Pokémon TCG Pocket confirms Space-Time Smackdown expansion release date
The space-time continuum is about to be ripped a new one.
No, it’s not a stratospheric new WWE event, it’s the second main set of Pokémon cards in TCG Pocket. Say hello to the Pokémon Pocket Space-Time Smackdown expansion.
We’re done with the A1 sets of booster packs. It’s time for A2 and all its Sinnoh (Diamond and Pearl) Pokémon – including Dialga and Palkia, of course.
Not content with new Pokémon, the game is changing with the Space-Time Smackdown expansion thanks to the introduction of Pokémon Tools. The meta is set to be shaken up all over again.
Still haven’t got all the cards from the original booster packs or Mythical Island? There’s no need to fret. You’ll still be able to open those packs if you choose.

When is the Pokémon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown release date?
The Pokémon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown release date is Thursday 30th January, The Pokémon Company has confirmed!
There's some confusion regarding the release date, as the trailer suggests it is 29th January while every other official source tells us it is the 30th. Given this is just next week, we'll find out soon enough.
The new Dialga and Pialka-themed booster packs contain over 140 new Pokémon cards to collect on your smartphone – we hope you have plenty of Pack Hourglasses saved up to unpack as many as possible ASAP.
On to what cards are included in the A2 Space-Time Smackdown Dialga and Pialka boosters, read on to find out.
