Not done collecting all the cards in Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Celestial Guardians Expansion, which dropped literally just three weeks ago? Too bad. Here comes another expansion. It’s called Extradimensional Crisis, it’ll be out on May 29, and it features the wacky-looking Ultra Beasts and creepy chimera Pokemon Type: Null.
Extradimensional Crisis includes the Ultra Beasts, which are weird alien-looking guys that featured prominently in Pokemon Sun and Moon as invaders from another dimension. Confirmed cards include Buzzwole ex, Blacephalon, Nihilego, and Guzzlord ex. We’re also getting more Alola Pokemon to add to the ones introduced in Celestial Guardians, and Type: Null (which likely means its evolution, Silvally, is coming too).
A new expansion also means new cosmetics, and we’re getting an Ultra Beast-themed binder cover available in exchange for shop tickets beginning May 29, and a floral display board for purchase with event tickets from an upcoming Wonder Pick event starting June 11.
Pokemon TCG Pocket has been dropping expansions at a healthy clip ever since its launch last year. Though Extradimensional Crisis is technically a minor booster expansion (just one booster pack type instead of two or three), it’s still coming right on the heels of the expansions before it. Extradimensional Crisis is the seventh expansion total and the fourth smaller expansion alongside Mythical Island, Triumphant Light, and Shining Revelry. For now, none of the expansions have been retired, and all are still available in game… for now.
