Shiny Pokémon will be making their way to Pokémon TCG Pocket this March 27, along with a new themed booster pack titled Shining Revelry. Players can also look forward to the first season of ranked matches coming soon, which will bring a new way to battle in the app.
New Shining Revelry Themed Booster Pack
The new Shining Revelry themed booster pack allows players to discover a variety of Shiny Pokémon cards, featuring fan-favourites such as Charizard ex, Lucario ex, and Pachirisu, by opening digital booster packs and using the wonder pick feature. The Shiny Pokémon cards in Pokémon TCG Pocket sparkle when tilted, offering an exciting new way to view the cards in a digital format.

In addition, from April 1, players will also be able to obtain a stunning Shiny Charizard–themed display board and binder to show off their favourite cards.Beyond Shiny Pokémon, Shining Revelry will also introduce Pokémon and Trainers from the Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet video games, including Tatsugiri, Sprigatito, and Iono.
To celebrate the launch of Shining Revelry, players can participate in new ex Starter Deck missions from Friday, March 28, 2025, at 06:00 a.m. UTC to Sunday, April 27, 2025, at 05:59 a.m. UTC. Players can complete in-game missions to receive a deck ticket that can be exchanged for one of nine starter decks. Once a starter deck is chosen, the 20 cards included in it will be added to the player’s card collection.
