The latest A4 expansion for Pokemon TCG Pocket has introduced a series of powerful new cards that significantly enhance one of the game's most disruptive strategies: the mill archetype. For players unfamiliar with the term, milling refers to tactics that force opponents to discard or lose cards from their deck, gradually depleting their resources.

The mill strategy aims to limit an opponent's options by systematically removing their available cards, eventually leaving them with nothing to play. While previous versions of Pokemon TCG Pocket lacked sufficient tools for this approach, the A4 expansion changes this with several key additions.

Key Mill Strategy Cards in the A4 Expansion

• Murkrow: This sneaky Pokemon can force the opponent to reveal and shuffle a random card back into their deck after a successful coin flip
• Dark-type Houndoom: A formidable attacker that can discard random cards from the opponent's hand
• Dark Pendant: A powerful Tool card that, when attached to a Dark-type Pokemon, makes the opponent reveal and shuffle a card back into their deck whenever they attack
• Silver Trainer: Allows players to peek at the opponent's hand and return one of their Supporters to the deck

These new additions create exciting synergy possibilities, particularly when combined with existing cards like Persian from the A1 set. For example, a Dark-type Houndoom equipped with Dark Pendant becomes a formidable milling machine - attacking forces the opponent to discard cards, while being attacked triggers the Pendant's effect.
