Pokémon TCG Pocket's Wisdom of Sea and Sky Expansion Arrives
The highly anticipated Wisdom of Sea and Sky expansion for Pokémon TCG Pocket is now live, bringing familiar faces from the cherished Johto region. First introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver, Johto holds special nostalgia for longtime fans who grew up with these classic games.
Legendary Additions and Game-Changing Mechanics
This expansion spotlights beloved starter Pokémon Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile while introducing powerful legendaries Lugia and Ho-Oh. The update also debuts a groundbreaking feature - Pokémon cards that can attack without requiring energy, opening new strategic possibilities for deck building.
Artwork Controversy
Not all news is celebratory, however. The official Pokémon TCG Pocket Twitter account acknowledged an issue affecting the immersive artwork versions of Ho-Oh EX (3-Star) and Lugia EX (3-Star). These premium cards will temporarily display placeholder images while the team resolves the artwork concerns, which appear related to potential unauthorized reference material rather than outright plagiarism.
While disappointing for eager fans, this represents an unusual stumble for the normally polished franchise. The development team has assured players they're working to resolve the matter promptly.
