Hi Trainers! Here’s your curated Pokémon update for today, packed with new gameplay reveals, nostalgic set highlights and real world promo drama.
## 1. Mega Evolutions Shake Up Pokémon TCG Pocket
Starting this autumn, **Mega Altaria ex**, **Mega Gyarados ex**, and **Mega Blaziken ex** are going to battle in **Pokémon TCG Pocket**. That’s not all, these Mega Evolutions come with a twist: they’re powerful, last‑minute finishers, and taking one down nets your opponent all three prize cards instantly. A dramatic, high‑risk high‑reward dynamic is on the horizon.
## 2. Black Bolt & White Flare Dual Sets Launch with Unova Nostalgia
The TCG just turned back time with **Black Bolt & White Flare**, a dual Unova-themed mini‑set released in English that includes all 156 Pokémon and introduces a striking new rarity, Black White Rare (BWR). Released on **18 July 2025**, these sets blend nostalgia with modern presentation.
## 3. McDonald’s Japan Cancels Pokémon Card Promo After Chaos
A McDonald’s Happy Meal Pokémon card promotion in Japan ended in disarray as adult scalpers stockpiled cards, discarded the food, and sparked cluttered, chaotic scenes. With safety and waste mounting, the campaign was abruptly cancelled. McDonald’s apologised and plans to add purchase limits next time.
