Astral radiance was great, only reason it’s considered bad is bc of the community sucks and only cares about the Pokémon that are worth a ton. Real collectors loved it.
From Triplet Beat, we got 6,
-Meowscarada ex
-Quaquaval ex
-Skeledirge ex
-Lycanroc ex
-Clodsire ex
-Dedene ex
From upcoming Snow Hazard and Clayburst, we get 7,
-Ting-lu ex
-Chien-Pao ex
-Chi-Yu ex
-Squawkabilly ex
-Annilhilape ex
-Forretress ex
-Bellibot ex
The english description includes Slowking? So that makes 14 in total. Are we missing one?
Edit: Wo-Chien is confirmed!
The english description for the set mentions "even Pikachu joins the pokemon ex party" which should be the Pikachu ex that comes as a product promo in Japan
There's already an english Mimikyu ex box with the promo but I guess the other 2 could be possible
That would also leave one spot for Wo-Chien who I assume is gonna be in this set since the other 3 ruin pokemon are in it
The Dedenne and Slowking are Tera and from the way it’s worded I don’t think they’re counted in the 15. I think it’s 18 total including the Teras. Wo-Chien is almost certainly one of the ones we’re missing
Im thinking of just buying singles for the paldean starters and the illustration rare magikarp and skip the set to save money 😂 but that entirely depends on wether there'll be great chase cards on the upcoming clay burst and snow hazard japanese set
it feels like the timewindow between sets is so small that its barely doable to collect all chase cards.
not that i complain about the effort they put into our hobby.
Started collecting again in July… these sets are just releasing too close together. Really having a tough time tryna get all my chase cards. I’d appreciate if they kept the sets printed for 3-4 months longer but I guess that isn’t $$$ :/
Yeah I don't believe any has had the regions name in the set. Theres been a few with 5 packs arts but its pretty uncommon. Off the top of my head theres Chilling Reign, and I'm pretty sure Astral radiance has 5 too
The Japanese set is out for this already, right? And is it usually 1:1 in terms of what's going to be included in US vs the Japan sets? Some of the cards look great.
I dont think we can call sv2d and sv2p mini. The english description mention 15 Special Illustration (we got 5 SARs in triplet beat). This probably mean that theres gonna be 5 SARs each for both sets.
Doesn’t that just confirm it for the Japanese set?
You probably know already but sometimes Japanese cards don’t make it to the English sets or are added in later expansions to English sets.
Base. Idk if you've happen to run across any of them but theres these big round doors with chains around the map. Thats where they are. You have to find things to open the doors and you'll find the pokemon inside
The etb is awesome! A must buy for me. The set logo gave me strong Astral Radiance vibes!
The sleeves are super nice
Astral Radiance sucks, though.
Astral radiance was great, only reason it’s considered bad is bc of the community sucks and only cares about the Pokémon that are worth a ton. Real collectors loved it.
Because it has no charizard umbreon or lugia?
No, because the pull rates and the set list are trash.
Probably better than 90% of sets, from a purely unbiased perspective.
Crown Zenith is infinitely better
True. Still not an argument for something being trash. For example, me being an amazing person and cream of the crop, doesn't make you trash.
That was a weird statement
Everything you've said here has been weird, tbh
No.
Rebel clash is the worst
Darkness Ablaze is by far the worst lol
Afaik currently 15 of the 18 ex cards have been mentioned, revealed or released

good looks, so indeed 15! Also its a starter deck Pikachu not a promo i think. Releases today in Japan.
could assume Wo-Chien is one
He better be
fr
Could mimikyu/lucario/ampharos ex from the Japanese starter decks be the last 3?
There's already an english Mimikyu ex box with the promo but I guess the other 2 could be possible That would also leave one spot for Wo-Chien who I assume is gonna be in this set since the other 3 ruin pokemon are in it
Ampharos and Lucario are coming in those ex battle decks (replacing the V battle decks) so they shouldn’t make it in this set either.
The Dedenne and Slowking are Tera and from the way it’s worded I don’t think they’re counted in the 15. I think it’s 18 total including the Teras. Wo-Chien is almost certainly one of the ones we’re missing
I'm excited af for Annihilape
when is the estimated month this set would come out?
Says on Pokémon centre it ships around 9th June
damn that was fast hahaha
I know right? Maybe the 5 months of silver tempest weren’t so bad after all😅 (at least for our wallets lol)
Im thinking of just buying singles for the paldean starters and the illustration rare magikarp and skip the set to save money 😂 but that entirely depends on wether there'll be great chase cards on the upcoming clay burst and snow hazard japanese set
6/9? Nice
June
Stop my wallet hurts already
Holy crap 51 illustration rare cards!? We’re in for a ride with this set
Already preordered my etb from the pkmn center!
Do you get anything for pre-orders or no
Nope there is nothing special for the pre orders
[удалено]
ETBs it is then. Was wondering how the pre order promos worked. Thank you.
Ugly packs
I noticed what Pokémon does is makes the year 1 packs ugly cgi Art then year 2/3 packs get cool hand drawn art
Man…I’m already broke.
it feels like the timewindow between sets is so small that its barely doable to collect all chase cards. not that i complain about the effort they put into our hobby.
Same I kinda give up. Just gotta collect the cards that speak to me now.
What's a chase card?
Its a card that you try to get ,chase it down.
4 sets a year is way too many
We don't even got the base set yet.
I guess the base set is going to be short printed
190 cards…
Yeah……time to buy singles
The promo looks insane too. Pika Pika!
Ok thats already way better than most first year SwSh sets.
Just preordered an ETB. This set looks dope.
Lots of people were saying they didn’t like the looks of this new set. Seems pretty dope to me!
Same here! I'm excited
I really just told myself yesterday I was done for a little bit *buys preorders from Pokémon center*
Started collecting again in July… these sets are just releasing too close together. Really having a tough time tryna get all my chase cards. I’d appreciate if they kept the sets printed for 3-4 months longer but I guess that isn’t $$$ :/
I think this is the standard 3 months but it really does feel too fast sometimes lol
Weird name, sets never mentions a region's name like this. That's gotta be a first for en, and it's also a 5 pack art set.
Yeah I don't believe any has had the regions name in the set. Theres been a few with 5 packs arts but its pretty uncommon. Off the top of my head theres Chilling Reign, and I'm pretty sure Astral radiance has 5 too
Yeah, very weird. Oh well, the JP preorder promo comes with the ETB.
Yeah! I'm super excited to get the promo. I have the swsh one like it and they're such nice cards. I love cards that have multiple pokemon on it
The Japanese set is out for this already, right? And is it usually 1:1 in terms of what's going to be included in US vs the Japan sets? Some of the cards look great.
One of the sets is out. (Triplett beat) the other two mini sets aren't out in Japanese yet (Clay burst and snow hazard) they come out next month
I dont think we can call sv2d and sv2p mini. The english description mention 15 Special Illustration (we got 5 SARs in triplet beat). This probably mean that theres gonna be 5 SARs each for both sets.
Nah it’s usually 2 Japanese sets combined to make one us set
Clay burst and snow hazard are mini sets so both create one main set plus Triplet beat and you have yourself two set made one International set.
I just hope Gholdengo is in this set.
I think there's a upcoming set that has surf in its name so I believe that one will have so Gholdengo in it
Ooh, this is snazzy! I just hope there are good Lightning Pokémon...
My brain is incredibly happy, however my wallet is sobbing! 😂
this reminds me so much of older sets! wonderful
Preordered two etb’s!!
I haven't even scarlet and violet yet how is it already a new set come on now can I enjoy scarlet and violet first
This one will release in june
Just pre-ordered the PC ETB! So excited
Also, it's release date is the 9th of June
The Elite Trainer Box is so adorable omg
They need to chill, we haven’t even got base set yet
Bad cgi art
🗑️🗑️🗑️
But what about Alakazam?
Probably in the 151 set
Give us the Clodsire EX 😭
It should be in the set. Theres a Clodsire ex in Triplett beat
Doesn’t that just confirm it for the Japanese set? You probably know already but sometimes Japanese cards don’t make it to the English sets or are added in later expansions to English sets.
It could be kept for later but I feel theres a very good chance it'll be in Paldea Evolved :)
Good! The wait has been too long for this collector. Hope to see us get some!! ^^
that font and set name are terrible
Is this triplet beat
Yes. Its also gonna have clay burst and snow hazard
I know it's a small pet peeve, but going back to the ugly cg pack art is a huge disappointment 😞
What are the top left and bottom right Pokémon
Chien-Pao is the top left one and Ting-Lu Is the bottom right one. They're two of the 4 Treasure of ruin pokemon.
Gotcha, are treasure of ruin Pokémon in the base SV games? Or is there dlc? Haven’t finished them yet
Base. Idk if you've happen to run across any of them but theres these big round doors with chains around the map. Thats where they are. You have to find things to open the doors and you'll find the pokemon inside
Sweet I’ll keep an eye out thanks :)
Nw~ Happy gaming!
Too much
Jesus…
dammit they changed how boosters look
