🔥 TBC × HYPE PACKS PRESENT 🔥

THE AFTERMADS #1

A NEW WEEKEND TRADITION BEGINS

The Breakfast Club proudly presents The AfterMads, a new two-day Pokémon TCG Pocket tournament series supported by Hype Packs.

📣 REGISTRATION IS OPEN NOW.

The event is intentionally scheduled after PocketMads so players can finish the earlier competition, take a short break, and continue their weekend without having to choose between communities.

Our goal is to grow The AfterMads into a recurring weekend series built around competitive play, community growth, and meaningful prizes.

🤝 THE BREAKFAST CLUB × HYPE PACKS

We are proud to welcome Hype Packs as our prize and community partner.

Many players throughout the Pocket community already use and trust Hype Packs for collection-building services, God Pack farming, trading, sharing, Showcase Likes, specialized tools, and more.

This partnership is about more than prizes: TBC players are encouraged to discover Hype Packs, and Hype Packs members are invited to come compete with us.

💥 Two communities. One competitive weekend.
