Pokemon TCG Pocket is dropping a fiery new expansion. Shining Revelry lands on March 26, 2025, and yes, Black Charizard is leading the charge.
TCG Pocket has had two expansions now. Mythical Island came first, hyping up Mew, Celebi, and exclusive holiday packs. Then came, Space-Time Smackdown with Dialga, Palkia, and some fancy artwork. Fans were intrigued but wanted more.
The game has nailed balance between casual and competitive play and it made $120 million in three weeks – so, yeah, it’s doing fine. That said, it’s getting some steep competition from and old rival: Digimon.
Not everything is perfect in the Pokemon TCG Pocket world. Some players hate the early deck limitations. Others grumble about pay-to-win mechanics and the trade system. Still, TCG Pocket keeps evolving with a brand new expansion this March.

What’s coming in Shining Revelry Expansion for Pokemon TCG Pocket?
Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect this March 27, 2025, based on the trailer:
- Over 110 cards inspired by Scarlet & Violet
- Shiny variants
- Ranked matches
The new expansion isn’t holding back. Over 110 new cards are dropping, featuring Pokemon ex, new Trainers, and an “immersive” card designed to pull you into the world of Pokemon. And yes, a special Black Charizard is in the mix.
Shiny Pokemon are making their TCG Pocket debut, adding some extra dazzle to Paldean newcomers. This pack might just shake up the meta – and, let’s be real, probably your wallet, too.
The future of Pokemon TCG Pocket looks bright, or at least expensive. Trading features are in the pipeline, which could be game-changing (or game-breaking). More expansions will keep rolling in, and players are eager for more deck slots.
If Pokemon TCG Pocket keeps its momentum, it could cement itself as a must-play. But if monetization gets too aggressive, well… expect some rage quits. Either way, Black Charizard is coming.
