Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors The next expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket is almost upon us, with dozens of new cards set to hit the game later this week, including a whole host of Johto-themed cards, as well as the first Baby Pokémon in the game. New sets typically come in two sizes, full expansions with two or more booster packs, and limited themed boosters, which only have one booster pack and are about half the size of a full expansion. Wisdom of Sea and Sky, the new expansion, will be the former, as it's a full expansion – likely marked A5 – with two booster sets based on Ho-Oh and Lugia.

Next Pokemon TCG Pocket Set Announced Featuring Ho-Oh and Lugia
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors While we were expecting to hear this news during the Pokémon Presents stream earlier in the week, we've got it now instead, with Pokémon TCG Pocket revealing Wisdom of the Sky and Sea as the next set that will be launching in the game on July 30, 2025.

The Pokémon Company International This set will have a heavy focus on the Johto region, featuring many classic Pokémon from the Gold, Silver, and Crystal games, with legendary duo Ho-Oh and Lugia taking center stage as the featured Pokémon for this set. There will be plenty of other cool cards on offer though, as the Pokémon Company has already shown off some special illustrations for the set, featuring Pichu and Togepi that look particularly adorable. We'll also be seeing the debut of cards that don't require energy to attack, which is sure to shake up the meta. This comes shortly after the announcement that the controversial Trade Token system is being done away with after fan backlash, with card trading now dependent on a new currency called Shinedust, which can be earned by completing missions and achievements, or through getting duplicate cards. This update will also be adding the new wishlist system, where you'll be able to wishlist 20 cards that you don't yet own alongside three favorites that will be displayed on your profile, so all your friends will know what you're after, making sorting our favourable trades a lot easier.
