Pokemon TCG Pocket has announced that a first-anniversary celebration will begin on October 29, along with a series of promo reissues, marking the first time such an event has occurred in the game's history. DeNA's Pokemon TCG Pocket launched on October 30, 2024, and has since been downloaded over 150 million times on Android and iOS devices.
On October 23, Pokemon TCG Pocket revealed more details about the upcoming Mega Rising expansion, which will introduce the first-ever Mega Evolved Pokemon to the game. Mega Rising will be the second expansion released in three different packs since A1 Genetic Apex, meaning it will feature a rather expansive roster of cards. But this isn't the only news fans should pay attention to, as DeNA has shared several other interesting updates.
