| '''Coins''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンコイン''' ''Pokémon Coin''), also officially recognized as '''metallic coins''', are one of two types of randomizers that players can use during a Pokémon TCG match. The majority of coins released for the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] are made of plastic with a metallic Pokémon design on the front, which can be of anything from [[starter Pokémon]] and [[Legendary Pokémon]] to designs commemorating a specific event or featuring the original Energy Symbols.

| | ==Dice== |
| | Coins have begun to fall out of favor among Pokémon players, who have gradually started to prefer the second officially recognized ''randomizer'': '''dice (Six-sided Dice)''', for their utility and convenience. When using dice, the ''even number'' sides represent ''Heads'' and the ''odd number'' sides represent ''Tails''. Because of this, coins have progressively become more and more of a collectable than a tool for determining outcomes during a TCG match. However, due to the frequency they are released, their occasional limited availability, and their exclusivity to certain countries such as {{pmin|South Korea}}, {{pmin|Japan}}, {{pmin|the United Kingdom}} and {{pmin|the United States}}, no complete list of all released coins exists publicly online. |

| Coin flips are an integral part of the design of a vast number of cards released in the TCG and are used in a variety of ways.

Coin flips can result in an additional positive effect on a successful heads, or an additional negative effect on a tails. {{TCG|XY}} {{TCG ID|XY|Spewpa|16}}'s {{m|Stun Spore}} inflicts a {{TCG|Special Condition}} on the opponent's Active Pokémon on a success, while {{TCG|Platinum}} {{TCG ID|Platinum|Vigoroth|64}}'s Reckless Charge attack inflicts damage to itself on a failure.

Play! Pokémon
Play! Pokémon details several rules on coins and coin flips during TCG matches:
- Any coin released with any Pokémon TCG product from EX Ruby & Sapphire on should be considered fair and impartial.
- Any other coin (such as local currency) brought by a player to be used as a randomizer. Players should consider whether or not the coin in question is light enough not to damage or mark cards it lands on and whether or not heads or tails can be determine at a glance.
- When flipped, a coin should be held at shoulder height, and fully rotate at least three times before landing on the table.
- Coins should land as flat on the table as possible. If both players cannot agree on the result of the flip, a judge may be called to determine whether the result is conclusive or if the coin must be flipped again.
- Coin flips that land outside the playing area (off of the table or in another game’s playing area) are considered invalid and must be flipped again.
- Once players have agreed on the result of a coin flip, it cannot be redone.
- Once a judge has ruled that a result is conclusive, it cannot be redone.
Design
The original cardboard and metal coins for the English release of the TCG were produced by Wizards of the Coast during Generation I and Generation II. Japanese coins during Generation I feature a back with the seven original card type symbols. When Metal-type and Darkness-type were added to the game in Generation II, however, the backs were changed to feature a Poké Ball and the official Pokémon Logo. When Wizards of the Coast lost the license for the card game for EX Ruby & Sapphire onwards, coins released for English audiences were imported from Japan and distributed in English products. This remained true until August 2010 and the release of the Undaunted expansion. All coins for international audiences after this month are produced by The Pokémon Company International, however, leftover stock of the standard sized Japanese coins were still included in TCG merchandise up until April 2014, when the stock was exhausted. Current English coins feature the ™ trademark distinction on the back while Japanese feature the ® trademark symbol. Ever since the Pokémon Card Game returned to Korea in May 2010 with the release of the Start of an Adventure expansion, coins in Korean products are produced in Japan.
With the English Next Destinies expansion in February 2012, The Pokémon Company International began producing colored backs alternate to the standard black. Japan has remained with the standard black. Up until the release of the English Plasma Freeze expansion in May 2013, all standard coins were of the same size. However, in order to remove the not for children under 3 warning from their products, The Pokémon Company International began producing coins of a larger size. Japan, however, continued producing the coins at their standard size.
In the games
Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!
In Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!, there are several collectible coins that can be obtained by the protagonist, Mark or Mint. These coins are used as proof of achievements within the game, much like Gym Badges from the core series or the Medals from the previous TCG Game Boy game. Besides marking achievements, the player may choose one of their coins to use in duels for coin flips in place of their original coin. The appearance and purpose of these coins mimic the real-life collectible coins.

e-Reader

Pokémon Trading Card Game Online
As the Pokémon Trading Card Game Online is based on the physical Pokémon Trading Card Game, the game utilizes coins in the same way. However, the online features commemorative coins online that aren't physically available. For example, in the code card package received by participants of the 2014 World Championships, a commemorative coin was included. Each Theme Deck code card also includes the deck's coin, and older retired coins are being progressively made available by using the game's Prize Wheel.
