Dual-type cards, as the name suggests, give Pok\u00e9mon two types rather than one and open up new strategies for play. For example, Mega Mewtwo X ex is a dual Psychic and Fighting-type card. While dual-type cards have been around for a while in the physical card game, Dual Fusion finally brings them to the mobile counterpart. The dual-type cards all come with some incredible illustrations as well, which you can check out below.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate the game&#8217;s second anniversary, a new event will run from Dual Fusion&#8217;s release until Dec. 14. During the campaign, players will be gifted a ticket that can be exchanged for a booster pack guaranteed to include a two-star card. Later, starting on Dec. 15, players can rent six Dual Fusion decks to test the new cards.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"pikachu-and-first-partners-events-coming-to-pok-eacute-mon-tcg-pocket\">\n                        Pikachu and First Partners events coming to Pok\u00e9mon TCG Pocket<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>In addition to Dual Fusion&#8217;s release,<em> Pok\u00e9mon TCG Pocket <\/em>also has a couple of special events coming soon that will bring some beautiful cards to the game.
