The Pokémon world is full of surprises, and now it’s clear that Team Rocket will play a big role in the upcoming booster set Destined Rivals. The set, which will be released in May 2025, will feature popular characters and Pokémon from the infamous villain gang, such as Giovanni, Ariana, Petrel, and several other members. This is revealed through the newly published images from the booster packs handed out at Latin America’s gamescom event.
One of the most exciting parts is that we get to see Rocket’s Mewtwo ex and other classic Rocket Pokémon like Koffing, Arbok and Rattata in card form. These cards have been designed with their classic looks from the FireRed & LeafGreen and HeartGold & SoulSilver games.
Destined Rivals – A nostalgia-filled set that could change the game!
The new set is a result of several upcoming Japanese trading card sets, including Heat Wave Arena and The Glory of Team Rocket, and many expect Destined Rivals to be packed with both nostalgia and powerful cards that could change the way the game is played.
For Pokémon collectors and players, this is a great opportunity to get your hands on new and old favorites, while also creating excitement for future sets and any surprises that may come.
So keep your eyes peeled for Destined Rivals, because Team Rocket is back and ready to take over!
