Pokémon TCG Pocket Fans Wonder: Where Are the Baby Pokémon?

Evolutions are key in any Pokémon game, but some players have noticed that “baby” Pokémon are missing in Pokémon TCG Pocket.

Some Pokémon Skip Their Baby Forms

  • Roselia can be played without Budew, while Lucario still requires Riolu.
  • Pikachu can be played without Pichu, but other Pokémon follow the usual evolution rules.
  • Fans on Reddit pointed out that Pokémon like Elekid and Munchlax are missing altogether.

Why Are Some Baby Pokémon Left Out?

  • Generational Gaps – Some baby Pokémon, like Budew, were introduced after their evolved forms debuted in earlier games.
  • Baby Pokémon Are Their Own Class – Traditionally, baby Pokémon can evolve but are not always required for their evolved forms to be played.
  • Gameplay Balancing – Some fans joke that Budew’s attack requires no energy, which might affect game balance.

Will Baby Pokémon Be Added Later?

With Pokémon TCG Pocket still growing, it’s likely that missing baby Pokémon will be added in future updates. For now, fans will have to wait and hope their favorites make it into the game.
