Fresh Leak Unveils Pokémon TCG Pocket ‘Rising Hope’ Set

I recently came across some exciting news for Pokémon fans. A brand-new set for Pokémon TCG Pocket is on the way, and it’s called ‘Rising Hope’. This set is set to launch on April 30th, and it’s bringing some powerful cards to the game.

The leak comes from a post by@SteeloAndKri on X, where they shared details about what we can expect. Two major cards will be featured in this set—Solgaleo ex and Lunala ex. These are legendary Pokémon from the Alola region, first introduced in the ‘Pokémon Sun’ and ‘Pokémon Moon’ games back in 2016.

Solgaleo is a steel-psychic type, often seen as a symbol of the sun, while Lunala, a psychic-ghost type, represents the moon. Both are known for their stunning designs and strong abilities, which makes their addition to Pokémon TCG Pocket a big deal.

For those who might not know, Pokémon TCG Pocket is a mobile app that lets players collect and battle with digital Pokémon cards. It’s a modern take on the classic Pokémon Trading Card Game, which has been around since 1996. The app has been gaining popularity since its release, offering a mix of nostalgia and new features for players. With ‘Rising Hope’, the game seems to be bringing even more excitement to the mix.

The image shared in the leak shows Solgaleo ex and Lunala ex cards displayed on a phone screen, with vibrant artwork that really stands out. Both cards have 180 HP, which is impressive and suggests they’ll be tough to beat in battles. The background of the image has bold Japanese text that translates to ‘Pokémon New Pack Coming Soon’, confirming that this set is just around the corner.

Solgaleo and Lunala have always been fan favorites, not just in the games but also in other Pokémon media. They played major roles in the animated series ‘Pokémon the Series Sun & Moon’, which aired from 2016 to 2019. In the show, these Pokémon were central to the story, often tied to the adventures of Ash Ketchum and his friends in the Alola region. Their unique powers and majestic appearances made them memorable, so seeing them in Pokémon TCG Pocket feels like a perfect fit.

I think this new set will bring a lot of fun to the game. Players will likely enjoy building decks around Solgaleo ex and Lunala ex, especially since their high HP and likely strong attacks could make them key cards in matches. If you’re into Pokémon TCG Pocket, mark your calendar for April 30th—you won’t want to miss ‘Rising Hope’.
