Pokemon TCG Pocketplayers are loving the new Houndoom cards added to the game. They’re part of Triumphant Light, the newestPokemon TCG Pocketupdate that has brought dozens of new cards for players to add to their collections.
Triumphant Light is the third major update withnew cards forPokemon TCG Pocketplayers, following the release of the Space-Time Smackdown expansion and the Mythical Island mini-set. While Mythical Island was themed around Mew, this second mini-set focuses on Arceus, who appears as an ex card. Triumphant Light also works as a continuation of Space-Time Smackdown, because while the cards in the previous set focus on Pokemon from Sinnoh, this one features some characters from Hisui, the region Sinnoh was known as during its discovery. However, one card has been attracting the attention ofPokemon TCG Pocketplayers, but it dates back to before Gen 4.
