The Pokémon Trading Card Game is set to expand once again with the highly anticipated Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together set, launching worldwide on March 28, 2025. This new set brings back the beloved Trainer’s Pokémon card type, which was first introduced in the Gym Heroes expansion. These cards feature iconic Pokémon paired with their well-known Trainers, adding a unique twist to battles with distinct strategies and abilities.
In addition to the return of Trainer’s Pokémon, the expansion will introduce 16 new Pokémon ex, along with ultra-rare artwork and hyper-rare gold-etched cards. These new additions are expected to enhance the excitement for collectors and players alike, and they will likely be available in both the physical TCG and digital platforms such as Pokémon TCG Live. Although there's no official word yet on the inclusion of these cards in Pokémon TCG Pocket, fans should keep an eye out for any updates related to this expansion.
Trainer’s Pokémon Return with New Battle Strategies
A standout feature of Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together is the reintroduction of Trainer’s Pokémon cards. These cards not only showcase famous Pokémon with their Trainers but also offer powerful synergies in battle. Some of the most eagerly awaited Trainer’s Pokémon include:
- N’s Zoroark ex
- Lillie’s Clefairy ex
- Iono’s Bellibolt ex
- Hop’s Zacian ex
This expansion is part of Pokémon's ongoing efforts to engage a broader audience and enhance inclusivity within the TCG community. By offering the game in Latin American Spanish, more players will have the opportunity to enjoy the full experience in their native language, whether in casual matches or competitive tournaments. This move also paves the way for expanded local events and a stronger presence in Latin American Pokémon communities.
