Pokemon TCG Pocket unveils Shining Revelry, hints at Ranked Matches

The latest expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket, "Shining Revelry," has arrived, bringing over 110 new cards into the game, including dazzling shiny variants. This update introduces cards from the Paldea region, adding a fresh twist to your deck-building strategies. If you're like me, you'll be itching to use your Pack Hourglasses on a 10-pack pull. I dove right in and was thrilled to pull a Charizard EX, though the rest of the haul was less exciting. However, snagging a Pokémon Center Lady card was a nice surprise; her ability to heal Special Conditions could be a game-changer when facing off against a pesky Burn.

Alongside the new cards, the update also introduces an Emblem event, where you can earn new badges to show off to your friends. But the real excitement comes with the upcoming Ranked Matches, where you'll battle other Trainers and climb from Beginner to Master Ball Rank. Your progress will be tracked with points, and at the end of the approximately one-month season, you'll be awarded an emblem. It's time to dust off those dueling skills and start crafting your perfect deck.

If you're eager to dive into the fun, you can download Pokémon TCG Pocket for free on the App Store and Google Play, though be aware there are in-app purchases.
