For those trainers that "gotta catch 'em all" in style, you're in luck! Pokemon is getting special edition PokeBall tins to keep those treasured cards safe while getting one step closer to be an IRL trainer.
We don't know much about the new tins at this time other than they will be available pretty much everywhere: America, Europe, and internationally on November 16th. They will also come with three booster backs and a coin. We're assuming that the tins will be made out of aluminum, as they have been in the past. There will also be standalone versions of the Poke Ball and the Quick Ball, so players can have their pick of what they want to include in their experience.
