Celestial Guardians countdown, release time and date in Pokémon TCG Pocket

The next big Pokémon TCG Pocket expansion is fast approaching with Pokémon from the Alola region ready to shake up the competitive meta and give casual trainers more cards to add to their collections, including the game's first trainer immersive rare. Celestial Guardians is the third major expansion in the game, following Genetic Apex and Space-Time Smackdown, and comes after the release of two smaller sets that have been pretty groundbreaking to the competitive scene themselves. With this set, though, trainers are going to be able to get cards like Rare Candy and other new strategies that'll likely give older decks a chance to shine again in ranked play. If you want to know exactly when this set is launching, though, we have you covered!
