Previously, The Pokémon Company launched the Pokémon TCG Pocket “Mega Rising” expansion on October 30, marking the introduction of Mega-Evolved Pokémon. The expansion introduced three new booster packs—Mega Rising: Mega Gyarados, Mega Rising: Mega Blaziken and Mega Rising: Mega Altaria. What’s more, a new share feature will be introduced, allowing players to give ♦–♦♦♦♦ rarity cards to friends, with a limit of one card given and received per day. Players will be able to trade cards from the latest expansions and booster packs, including ♦–♦♦♦♦ and ★ rarity cards, ★★ and Shiny 1–Shiny 2 rarity cards. Unobtained cards will also appear more often via the Wonder Pick system, which will also display the number of cards players currently on.
Lastly, Pokémon TCG Pocket is available now for Android and iOS.
