Overview

Pocket is great at getting in and getting out while doing impressive burst damage. This build focuses on amplifying those traits by maxing Barrage first.

Early Game

Pocket works a bit differently now than before, we will look to clear the wave with our 2 and Mystic Burst and focus on staying alive until we can afford Majestic Leap as soon as possible
I recommend buying Restorative Shot or Healing Rite if you need to but try and rush Majestic Leap as fast as possible
After Majestic Leap, look to buy Cold Front. This is a classic Pocket item that gives him amazing burst damage and quick jungle clear
An amazing item for pocket is Monster Rounds early and playing to rush Cultist Sacrifice as this item gives us an amazing early game spike and increases our clear speed drastically

Mid Game

In the mid game I recommend saving up for Superior Cooldown and eventually Transcendent Cooldown this will enable our cultist sacrifice to have 100% uptime and drastically buff our Cold Front and Majestic Leap. Pocket's kit has great damage by itself so cooldown is actually the best buy to increase our uptime
Next up I like to buy Majestic Leap and Tankbuster. Majestic Leap is a great item that gives us great mobility for engaging and Tankbusterprovides us with a lot more burst damage.
Enchanter's Emblem and Mystic Expansion are amazing Quality of Life items to round out Pocket's kit, and reach helps consistently hit your ults
Feel free to sell items like Restorative Shot at this point if we need the slots.

Late Game

Diviner's Kevlar, Spirit Burn and Ethereal Shift are our best 6k items for Pocket. Try and think of what you would need in your specific matchups, but none of them are ever bad.
If we have extra gold and no slots upgrading to Arctic Blast or Boundless Spirit can be worthwhile
