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, Paradox Drive 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 has revealed the next set will be Paradox Drive.
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 Paradox Drive B3a set in Pokémon TCG Pocket is Wednesday, May 27.
New sets in Pokémon TCG Pocket release monthly, on average, and Wednesday is usually the drop date. May 27 was the expected release date for the B3a set, and it has now been confirmed to be the case.
This shouldn’t be too much of a surprise, given that the final Wednesday of a month has become a standard launch date for new sets in TCG Pocket, but it’s not always the case, with Pulsing Aura releasing on a Monday.
