Pokémon TCG Pocket's Ruler of the Skies adds Mega Rayquaza flair today
Pokémon TCG Pocket's Ruler of the Skies expansion adds Mega Rayquaza cover and background options on August 2, alongside its summer event missions.
Pokémon TCG Pocket's Ruler of the Skies expansion gets a small but useful follow-up on August 2: new cover and background options built around Mega Rayquaza become available for players who want their collection screen to match the set's sky-high identity. A cosmetic milestone after launch The expansion launched on
July 30 at 01:00 UTC, introducing Mega Rayquaza-ex and new tools for sharing decks with two-dimensional codes. Pokémon's official announcement lists the special covers and backgrounds for Sunday, August 2, making the date a separate in-game milestone rather than a second card release. The summer events are still
running The same announcement places the expansion inside a wider summer schedule. Players can complete event missions for booster packs and useful items, while later August activities add solo battles, promo packs, and wonder-pick opportunities. The exact event windows can change in-game, so the official notice and
the live client are better references than a static fan checklist. For collectors, the August 2 update is a reason to return even after opening the first packs: the new presentation options make Mega Rayquaza part of the profile itself, while the event missions keep the expansion active beyond launch day.
