Hey PI-Fans,
Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – March 31st
Not only has series protagonist Ash Ketchum (Satoshi to the Japanese purists) taken his victory lap after being an eternally scrappy 10-year old since 1997, the Sword & Shield set for the Pokémon card game which has been with us since before the pandemic in 2020 is finally wrapping up and we’re moving on from Galar!
Spare a thought for your local Pokémon fan – It’s a period of dramatic change for them.
The Pokémon Scarlet & Violet set is the next generation of the Pokémon Trading Card Game and is moving into the new Paldea region. ScarVio, as we’re calling it, sees the return of the classic ‘ex’ mechanic, last seen in the wild back in 2007, as well as a shift to silver borders for the trading cards, an artistic touch that brings the sets more in line with the Japanese print runs. Product will be available on March 31st. We will not be able to honor requests prior to street date.
Here’s a breakdown of the products we expect to be available and on hand on the street date of March 31st.
