Pokémon TCG Pocket’s next expansion is bringing Alola back

The next set of Pokemon TCG Pocket cards feels like a reminder that spring and summertime is almost here.

Today, The Pokemon Company announced that Celestial Guardians, Pokemon TCG Pocket's next expansion, is set to release next week on April 30th. The new set will feature a number of monsters from the Pokemon Sun and Moon games on the Nintendo 3DS, like Solgaleo, Lunala, and regional variants of Raichu and Marowak. As has been the case with previous expansions, Celestial Guardians will also debut alongside a variety of events and special missions designed to gift players digital accessories.

Beginning on April 29th, you'll be able to participate in new solo battle event to earn promotional cards like Rayquaza ex. And according to TCPi, there will also be more than one Rayquaza ex card promo dropping in the coming weeks, which seems like a pretty solid way to get people logging back on regularly.
