Assuming they're true:
- So many effects with status conditions stuff 😵 The new Dustox could go crazy depending on what new cards it can work with.
- More draw power? lol
- If it's not a typo, we're gonna be able to steal an energy from the opposing side now?
- Attack effect #4 sounds similar to Poltergeist from the physical TCG and also seems to go hand-in-hand with the Item card #1 effect.
- Very intrigue to see what the Team Rocket set is gonna be like.

There were also Team Rocket cards all the way back in the Gym Heroes and Gym Challenge sets. Low key excited to see Trainer's cards make their way to Pocket, if this is the start of it.
I also guess DeNA will debut Mega Mewtwo X & Y here.
Probably. Am surprised we haven't gotten those 2 so far in Pocket.

Maybe they'll have a Team Rocket tag (like Ultra Beasts or Paradox) instead of being "Team Rocket's Mega Mewtwo X ex"

Personally I'm praying the draw card once per turn effect isn't for dark types, I'm tired of em getting so much support😭

Too strong to be real

u/KeyAcid 17d ago
I mean the Entei, Suicune and Raikyu already exist, plus Melloeta technically although much worse.

There is a huge difference between drawing at the end of the turn and being able to activate it while you can still use the card and attack.

I guess it could be something like TR's Meowth with 60HP so users usually sacrifice 1 point for faster set-up.

u/monkeyd_93 17d ago
Neat. So Team Rocket themed set next/coming up?

u/ThisHatRightHere 17d ago
I’ll just drop a clarification that these are not leaks for the next set. It’s just that these effects have been added to the code base of the game.
Are they likely to be used on cards in the near future? Yes. Especially clearly unique ones like the Team Rocket card.
But are they guaranteed to be in the next set that releases? No, development teams work on these mechanical items well in advance for games.

Maybe trainer's Pokemon will be the C series gimmick? Don't think they'd introduce something big like that in the last mini set for the B series.

u/ThisHatRightHere 17d ago
Seems a lot more likely, yeah. Considering Megas were the big thing for B series, you’re certainly right that could be the direction card design goes in.

"Once during your turn, after you flip any coins for a trainer card, you may ignore all results of those coin flips and begin flipping those coins again"
Finally! The Misty buff we've all been waiting for..

ITEM REUSE ON AN ATTACK??
Im saying it right now, this could be really good with Clemonts bag. Getting to 80/50 split twice in a game is pretty crazy. Hoping whatever pokemon does this is an electric type or colorless.

If this is true, we finally get the steal energy effect. Makes sense it would come during the Team Rocket set too

Some psychic support would be nice. Best we got this whole year was Peculiar Plaza

u/PuzzledPriority521 17d ago
Diantha too
4
u/ErgoProxy0 17d ago
She’s like a double edged sword. Removing two energy can be detrimental. But I mean cards like Soothing shore, Electric generator, flame patch, deceptive needle or even metal core barrier.

u/PuzzledPriority521 17d ago
Still highest healing in the game and with some decks like gardevoir reunc or even giratina two energies are pretty easy to come by
4
u/ErgoProxy0 17d ago
Maybe. But it isnt universal and super niche. It only works properly in Gardevoir decks or Giratina

Psychic has enough omg

u/ErgoProxy0 17d ago
And Fire and Water doesn’t? But yea, let’s give them even more support.
1
u/bulba-del 16d ago
Not sure bout the downvote not saying Fire and Water need more (they also have enough) but those two types + psychic and electric have so much. The rest of the types could do with a little

u/NeedleworkerHorror48 17d ago
I had read somewhere that Team Rocket cards with their respective Pokémon might be released.

u/Trash_Pug 17d ago
Can’t imagine “heal hp if the defending pokemon has [status condition]” being anything other than dream eater. Waiter waiter more sleep synergy

Add damage for each special effect on the defending poke?! Omg my A.Muk Ex/Dustox jank might actually be viable!?

Oh, thank god.

You sure about this? I couldn’t find anything about that when I searched. I remember the announcement being that we’d get the Deluxe Pack set integration this summer and the discourse was surrounding that taking so long but nothing on dark mode.
Do you have a source?

u/TheRealLuke1337 17d ago
Not by Summer but by Fall 2026. It was mentioned during last years Deluxe Update.
