Tired of too many ads? go ad free now In Pokemon TCG Pocket, new sets either come in the form of full expansions with booster packs or with one single booster pack, which is half of the size of the original set. Similarly, Extradimensional Crisis is going to follow the same path. Pokemon TCG Pocket: All cards in the Extradimensional Crisis booster pack Pokémon TCG Pocket: Extradimensional Crisis | Coming May 29 Extradimensional Crisis becomes the fourth themed booster pack after Shining Revelry in Pokemon TCG Pocket. Extradimensional Crisis features over 100 cards, among them mostly based on the Ultra Beasts from the Sun & Moon era. Ultra Beasts are those Pokemons which have the experience of traveling through the wormholes and are based on the Alola Region. Here are all available cards featured in the Extradimensional Crisis booster pack: Alolan Diglett Alolan Dugtrio ex Alolan Meowth Alolan Persian Arcanine Arcanine ex Aron Baltoy Beast Wall Beastite Bewear Blitzle Blacephalon Buzzwole ex Carvanha Celebi ex Celesteela Clefairy Clefable Claydol Decidueye Dartrix Electrical Cord Emolga Ferroseed Ferrothorn Froakie Frogadier Guzzlord ex Gladion Growlithe Herdier Jynx Kartana Krokorok Krookodile Lairon Lilligant Lillipup Looker Lusamine Luxio Luxray Lycanroc ex Medicham Meditite Mantine Morelull Naganadel Nihilego Oranguru Passimian Petilil Pheromosa Phantump Pidgeot Pidgeot ex Pidgeotto Pidgey Poipole Repel Rockruff Sandile Sandygast Sharpedo Shiinotic Silvally Shinx Stakataka Stoutland Stufful Tapu Koko ex Trevenant Type: Null Xurkitree Zeraora Zebstrika Celebi ex Aerodactyl Aerodactyl ex Pidgey Pidgeotto Pidgeot Pidgeot ex Lycanroc ex Guzzlord ex Alolan Dugtrio ex Buzzwole ex Tapu Koko ex Aerodactyl ex Arcanine ex Growlithe Jynx Frogadier Froakie Greninja Nihilego Silvally Lusamine Gladion Looker Buzzwole ex Lycanroc ex Ultra Beasts work similarly to regular cards in most ways, such as attaching energy and attacking, but some of them work in concert with one another to provide TCG Pocket a new deck archetype. These cards are going to be one of the rarest types to ever grace the game. For example: the Buzzwole ex is a grass type Pokemon with two attacks named Punch and Big Beast. On the other hand, Guzzlord ex is a darkness type Pokemon with again two attacks, Grindcore and Tyrannical Hole. The Extradimensional Crisis (A3a) also features a Dragon-type ex card for the first time in the game which is Ultra Necrozma ex. This card wasn't shown in the trailer initially, so it is really going to be an exciting treat for the fans. Read More:

Pokemon TCG Pocket's Breakneck Expansion Releases Are Stressing Me Out
Pokemon TCG Pocket's next Alola-themed set is releasing on May 29. Extradimensional Crisis is a sister expansion to the recent Celestial Guardians set -- and it's introducing the wacky and weird Ultra Beasts to the game. Every Pokemon from another dimension now has a special Ultra Beast tag displayed just under its health point total. And certain Pokemon abilities and Trainer cards from the new set will only work on cards with this tag. While there are always new cards that shake up the metagame, this expansion looks ike it will largely introduce cards that play well with others in the set. Extradimensional Crisis is one of TCG Pocket's smaller base set expansions. These companion sets are often released a month or so after a big expansion. Mythical Island released after the massive Genetic Apex launch set, and Triumphant Light was the supplement to Space-Time Showdown. Normally, I'd love to rip into packs in order to hunt more than 100 new base set cards being added to the game. Buzzwole, Nihilego and Guzzlord are some of my favorite monsters from the seventh-gen Pokemon games and the art for their cards is gorgeous. This time around, I'm just not able to get as excited about the new drop. The Ultra Beasts are getting their first base set cards -- and some flashy full art alternatives. DeNA/Screenshot by CNET Pokemon TCG Pocket is releasing expansions too quickly for me I've played Pokemon TCG Pocket every day since launch. With few exceptions, I've opened both of my free daily packs -- even if I have to stay up past my usual bedtime to do so. Ripping these suckers open has become a part of my daily routine, and I've been largely content to do so (even when I pull five common base set dupes). But these expansions are getting a little out of hand now. For most games, having too much content is a good problem to have, but struggling to keep up with a collectible game saps the fun. Extradimensional Crisis will be the seventh set released in the game over the course of eight months. Despite my diligence, I've only completed a single base set -- Shining Revelry -- and I've never completed a master set with all of the full art cards and shiny Pokemon. To be clear, I don't expect to be able to keep up with every expansion in the game. I don't even want to collect all of the secret cards -- I just want to put together the base sets. I'm a fully free-to-play TCG Pocket gamer, and developer DeNA Games needs to make money to keep the app running. New releases grease peoples' palms and keep the money flowing. I was lucky enough to pull the shiny Charizard full art card from Shining Revelry -- moments like that are what keep me hooked on TCG Pocket. DeNA/Screenshot by CNET Even still, these releases have been dropping at such breakneck speeds that I don't feel like I can return to past sets to finish collecting the cards I'm missing. It's disheartening to complete the majority of an expansion and then leave it behind with so many gaps. This sentiment seems to be shared among at least some parts of the Pokemon TCG Pocket community. It's probably not a great sign when a contingent of the top comments on the YouTube video of your next big reveal are asking you to stop revealing things. "Crisis? [The only] crisis is the one I'm having with so few hourglasses," said one commenter. Another person put things more plainly: "Honestly, I'd prefer if they'd slow the rollout of the expansions a little bit. Let the sets take hold for a few months and then drop bigger, higher quality sets." The joking hides real frustration, as many free players haven't been able to complete the game's full base sets. I'm not asking for these releases to be spaced out too far apart, but a single month between expansions is starting to feel untenable. Double the downtime between sets and let people breathe -- and maybe I'll finally be able to finish up Genetic Apex.

Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket is adding that really jacked bug in next update
Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket will get its next major update on Thursday, May 29 which will add a new booster pack to the popular mobile game. Dubbed Extradimensional Crisis, the new pack will add Ultra Beasts from Pokémon Sun and Moon to the mix. Since its release last year, Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket has received regular updates. Its most recent one, which featured two Celestial Guardians booster packs, introduced critters from the Alola region to the card game. Extradimensional Crisis will continue that thread, adding some missing monsters to the card pool. Recommended Videos The big news is that the packs will add Ultra Beasts to the game, a set of eclectic Pokémon that are exclusive to Sun and Moon. That means that you'll be able to battle with some of the series' strangest — and most absurdly named — creatures, like Buzzwole and Guzzlord. Type: Null will get its own card too, bringing a very peculiar legendary to the game. The update will also add more Alolan Pokémon to the mix, including new EX cards. A new trailer shows off a bunch of those new cards, which includes Tapu Koko EX. As part of the update, the shop will be updated with some new collectibles. An Ultra Beast binder cover is coming and will be purchasable with shop tickets. Players can grab a floral display board too by participating in a new Wonder Pick event that will run between June 11 and June 28. So consider this a bit of a PSA: start saving your hourglasses now. If you're like me, you'll probably want to do some 10 pack pulls early to get a chunk of the collection completed. If you're hurting for resources, don't forget to do your single player battles, as those will give you a lot as rewards. Monthly hourglass packs will also refresh in the shop at the end of May, so make sure to grab as many as you can now. Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket is available now on iOS and Android devices.

The Next Pokémon TCG Pocket Expansion Brings Ultra Beasts Next Week
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors The Pokémon Company has announced the next expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket, and it's set to launch next week in the app. The new expansion is called Extradimensional Crisis, and it's a themed booster pack, meaning it's limited to a single booster pack – rather than two like full expansions – and is likely to add around 100-150 cards to the game. Extradimensional Crisis will add Ultra Beast Pokémon cards to Pokémon TCG Pocket, strange creatures from another dimension that have a special designation in the TCG.

The Pokémon Company A number of Ultra Beast cards were revealed in a press release accompanying the announcement, including some Pokémon ex cards, regular cards designated as an Ultra Beast card, and even full art variants of the Pokémon. Other related cards, like Type: Null and Pokémon ex versions of Guardian Pokémon like Tapu Koko, were also revealed to be coming to the game. More Trainer cards are coming in the new set, too, with a Lusamine card revealed in the expansion's trailer. It's likely that these cards will interact and engage with Ultra Beast cards, allowing greater flexibility than Trainer cards that require specific types or even specific Pokémon to be effective. The Lusamine card, for example, allows you to take two random energy from your discard pile and add it to an Ultra Beast card on your field. The expansion comes after the introduction of Alolan Pokémon in the last full TCG Pocket set, which was titled Celestial Guardians and focused on Pokémon and trainers introduced in Pokémon Sun and Moon. Ultra Beasts were also introduced in those games, so it seems as if Extradimensional Crisis acts as further expansion of the Celestial Guardians set. The Extradimensional Crisis expansion will be released in Pokémon TCG Pocket on May 29, 2025. A number of events themed around the expansion will also be added to the game following its introduction, including solo battle events, Wonder Pick events, and Mass Outbreak events:
