Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Next Expansion Introduces Shiny Pokemon

by

This morning, the mobile game version of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, known as Pokémon TCG Pocket, unveiled its upcoming expansion, which is scheduled for release in the app on March 27th. This expansion will feature Pokémon from the Paldea region and Shiny Pokémon for avid collectors to obtain. The new expansion will be a themed booster pack for Pokémon TCG Pocket, meaning that there will only be one type of pack available, similar to the Mythical Island and Triumphant Light expansions. The expansion will be called Shining Revelry. As an added bonus, a teaser trailer showcasing some of the new cards was also released along with the announcement.

The main attraction of the upcoming booster pack is that it’s going to feature Shiny versions of Pokemon characters. This is a fresh addition to the app, as Shiny hunting – a beloved aspect of the Pokemon pastime – is now coming to Pokemon TCG Pocket. Some much-loved Shinies will be included in the pack, and their cards will display a shimmering animation when viewed. Simultaneously, with the release of this new booster pack on March 27th, players can embark on a fresh set of EX Starter Deck missions called Shining Revelry. Starting from April 1st, exclusive Shiny Charizard-themed items will be up for grabs in the in-game shop, including a new game board and binder.

As a die-hard fan, I couldn’t help but notice that the teaser trailer for Pokemon TCG Pocket subtly hinted at something extraordinary. To our delight, ranked matches are officially coming to Pokemon TCG Pocket, starting with the launch of Shining Revelry! The inaugural ranked season in Pokemon TCG Pocket kicks off on March 27th at 11 PM PDT and continues until April 26th at 10:59 PDT. Get ready to go head-to-head with fellow trainers of similar skill levels, as you compete to earn exclusive seasonal emblems reflecting your impressive rank!
