First up is the Battle Heart Tin featuring Pikachu EX. There have been tins released in the past which are always a good investment for collectors. This particular item depicts an embossed Pikachu on the lid below a clear plastic window. The lid is also depicts a contrasting pattern of a starry sky with a fiery background which makes it appear to subtly hint at Pokémon Sun and Moon. One could also imagine the celestial images as more mechanical which would represent Magearna and the fire is used for Volcanion. Both of these Pokémon, along with Pikachu, are printed along the sides of container. The look itself is very appealing and could appeal to fans of both the older and more recent generations. It can even be used to hold all kinds of Pokémon memorabilia when traveling to game nights and competitions.
Once again, the Pokémon TCG has launched an Elite Trainer Box to coincide with a set's release. This time, though, there are two ETBs to choose from — one featuring Gardevoir and one featuring Lucario. Depending on which box you get, you'll get card sleeves, a coin, and a box with that specific Pokémon on it. The Gardevoir ETB features an Alakazam promo card, while the Lucario ETB has a Riolu pro
No combination of Pokémon, Trainers, and Energy cards is perfect, and generally you'll have to reconfigure your deck before each gym to serve as a hard-counter to its core strategy. Like in the main series games, gyms use decks themed around specific types, but you shouldn't expect all the same type matchups from the games to work here. [[https://Pokemontcgdeck.com/ Pokemon TCG Collecting Guide|Https://Pokemontcgdeck.Com/]] types have been reshuffled to fit into six broader categories for the sake of simplicity - for instance, all flying-types in from the games are now normal-types with fighting resistances, so an all-fighting team will get wiped pretty easily by the normal gym.

Deletions:
image class="left" url="https://www.istockphoto.com/photos/class="Both decks offer some hard-hitting action which means every opponent you face is going to have to step it up. There are a surprising amount of Dark and Ghost type Pokémon found in the decks. Perhaps that's what happens when there is Forbidden Light. Strategizing shouldn't be hard as most of the cards involved compliment each other in some way. Amateurs could fair well in tournaments with either set. As always, every item comes with codes to enter so you can play with all these cards for Pokémon [[https://pokemontcgdeck.com/ Pokemon TCG Card list|https://pokemontcgdeck.com/]] Online.
This shadowy card for Zekrom ex, card 172/086, is currently listed on TCGPlayer with a market price of $457.52 USD. Its value has gone up and down a bit over the past couple months since the set released in July 2025, but has been fairly steady for a while
Along with those powerful cards comes some fun things as well. You receive a huge, much larger version of the Charizard-GX. It can't be used in legit competitions but makes for a nice collectible to be displayed. There are six booster packs from different sets. You will find cards from Guardians Rising and Burning Shadows expansions. A coin is included featuring Charizard. Use it during matches for certain attacks and other occurrences. Finally, show off a Charizard badge however you wish! It is fully colored and finely detailed. Place it on backpacks, clothing, purses and more to let everyone know your favorite Pokémon. These alone make the entire Charizard-GX Premium Collection well worth the price.
Magikarp may not be everyone's favorite Pokémon to use in battle, as it is not traditionally a strong or impressive little fish monster, but this card is certainly one to impress. Part of the Paldea Evolved set from June 2023, this holofoil card shows a market price of $370.20 USD on TCGPlayer as of the time of writ
We also received a Dawn Wings Necrozma-GX tin. A magnificently embossed image of the hybrid Pokémon is featured on front. A printed depiction of it as well as its Dusk Mane counterpart are on each side. It's a great item for collectors and anyone with plenty of Pokémon cards to carry around. Place all your Pokémon knickknacks in there for trips and events. Since you get the tin, the card automatically comes with. Dawn Wings Necrozma starts out as a Basic Pokémon which already makes it powerful. There is no need for evolutions so you can get right into the action. Its ability allows you to switch it into the fray if it's on the bench. That means, once you have attached three Psychic energy cards, you can unleash its Dark Flash attack which deals 120 damage and ignores resistance. If you want to get risky and use the GX move, Moon's Eclipse, it could help out in a jam as long as you have more prize cards than the opponent. It deals 180 damage and prevents all effects and damage to Dawn Wings Necrozma during the opponent's next turn.
We were also lucky enough to checkout some plush toys that are usually only available in a very specific manner. Those who pre-order Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon are given one of three plush key chains of the Alolan starters: Litten, Popplio and Rowlet, each of which is so adorable. They are made of soft fabric and very detailed with all markings and features present, and are very high quality, coming directly from the Pokémon Center. Plastic hooks in matching colors are attached to each one. Use them to clip onto various belongings such as purses, car keys, curtain rods or backpacks just to name a few. For those who plan on getting Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the pre-order bonus isn't a bad deal at all, and hopefully you will be able to get the one you favor the most!
In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Necrozma threatens existence. Half of the Ultra Recon Squad wants to stop it while the others wish to use its power. Forbidden Light features Necrozma recently absorbing the power of a legendary Pokémon. The rest of the Pokémon in existence must either choose to side with it or go up against it. So let's see exactly what's in store for your card battles with some items provided by TriplePoint PR.
