Pokemon TCG Leak Reveals High Class Pack EX Set

by

Details about the next small set for *Pokemon TCG Pocket* have surfaced, hinting at its name and a different way cards will be released. Many players think the ‘A4b’ set will be the last in the ‘A-series,’ and this leak seems to support that idea.

Fans of the *Pokemon TCG Pocket* sets have often seen information appear online a few days before release. Interestingly, these leaks usually happen when official *Pokemon* accounts accidentally post things too early, not through unofficial sources. The latest leak for the upcoming A4b set seems to be happening the same way, but this time, the information suggests something new: if true, this miniset will be a first for the series.

Pokemon TCG’s Next Set May Let Players Catch Up on Missed Cards

The official Japanese Pokémon TCG account accidentally posted the full trailer for the upcoming A4b set ahead of schedule. The post, which has since been removed, announced a release date of September 30th and suggested the set will be called “High Class Pack EX” – although the English name may be different. Unlike typical sets, this expansion won’t include new cards. Instead, it will re-release cards from the A-series with potentially updated artwork, possibly to help players collect all the cards before the B-series is released.

A key detail from the leaked set is that booster packs will have fewer cards – only four instead of the usual five. However, each pack is guaranteed to include a rare EX or four-diamond card, which is likely why it’s called the High Class Pack EX. This is a bit unusual, considering DeNA recently made booster packs larger, increasing them to six cards in *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, and now they’re going back to four.

News of the potential A4b card set has sparked discussion about how competitive play in *Pokemon TCG Pocket* will change. Some players have long thought that older A-series cards would no longer be usable in competitive modes once the new B-series cards are released. The recently rumored High Class Pack EX set seems to support this idea, with many believing that the developers want players to finish collecting A-series cards before they’re removed from ranked and other competitive play.

Some players believe it’s too soon to remove older cards from *Pokemon TCG Pocket*. They compare it to the physical *Pokemon TCG*, where cards are usually retired after a few years. It’s unknown if the upcoming A4b set is intended to prepare for a rotation of cards, but it will likely give players another chance to complete their collections.
