A recent leak suggests that Pokemon TCG Pocket's upcoming A4 expansion will be based on Gold and Silver, meaning the set might revolve around Gen 2 creatures. However, this doesn't appear to be the only leak about the upcoming Pokemon TCG Pocket set, as the original leaker also shared predictions about A4's follow-up mini-sets.
Fans have already speculated that Pokemon TCG Pocket's next set is arriving on July 30. This was later supported by the announcement of a major update to the Trade feature planned to go live on July 29. Now, ahead of Pokemon Presents, which is expected to reveal the A4's teaser trailer, a potential leak is proposing some interesting theories about the anticipated set.

Pokemon TCG Pocket leaks paint a clear picture for the next set's release date and content, even if the theme remains unknown.
Posts 7Initially revealed by a leaker known as CranAYO, some potentially datamined shop accessories suggest that A4 could be a Pokemon Gold and Silver Gen 2 set. According to the same findings, the leaker also claims that A4a, the first mini-set of the fourth expansion, will feature baby Pokemon like Pichu. Additionally, and perhaps even more notably, the mini-set after that is speculated to introduce Mega Evolutions to Pokemon TCG Pocket.
Pokemon TCG Pocket's Potential A4, A4a, and A4b Leaks
The A4 expansion will be themed around Pokemon Gold and Silver. The A4 set will feature Gen 2 Pokemon. A4a will introduce baby Pokemon like Pichu. A4b will add Mega Evolutions to the game. A4a will be released in September. A4b will be released in October.Mega Evolutions were expected to come to Pokemon TCG Pocket, and it would make sense for the game to introduce them in October, around the same time Pokemon Legends: Z-A launches. As for the rest of the leak, fans seem divided over its legitimacy. Some skeptics argue it wouldn't make sense for Pokemon TCG Pocket to introduce the long-awaited Mega Evolutions in a Gen 2 mini-set rather than a Kalos-themed one. Others believe that even if the datamined information is accurate, it isn't enough to predict the particulars of all three upcoming sets.
CloseOne thing to note, however, is that Pokemon TCG Pocket's Extradimensional Crisis set has already shown that major cards can be introduced through a mini-set. For those unfamiliar, it added Ultra Beasts to the game, which was a significant move. So, it's not all that unlikely for DeNA's digital trading card game to present Mega Evolutions in a similar fashion.
That said, all these leaks and speculations should be taken with a grain of salt, as there's no solid evidence to support them. Fortunately, the A4 set will soon be officially revealed, which should put most of these rumors to rest. Those looking to learn more about the upcoming Pokemon TCG Pocket set should definitely mark July 22 on their calendars, as its trailer will likely be shown during tomorrow's Pokemon Presents.
