'Pokémon Duel' Tier List: Rare EX Pokémon Through Boosters

The strategy virtual board game, "Pokémon Duel," is yet another fun and interactive game for fans of the franchise. However, Pokémon in this particular game are represented by figurines instead of actual monsters, and players hold a duel through a chess-like game wherein strategy and the right movement matters.

In this game, choosing Pokémon figurines are crucial when it comes to building a strong, winning party. Figurines are earned when a player wins battles or unlocks boosters.

Boosters are received after winning multiple battles or purchased by using gems in the game. Pokémon here are divided by tiers, namely the common, uncommon and rare (EX) ones.

As with other virtual games, the rare Pokémon posses stronger powers and are further divided into classes such as sprinters, battlers and defense - but these are also hard to find.

How can players obtain rare Pokémon?

The most common way is through the boosters that are rewarded after winning multiple battles. However, the chances of getting rare Pokémon from this is also rare. Boosters that are purchased through gems have a higher chance to contain rare Pokémon.

The best chance for players is to purchase the six-pack booster, which currently costs 300 gems. Players can also opt to purchase gems using real money, but these items can also be earned for free when players duel daily, finish quests and go on daily missions. Daily missions are simpler tasks and players get at least three missions to complete each day.

According to iDigitalTimes, the best sprinters are Latios, Ghastly and Greninja, while the best battlers are Moltres, Gabite and Lugia. Best rare defense goes to Articuno, Wobbuffet and Aggron. These rare Pokémon also need to be paired with each other in order to achieve better gameplay.

For example, players who chose Moltres as an offense should get Articuno as defense. Latios however also needs to be backed up by a strong defense Pokémon because he cannot be revived once he is hit hard.
