Many card illustrations feature fantastical settings unrelated to established Pokémon lore. Some, like a Pikachu card, mirror real-world collectible cards. However, the hidden Easter eggs are unique to Pokémon TCG Pocket.

The community is actively searching for more connections. Recent findings include the S.S. Anne on a Gyarados card and a storyline involving Oddish, Venonat, and Bellsprout near Snorlax's seaside location in FireRed and LeafGreen.
