Pokemon TCG Pocket just rolled out this new thing called the Wisdom of Sea and Sky expansion. And yeah, it’s already tangled in some mess because they used fan art without asking. Classic mishap, right? Anyway, forget the drama—let’s talk about Set A4. It’s packed with fresh cards that are getting players all excited to build some serious decks.
So, there’s this new top-tier deck that’s all about Umbreon Ex, and you won’t believe how it pairs up with Genetic Apex’s Greninja. Picture this: it can hit any opponent’s Pokemon, even those hanging out on the bench. Crazy stuff. Everyone is talking about it—like the ultimate combo since this set dropped. It’s already shaking up the competitive scene big time.
Oh, and about those booster packs… Typically, when a main set lands, you get maybe two or three booster pack options. Genetic Apex surprised everyone with three, but Wisdom of Sea and Sky kept it old school with just two. There’s a pack for Ho-Oh and another for Lugia. Honestly, though, the Ho-Oh pack is where all the hype is. Way more impressive than its counterpart.
Now, splitting sets into multiple booster packs isn’t unheard of. It’s like how the video games have critters you can only find in certain versions. Wisdom of Sea and Sky does this with its Ho-Oh pack, loaded with killer Ex cards perfect for serious play. Lugia’s pack? Eh, mostly has Lugia Ex and Espeon Ex—plus some cards that are, well, kinda meh.
Sure, the Lugia pack throws in Pichu, which is fresh and meshes nicely with Lugia Ex and Eevee Grove’s Dragonite Ex. Great if you’re into current meta decks. And hey, it has Elemental Switch—super popular right now—and a new card called Lyra, just begging for creative deck builders to take a crack at.
But you know, the Ho-Oh pack brings the heat. It’s got Crobat Ex, Umbreon Ex, Donphan Ex, Ho-Oh Ex, and Skarmory Ex. These cards totally outshine the competition. Just thinking about the strategy options gives me shivers—a good kind of shivers, though.
Plus, the Ho-Oh pack throws in some wild cards like Magby, Hitmontop, Zubat, and a few others. They’re all rocking the meta scene. Magby’s already in those Lugia-Ex-Ho-Oh-Ex deck combos, Hitmontop is a powerhouse, and don’t get me started on the synergy with Silver and Darkness decks. It’s like the Lugia pack just can’t compete.
In the end, if you’re diving into this latest Pokemon TCG Pocket release, seriously consider snagging the Ho-Oh pack. Competitive edge and all that jazz, you know? It’s just worlds apart from what Lugia has to offer.
