Now, a new expansion is scheduled to launch on December 17th, which will add a new set of Mega Evolution Pokemon Pokemon TCG Pocket. Beginner Kanto fans will be excited to see the addition of powerful new cards in the form of Mega Venusaur, Mega Blastoise, and Mega Charizard Y, all of which weigh at least 220 HP and come with some powerful attacks that have been revealed via the new trailer and on the official website. Pokemon website. Gen-1 starter Pokémon received new cards in several previously released boosters, but with the Mega Evolution mechanic only added to the game a few weeks ago, these latest iterations could even render their EX versions obsolete in the meta game.
The card that gets the most attention is Mega Charizard Y EX, which comes with 220 HP and a Crimson Dive attack that deals 250 damage when charged with four energies, although it deals 50 damage each time it is used. Mega Blastoise EX is slightly heavier at 230 HP, and its Triple Bombardment attack is more economical at three energy required, though six energy on it increases its attack value from 130 to 180 and deals an extra 50 damage each to two opposing benched Pokemon. Finally, Mega Venusaur EX comes with a whopping 250 HP, and for four energy, its Critical Bloom attack deals two Asleep and Poisoned status effects along with 120 damage. There's still no official sign that Mega Charizard X will be added to the Crimson Blaze expansion, but that doesn't necessarily mean it can't come as a surprise to the game.
There are also some newly discovered ones Pokemon TCG Pocket Trainer cards that have the potential to mix things up. The new Serena supporter card will allow players to put a random Mega Evolution Pokemon card into their hand, which should benefit players who have been having a hard time with the RNG of their decks. The Quick-Grow Extract Item card, which also increases the chance of getting a Mega Evolution early, works specifically with Grass-type Pokémon, allowing players to add a Mega Evolution card from the deck to a Pokémon in the game that would normally evolve into it. Finally, the upcoming Clemont Supporter Card is much more specialized, placing two random Magneton, Heliolisk, or Clemont's Backpack cards into players' hands from their decks.
Other cards that have been teased are new versions of Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Charmander, Charmeleon, Solosis, Trubbish, Ditto, Sunflora, and Spritzee. Since most of these Pokemon come from evolutionary lines, it's likely that other cards from those lines will be included when the expansion launches, including Ivysaur and Wartortle. Yet with how Rare Candy has changed Pokemon TCG Pocket's competitive scene, most players probably won't be too excited about the mid-stage development.
