What Is the Pokémon TCG Team Rocket Tin?

The Team Rocket Tin is a special Pokémon TCG product designed around Team Rocket and its Pokémon. It launched on September 5, 2025 and is available in three versions.

Each version features a different Team Rocket Pokémon ex as its promotional card:

• Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex
• Team Rocket’s Nidoking ex
• Team Rocket’s Persian ex

Alongside the promo card, each tin contains four Pokémon TCG booster packs and a code card for Pokémon TCG Live.

The product combines sealed Pokémon TCG packs with a collectible metal tin, making it suitable for both card collectors and fans of Team Rocket.

What Comes in a Team Rocket Tin?

The official Pokémon product listing confirms three main contents inside the Team Rocket Tin.

1 Team Rocket Pokémon ex Promo Card

Each tin contains one foil promo card featuring one of three Team Rocket Pokémon:

• Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex
• Team Rocket’s Nidoking ex
• Team Rocket’s Persian ex

The exact promo card depends on the version of the tin you purchase.

4 Pokémon TCG Booster Packs

Each Team Rocket Tin contains four Pokémon TCG booster packs. These provide the main pack-opening experience and give collectors an opportunity to discover additional Pokémon and Trainer cards.

The specific expansion contained in the tin can depend on the product configuration and market, so it is worth checking the packaging or retailer listing before purchasing.

Pokémon TCG Live Code Card

The tin also includes a code card that can be redeemed in Pokémon TCG Live, allowing collectors to take part in the digital version of the Pokémon TCG.

The Three Team Rocket Tin Versions

One of the most interesting aspects of the product is the choice between three different promotional Pokémon.

Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex Tin

Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex is closely associated with Giovanni and Team Rocket’s pursuit of power. The Pokémon has also received its own dedicated Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex Box and League Battle Deck, making it a major part of the Team Rocket theme in the modern Pokémon TCG.

The Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex Tin is a natural choice for collectors who enjoy Mewtwo or want a Team Rocket-themed Mewtwo card.

Team Rocket’s Nidoking ex Tin

The second version features Team Rocket’s Nidoking ex.

Nidoking is one of the classic Pokémon associated with the original Pokémon era, so its Team Rocket version gives collectors an opportunity to combine a familiar Pokémon with the Team Rocket theme.

For collectors who enjoy Poison- and Ground-type Pokémon, this version adds another interesting option to the tin lineup.

Team Rocket’s Persian ex Tin

The third version features Team Rocket’s Persian ex.

Persian has a particularly strong connection to Team Rocket through Giovanni, making it a natural Pokémon for a Team Rocket-themed product.

Collectors who enjoy Giovanni’s Pokémon or classic Team Rocket references may find the Persian version especially appealing.

Why Is the Team Rocket Tin Popular?

Team Rocket has been part of the Pokémon world since the earliest games, anime episodes, and trading cards. The organization has also returned as a major theme in modern Pokémon TCG products.

The Team Rocket Tin brings that theme into a compact collectible product while featuring three different Pokémon ex options.

The product can appeal to collectors who enjoy:

• Team Rocket-themed Pokémon cards
• Mewtwo
• Nidoking
• Persian
• Giovanni
• Pokémon ex cards
• Sealed Pokémon TCG products
• Collectible tins

The Team Rocket theme also connects with the Scarlet & Violet—Destined Rivals expansion, which prominently features Team Rocket and its Pokémon.

What Can You Pull From the Booster Packs?

The four booster packs inside the Team Rocket Tin give collectors the opportunity to discover additional Pokémon and Trainer cards.

Modern Pokémon TCG booster packs contain 10 game cards, consisting of four commons, three uncommons, and three foil cards, with at least one foil card being rare or higher. Each pack also includes an Energy card and a Pokémon TCG Live code card.

However, the contents of individual packs are random. Pokémon states that a particular Pokémon or card type cannot be guaranteed in a specific booster pack.

Depending on the expansion inside the tin, possible pulls can include:

• Pokémon ex
• Pokémon
• Trainer cards
• Illustration Rare cards
• Ultra Rare cards
• Special Illustration Rare cards
• Secret Rare cards
• Holofoil cards

The exact possibilities depend on the booster packs included.

Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex and the Team Rocket Strategy

Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex has also been featured in official Pokémon TCG strategy content.

Pokémon describes its Power Saver Ability as preventing Mewtwo ex from attacking until at least four Team Rocket Pokémon are in play. Its Erasure Ball attack can deal up to 280 damage, although using the attack requires discarding two Energy from your Benched Pokémon.

This creates a strong connection between the Team Rocket theme and a strategy built around filling the Bench with Team Rocket Pokémon.

The Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex League Battle Deck later developed this theme into a ready-to-play 60-card deck.
