Pokémon TCG Pocket B3a—Release Date, Start Time & New Content

The Pokémon franchise continues to go all-out in its 30th anniversary year, and while fans continue to wait for big releases on the horizon, a fresh set, B3a, is coming to Pokémon TCG Pocket imminently.

Pokémon TCG Pocket has settled into a regular rhythm of new sets on a monthly basis, usually falling towards the end of the month, and as we enter the final few weeks of May, a fresh reveal is taking place.

For all the details on the Pokémon TCG Pocket B3a set, Insider Gaming has you covered.

Pokémon TCG Pocket B3a Release Date

The release date for the B3a set in Pokémon TCG Pocket is set to be announced today, but it’s expected to launch next week.

New sets in Pokémon TCG Pocket release monthly, on average, and Wednesday is usually the drop date. As such, the B3a set is expected to be released on Wednesday, May 27.

However, there are some exceptions, and the last set, Pulsing Aura, was released on a Monday. Therefore, we can’t be too exact on the release date, but we’ll update this article as soon as we have confirmation.

Pokémon TCG Pocket B3a Start Times

6 PM PDT is the standard release time for sets in Pokémon TCG Pocket, which is expected to remain the same for the B3a set.

Of course, as mentioned above, the release date isn’t officially confirmed yet, but while those dates have changed, the release times have been fixed.

Pokémon TCG Pocket B3a Confirmed Card List

No cards have been confirmed for the Pokémon TCG Pocket B3a set so far, but the teaser confirming the time of the official reveal has indicated the big players.

The teaser trailer shows two eyes travelling across the screen, with a red and blue color respectively, and the text for the reveal time, 1 PM UTC, has prehistoric and futuristic vibes.

As such, it’s expected that the B3a set will be headlined by Koraidon and Miraidon, the legendary duo from Generation 9, which will also likely come alongside Paradox Pokémon from the Scarlet and Violet games.

A new raid mechanic has also been leaked for TCG Pocket, but it remains to be seen whether it will arrive alongside the B3a set, as the next main set, or even the move to the C-sets, would make more sense.
