The Pokémon Trading Card Game is buzzing with excitement as it prepares to launch its latest expansion: Prismatic Evolutions. This set celebrates the beloved evolution mechanics and highlights iconic Pokémon, including the fan-favorite Eevee and its various evolutions. Let’s explore everything you need to know about this vibrant new set, including the featured Pokémon, product lineup, MSRP, and release dates.

Yet Another Premium collection has been revealed for October 20th but this one takes the cake. 

The box will come with a Full art ex card and, for the first time ever, a magnetic display case to keep the card protected. As more collectors enter the hobby the demand to keep cards safe is also rising. This is an excellent move on Pokémon's part to encourage young trainers to keep their valuables safe. The box will be released Friday October 20th and sells for $40.00!

The haunting continues for the second year running as the very popular BOOster packs make a return. For Halloween instead of giving out candy, Pokémon has created a fun new alternative. Instead you can give out mini 3 card packs with some of the most popular ghost type Pokémon. 

Starting in March when Scarlet and Violet is released, all new art rare cards will become available! Whole evolutions will tell a story such as the Gardevoir line.

These cards will be denoted with AR (art rare) and SAR (super art rare). Here is a closer look at some of the most anticipated cards for 2023’s Scarlet and Violet.

Pokémon is releasing the next in a series of products called Knock Out Collections. This $10.00 dollar box is perfect for new trainers looking for a boost in their collection.

The full list of contents include: 

• 1 foil card featuring Galarian Slowking
• 1 foil card featuring Galarian Obstagoon
• 1 foil card featuring Dragapult
• 2 sticker sheets
• 2 Pokémon TCG booster packs
• A code card for Pokémon TCG Live

As we get closer to the release of Crown Zenith this year we will begin to uncover more details about the cards and products that are being released. Each legendary bird has appeared more than a few times in the Sword and Shield era. Now they appear one more time as full art Promo cards for the Crown Zenith Tins. 

 

This expansion will come with a new group of V boxes and Premium Collections. Regieleki and Regidrago are featured on V boxes. There is also a  Special Collection featuring Pikachu V and VMAX and the Morpeko V-UNION Playmat Collection.

The current Pokémon TCG competitive pool is getting rotated once again. But this time there will be some unexpected changes. This time legality is being determined by a regulation mark. On the bottom left corner of most modern cards there is a letter in a white box. This letter determines if a card is usable. Currently,  the letters D, E, and F are all legal. Starting March 30th, any card denoted with a D will be removed.

Any set released after March 30th will also be legal 2 weeks after the release date.

 

STAR Universe is out now and fully available at Nexgen! We have the second wave of the long awaited Japanese set for $9.99 a pack and $94.99 for a box.

The breakdown: 37 Art Rares, 25 Special Art Rares, 24 Secret Rares, and 4 Ultra Rares.

You can buy all your VSTAR Universe cards in store now and pre-order any Crown Zenith product to make sure you have access to all the exciting content from the Sword and Shield finale.  

One of the first Scarlet and Violet ex products has been revealed and is available for pre-order now! The Mimikyu ex promo box will release on March 3rd in stores and orders will be shipped out that Friday. The box will feature Mimikyu ex with a new sparkling gray border. You can grab one box for $18.99.

The Japanese version of Pokémon cards are widely considered to be more appealing. The reverse side is more colorful, the borders compliment the art, and the textures make rare cards more vibrant. Finally, starting 2023 with the release of Scarlet and Violet, English sets are getting a huge makeover!
