Pokémon TCG Finally Reveals Cards From Pokémon GO Expansion
The Pokémon Trading Card Game has finally revealed cards and complete product descriptions from the upcoming special Pokémon GO expansion. Releasing on July 1st, 2022, this special collaboration inspired by Niantic's mobile game will include Pokémon TCG cards featuring photorealistic artwork and gameplay inspired by the beloved mobile title. Let's get into the details.
Here's what the Pokémon TCG had to say about this upcoming special release:
Certain cards illustrate Pokémon as if they have jumped out into the real world, such as Pikachu walking alongside its Trainer and Snorlax sleeping wherever it pleases, while other cards portray Pokémon in scenes that are familiar to the mobile game, such as Blissey valiantly defending a Gym and Aipom dodging a Poké Ball. In addition, objects and characters from the world of Pokémon GO will appear as Trainer cards, such as PokéStop as a Stadium card and Lure Module as an Item card, as well as Spark of Team Instinct, Blanche of Team Mystic and Candela of Team Valor as Supporter cards.
