Pokémon TCG Pocket: Mega Rising expansion release time

by

The next big expansion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, called Mega Rising, is coming out soon, and it’s predicted to be the largest release yet. Unlike most expansions that include one or two sets of booster packs with around 100 cards each, Mega Rising will feature three booster packs and a total of over 300 cards.

I’m so hyped for the new Pokémon TCG Pocket set – it’s the first B-series one! Honestly, after the issues with the Deluxe Pack ex – so many people were frustrated with it and it’s been everywhere lately – we’re all really eager to get our hands on something new. A lot of us have been wondering when the Mega Rising expansion is coming out, and I’ve got the details for you!

In this guide we’ll go over the exact release time for Pokémon TCG Pocket’s Mega Rising expansion.
