The Pokémon Company has confirmed a limited-time booster release for Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket titled Deluxe Pack: Mega.
The special booster run will be available from the evening of Sept. 29 through the evening of Oct. 28 (PDT), offering players a concentrated selection of previously released cards spanning the Mega Rising through Ruler of the Skies sets.
What Deluxe Pack: Mega includes
Deluxe Pack: Mega booster packs will contain four cards each.
The publisher says one card in every booster is guaranteed to be of ♦♦♦♦ rarity or higher.
The pack consolidates cards released in earlier booster sets and highlights previously issued ♦♦♦♦ rarity cards.
Players can also expect select cards to receive new illustrations or glossy parallel foil treatments during the event window.
Rewritten announcement in journalistic terms
The Pokémon Company stated that Deluxe Pack: Mega will give players temporary access to a curated collection of high-rarity and visually updated cards from earlier series, and that the promotion will run for a one-month period starting Sept. 29.
Late-October app update
An app update scheduled for late October will add a community deck feature that lets players view publicly shared decks.
According to the developer notes, players will be able to recreate similar builds using cards already in their collection, and they will have the option to rent decks composed of cards from the newest booster packs and use those rented decks an unlimited number of times.
The update will also introduce a reworked step-up battle feature and retire several legacy features; further details are available from official patch notes.
Event schedule and highlights
- Parallel Foil Cards Mass Outbreak Event (late September–early October): Parallel foil cards will appear in rare picks and bonus picks, and missions during the event will grant shop tickets.
- Ranked Match Season B4b SP (mid–late October): Players can earn extra rank points for win streaks up to 10 matches; losses will not deduct rank points or cause rank drops during this season.
- Mega Garchomp ex Drop Event (mid–late October): Special solo battles will award B Series promo packs vol. 13.
- Wonder Pick Event (mid–late October): Promo cards featuring Charmander and Drampa will appear in wonder picks, and event missions will provide an event shop ticket redeemable for a promo card at the in-game Shop.
