The Pokémon Company has released the newest expansion for Pokémon Pocket TCG, titled Aura Pulsante. This expansion showcases artwork depicting intense training and battles, with Mega Lucario and Mega Sceptile prominently featured in the new card packs. Players can also look forward to discovering powerful new cards, including Mega Lucario ex, Mega Sceptile ex, and Vaporeon ex. Thematically centered on combat, Aura Pulsante also introduces Trainer cards designed to enhance Fighting-type Pokémon in battle.
A significant new feature introduced with Aura Pulsante is a new golden frame system, which will be available in subsequent releases. These golden frames are decorative embellishments for cards of ◆, ◆◆, and ◆◆◆ rarity. Players will automatically receive a golden frame upon collecting 10 duplicates of the same card, with this applying retroactively to cards already owned. Additional golden frames can be obtained by consuming duplicate cards through the ‘Get Ornament’ function, and cards with golden frames can also be traded.
