Pokemon TCG Pocket Celestial Guardians Adding Rare Candy Card to Shake Up the Meta

by

The latest expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket, Celestial Guardians, is introducing one of the most eagerly awaited cards since the game’s debut: Rare Candy. Upon its arrival with the Rare Candy item card, Stage 2 Pokémon are now significantly stronger and can challenge the current dominant Pokémon, such as Giratina and Darkrai. The Celestial Guardians expansion is due for release on April 30th, bringing a host of cards from Alola and other Pokémon regions. The metagame will experience a drastic shift as both new and existing Stage 2 Pokémon will reap significant benefits from Rare Candy. Players are already brainstorming which Pokémon will rule the metagame once the Celestial Guardians expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket arrives.

In the world of Pokemon Trading Card Game (TCG), Rare Candy has been a familiar item, yet remained unavailable to Pokemon TCG Pocket players until recently. The Celestial Guardians set brings this card into play, enabling players to develop a Basic Pokemon directly into a Stage 2 Pokemon, bypassing all Stage 1 evolutions in the process. This accelerates the pace at which players can deploy a Stage Pokemon and eliminates the necessity of including Stage 1 Pokemon in the deck altogether.

As a devoted fan, I can’t help but be thrilled about the upcoming revelations in the Celestial Guardians stage! It’s clear that Charizard ex from Shining Revelry is gearing up for a significant enhancement. With its Stoke ability and the handy use of Rare Candy, gamers will be able to activate Steam Artillery within just three turns. Additionally, the Charizard ex from Genetic Apex is expected to surge in popularity due to this exciting update.

In simpler terms, cards being talked about include Gallade ex, Beedrill ex, and Meowscarada from the Shining Revelry set. These are solid choices against common Pokemon in play right now. The anticipation is high for the Ultra Ball card to be included, as it will enhance the consistency of Stage 2 decks even further.

In the game Pokemon TCG Pocket, it’s now easier for several Stage 2 cards that previously took too long to become functional to shine. Given the numerous threats in the meta that are Basic EX Pokémon, it has been challenging to manage their damage output and securely put a Stage 2 Pokémon into play. Moreover, Lillie offers an impressive amount of healing to these Stage 2 Pokémon.

It’s clear that Stage 2 Pokémon will dominate the gameplay in ‘Pokemon TCG Pocket’ due to the Celestial Guardians set. However, which Pokémon will ultimately be the best has yet to be determined. Some potential top choices are already being discussed by experts.
