The fiery new expansion Crimson Blaze (B1a) is set to ignite Pokémon TCG Pocket on December 17, 2025. This themed booster pack focuses on the beloved Kanto starter Pokémon—Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle—and their powerful Mega Evolution Pokémon ex forms.

Leading the set is Mega Charizard Y ex, joined by Mega Venusaur ex and Mega Blastoise ex, marking the first time since Genetic Apex that Venusaur and Blastoise have received ex cards in Pocket.
For fans of the original Gen 1 games, this expansion is a nostalgic yet competitive addition to the Pocket lineup.
