Pokémon TCG Pocket Triumphant Light Expansion Guide

Mar 16,2025 Author: Christian

The Pokémon TCG landscape has been significantly altered by the arrival of the Triumphant Light expansion. This set introduces 96 new cards, shaking up the meta and creating exciting new possibilities. The expansion features a new booster pack and the highly anticipated mythical Pokémon, Arceus, along with a game-changing new battle mechanic: Link Abilities.

Arceus and its Link Abilities have revolutionized gameplay. These abilities allow Pokémon to unleash combined effects when paired with Arceus or Arceus EX, leading to dynamic and strategic battles.

Arceus EX

The star of Triumphant Light, Arceus EX, boasts a four-diamond rarity. Its Fabled Lustre ability grants immunity to special conditions, while its Ultimate Force attack deals 70 damage plus additional damage for each benched Pokémon. Here's a breakdown of its stats:

  • Rarity: Four-Diamond, 2-Star, 3-Star, Crown
  • HP: 140
  • Attack (Ultimate Force): 70 (plus additional damage)
  • Energy Cost: Three Colorless
  • Retreat Cost: 2
  • Weakness: Fighting
  • Ability: Fabled Lustre

Arceus also enhances its allies through various Link Abilities: Power Link, Resilience Link, Vigor Link, Speed Link, and Cunning Link. These links create powerful combinations and encourage diverse playstyles.

Other Notable Cards

Beyond Arceus EX, several other cards are making waves: Leafeon EX (with Solar Beam and Forest Breath), Carnivine (with Power Link and Vine Whip), Glaceon EX (with Snow Terrain and Freezing Wind), Crobat (with Darkness Fang and Cunning Link), and Probopass (with a robust 90 HP).

Top Decks

The evolving meta has spawned several strong deck archetypes in Triumphant Light:

  1. Arceus EX & Dialga EX
  2. Arceus EX & Carnivine
  3. Arceus EX & Darkrai EX
  4. Darkrai EX & Staraptor
  5. Leafeon EX & Celebi EX
  6. Arceus EX & Crobat
  7. Infernape EX & Arceus EX

Featured Cards

Triumphant Light adds 75 base set cards and 21 rare cards, totaling 96 cards, including several rare and one hyper-rare card. Key Trainer and Supporter cards such as Adaman, Irida, Barry, and the Celestic Town Elder are also introduced. Adaman and Irida are particularly impactful, with Irida healing 40 damage and Adaman mitigating damage against Metal-type Pokémon.

Conclusion

While smaller than sets like Genetic Apex or Space-Time Smackdown, Triumphant Light packs a powerful punch. Securing the best cards might require some luck (and perhaps a healthy budget). The introduction of Link Abilities has undeniably reshaped the strategic landscape, creating a dynamic and exciting environment for players, both new and experienced. Now is the perfect time to join the action!
