Darkness-type cards highlighted in Pokemon TCG Pocket's latest Outbreak event

As you might expect from wild Pokémon, a thrilling Mass Outbreak Event is currently underway in Pokémon TCG Pocket, and this time it's all about embracing the darkness. The Darkness-type Pokémon Mass Outbreak Event, which will run until February 27th, significantly boosts the appearance rate of these shadowy creatures in both rare and bonus picks, making it an excellent opportunity for collectors and players alike.

During the event, completing themed missions could earn you special shop tickets and additional Flair, which can be exchanged throughout the event period. This adds an extra layer of excitement and rewards for your efforts within the game.

Leading the charge in this dark-themed update is Weavile EX, the evolved form of Sneasel, known for its ability to deal increased damage to an opponent's already injured Active Pokémon. Alongside Weavile EX, Darkrai will also make appearances in rare picks, bringing its powerful Dark Void attack that can put your opponent's Active Pokémon to sleep. For those looking to complete their Pokédex, Murkrow will be available in Bonus Picks, adding another Darkness-type contender to your collection.
