When Does Space-Time Smackdown Come Out in Pokémon TCG Pocket?
Space-Time Smackdown arrives in Pokémon TCG Pocket on January 30th at 1:00 AM Eastern Time. While initial announcements suggested January 29th, the official Pokémon website and X account confirm the 30th, likely to account for various time zones.
How Many Booster Packs Are There?
Unlike Genetic Apex with its three booster packs (Charizard, Mewtwo, and Pikachu), Space-Time Smackdown features two booster packs, themed around Palkia and Dialga. As you might expect from these Pokémon, the set heavily focuses on Gen 4 (Diamond and Pearl), though cards from other generations will also be included.
