as aggressive a sleeve as the Blastoise one. That’s not to say that you can’t even use that to your advantage by throwing your best, most powerful deck into these sleeves and rocking the digital trading card battlescape.

4

Mewtwo Card Sleeve

Move Over Mew Sleeve

Mewtwo is a powerful force to be reckoned with. Not only with its ex card, but also in how it’s illustrated in all the Pokemon Pocket art. These sleeves are no exception. This sleeve depicts Mewtwo charging up a mighty attack in the palm of its hand. Use it as a metaphor for the attacks you will unleash on your foes in battle.

While, again, you can use any card sleeve on any deck, this would match well with Psychic and even Darkness decks, thanks to the background and coloring of the image printed on these sleeves. And, naturally, you can have this as your chosen sleeve if you do plan to use a Mewtwo ex deck.

3

Pikachu Card Sleeve

A Happy Pikachu Is A Good Pikachu

Moving away from the ferocity of Mewtwo, this card sleeve option is adorable. Pikachu are playing, sleeping, and eating in this canopy of trees, bringing a much more uplifting energy to any battle you take part in. Or lulling your enemy into a false sense of security.

Can the flip of a single coin can truly decide a match? With these powerful moves, almost certainly.

While you could use this with any Electric-type deck, or even go based off the trees and slide some Grass-type Pokemon into these sleeve, you could go all out. Nothing but Pikachu and Raichu cards. Not only do both Pokemon have powerful options when it comes to cards, but having an immersive Pikachu ex card on the field with these sleeves would be perfect.

2

Charizard Card Sleeve

Your Enemies Will Need Some Burn Heal For This

With all due respect to Blastoise, Charizard is also one incredibly awesome Pokemon. It may not have back cannons, but it wouldn’t be able to because of its dragon-like wings. Instead of showing Charizard with a trainer, like Red, it’s on its own, surrounded by wisps of fire.

With an angry and determined expression on Charizard’s face, any deck you use these sleeves with is going to radiate that desire to battle and win. It goes without saying, this would be a great choice for a Fire deck, even more so if you plan to use a Charizard ex card or two in the fight.

1

Meowth Card Sleeve

All Things That Glitter Are Gold

Okay, Meowth may not be nearly as threatening or intimidating as a Blastoise, Charizard, or Mewtwo. Nor does its popularity outshine those Pokemon. But Meowth has got something magical about it, especially in this card that depicts nothing but gold, gems, and treasure. So having your deck sitting snuggly in Meowth’s card sleeves only enhances the value of what you’ve brought to the fight.

Having just as much focus in the image on the wealth Meowth has makes it so that it can really be universal when it comes to deck and sleeve themes matching. After all, it’s really just saying what you’ve got in your deck is gold. So go out there and take those trainers’ money, you’ve earned it! Okay, you might not win money, but you’ll feel like you did if you use these sleeves.
