Pokémon TCG Pocket announces more stuff to buy: Deluxe Pack: ex boosters are coming

Pokémon TCG Pocket is adding another way to make money. I mean, another way for trainers to get ex cards. 

Earlier today, The Pokémon Company revealed a special booster pack coming to the Pocket app. It's called Deluxe Pack: ex, and it's available to trainers for a limited time. You can only get these packs from September 30th to October 30th, so that gives you a month. 

The Deluxe Pack: ex booster packs will have cards released in previous booster packs, going back to the app's launch. This means it'll have cards from Genetic Apex through Wisdom of Sea and Sky. But it's not just regular cards that you may have missed out on: they also have Four-Diamond rarity cards. In fact, one of the four cards is guaranteed to be one (or higher). 

To make the packs even more tantalizing, The Pokémon Company also added that some of the cards will have new illustrations or feature parallel foil designs. 

Pokémon fans: buy, buy, buy! 

Honestly, this feels like yet another reason for Pokémon fans to buy Hourglasses and other items that will allow them to open packs faster - seeing as there is only a month to open these things. That's basically been the theme of most of Pokémon TCG Pocket's events, which appear to be the same ones over and over again in a trance-like pattern. 

Speaking of, here are some upcoming events that coincide with the Deluxe Pack: ex booster packs: 

• Raichu ex Drop Event (6 Oct. at 6 a.m. UTC to 16 Oct. at 5:59 a.m. UTC): Players can take on special solo battles to obtain A series Vol. 13 promo packs
• Bonus Week (12 Oct. at 6 a.m. UTC to 19 Oct. at 5:59 a.m. UTC): During this period, players can tackle Bonus Week missions to obtain pack hourglasses and other rewards
• Wonder Pick Event (13 Oct. at 6 a.m. UTC to 23 Oct. at 5:59 a.m. UTC): Promo cards featuring Shaymin and Absol will be appearing in wonder pick. During this event, there will also be missions that allow players to obtain event shop tickets
• Parallel Foil Cards Mass Outbreak Event (23 Oct. at 6 a.m. UTC to 29 Oct. at 5:59 a.m. UTC): Parallel foil cards will appear in rare picks and bonus picks. Missions that allow players to obtain shop tickets will also be available during this period

I guess $1 billion in 200 days just isn't enough.
