The Pokémon TCG Pocket Space-Time Smackdown booster packs have arrived, promising a meta shakeup. Unlike the Mythical Island release, players must choose between Dialga and Palkia packs.

Determining Pack Contents

The Space-Time Smackdown set offers two distinct packs: one featuring Dialga, the other Palkia. Card variations exist between the packs, similar to the Genetic Apex set. To view the complete card list and pull rates for each pack, hover over the pack and select "Offering Rates" at the bottom left of the screen.

Dialga vs. Palkia: Strategic Considerations

Pack selection depends on your goals. Focus on the pack containing your favorite Pokémon, or prioritize meta-relevant cards for competitive play.

The Verdict

Dialga packs offer more high-power EX cards, making them the stronger competitive option. However, Palkia packs contain powerful Supporter cards suitable for unique strategies. Ultimately, prioritize the pack containing your most sought-after cards. Save Pack Hourglasses and Pack Points to complete your collection.
