The upcoming Deluxe Pack ex expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket is set to launch on September 29th, introducing a fresh wave of collectible excitement. This new set is particularly notable for its inclusion of Parallel Foil cards, which showcase alternate artwork for existing cards enhanced by a distinctive shimmering effect. These visually striking additions are designed to stand out in any digital collection.
A major draw for collectors is the pack-opening mechanic itself. Every pack in the Deluxe Pack ex expansion guarantees one rare card or higher from previous sets. Specifically, each four-card pack will contain at least one card of ♦♦♦♦ rarity or better, pulling from a pool that includes the Genetic Apex set all the way through Wisdom of Sea and Sky. This provides a fantastic opportunity for players to fill gaps in their collections and acquire those elusive cards they may have missed.
Beyond the new card set, players can look forward to a schedule of in-app events throughout October. A Raichu ex Drop event is scheduled for October 6th, followed by a Parallel Foil Cards Mass Outbreak Event on the 23rd. These events promise additional ways to engage with the game and earn special rewards.
