On April 30, 2025, the popular smartphone app game "Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket" (often referred to as "PokéPoke") unveiled its latest expansion pack, "Twin Skies Guardians." This highly anticipated release features iconic Pokémon from the "Pokémon Sun and Moon" series, including the legendary creatures Solgaleo and Lunala, alongside a host of other beloved characters.
The new expansion pack is divided into two versions: "Twin Skies Guardians Solgaleo" and "Twin Skies Guardians Lunala." Each pack showcases stunning visuals and dynamic effects, particularly with cards like "Solgaleo ex" and "Lunala ex," which offer an interactive experience when players tilt their devices. The game is designed to enhance the enjoyment of Pokémon card collection and battle, making it accessible for fans of all ages.
In addition to the legendary Pokémon, the new expansion introduces several fan-favorites, including Alolan Raichu, Mokuroh, Nyabby, and Ashimari. Players can also look forward to the addition of powerful cards like Garchomp ex and Junaipa ex, along with support cards featuring popular characters such as Lillie and Guzma. Lillie provides a valuable effect by recovering 60 HP from one of your two-evolution Pokémon, while Guzma can trash all "Pokémon Tools" from all of your opponent's Pokémon, making strategic gameplay more exciting.
As part of the launch festivities, a special event titled the "Rayquaza ex Drop Event" is being held from April 30 to May 13, 2025. During this time, players can earn promo card packs that include the highly sought-after "Rayquaza ex" card. Additionally, a "Special Mission 2025" is also underway, where completing specific tasks will reward players with the Rayquaza ex promo card and other exclusive items.
The release of "Twin Skies Guardians" marks a significant milestone for PokéPoke, which has already achieved remarkable success since its launch in October 2024. The app has surpassed 100 million downloads globally, a testament to its popularity and the engaging experience it offers. DeNA, the company behind PokéPoke, reported that the game business sales revenue for the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2025 is expected to exceed 25 billion yen, largely driven by the success of this app.
As fans eagerly dive into the new expansion, they can also look forward to new collection items that will be available starting May 1, 2025. This includes a collection file and board featuring Mokuroh, adding to the excitement of card collection and display.
Overall, the launch of "Twin Skies Guardians" not only expands the Pokémon card universe but also enhances the community of players who enjoy battling and collecting. With its unique features and engaging gameplay, PokéPoke continues to capture the hearts of fans around the world.
