The Pokémon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown expansion introduces two distinct booster packs: Dialga and Palkia. This guide helps you decide which to prioritize.
Understanding the Pack Differences
The Space-Time Smackdown set contains 207 cards, with some exclusive to either the Dialga or Palkia packs. To determine the contents of each, locate the booster pack selection screen. Hover over the desired pack and select "Offering Rates" to view the complete card list and pull probabilities.
Dialga Pack Highlights
The Dialga pack boasts several powerful EX cards, including Dialga EX, Yanmega EX, Gallade EX, and Darkrai EX. These make it attractive for players building competitive decks around these specific Pokémon. Additionally, exclusive Trainer cards like Dawn and Volkner, and the sought-after Bidoof, are only found in Dialga packs.
Palkia Pack Highlights
While containing fewer high-profile EX cards than Dialga, the Palkia pack offers Lickilicky EX, Weavile EX, and Mismagius EX. This could be advantageous for players seeking to craft unique, less conventional decks. Exclusive Trainer cards Mars and Cynthia are also key draws for this pack.
Which Pack Should You Choose?
The Dialga pack generally presents a more competitive edge due to its powerful EX cards. However, the Palkia pack offers unique strategic possibilities and desirable Trainer cards. The best approach is to prioritize the pack containing your most coveted cards, be they EX Pokémon or specific Trainers. Save your Pack Hourglasses and Pack Points to complete your collection afterward.
