Notable Cards in Mythical Island
Mythical Island is set to introduce over 80 new cards to *Pokemon TCG Pocket*, including the highly anticipated Mew Ex. While the base Mew card, available as a secret mission reward, is considered underwhelming in the current meta, Mew Ex promises to be a game-changer.
