Pokémon TCG Pocket's Mythical Island Expansion Shakes Up Competitive Meta

The new set introduces 86 cards, including powerful combos like Celebi ex and Serperior, while players report server issues due to high demand.

The Mythical Island expansion adds 86 new cards, featuring 68 standard cards and 18 rare versions, including standout Pokémon like Celebi ex, Mew ex, and Serperior.
Celebi ex, paired with Serperior's Jungle Totem ability, is emerging as a dominant meta deck due to its high damage potential, though counters like Jynx and Aerodactyl ex are being explored.
Psychic decks gain significant power with Mew ex, which can mimic opponent attacks without energy discard, making it a versatile addition to many strategies.
The expansion has introduced new single-player missions, themed collections, and rewards, offering players fresh objectives and customization options.
Server instability has been reported as millions of players attempt to access the game following the expansion's release, with developers working to resolve the issues.
