The Pokémon Trading Card Game is set to captivate fans once again with the launch of Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together on March 28, 2025. This highly anticipated expansion brings back the beloved Trainer's Pokémon cards, first seen in the Gym Heroes set.

In addition to the Trainer's Pokémon, Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together introduces 16 new Pokémon ex cards, along with ultra-rare artwork and hyper-rare gold-etched cards. These additions are expected to enhance the collecting and battling experience in both the physical Pokémon TCG and digital platforms like Pokémon TCG Live.

Trainer’s Pokémon Return with New Battle Strategies
A major draw of the Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together set is the return of Trainer's Pokémon. These cards not only celebrate the bond between Pokémon and their Trainers but also introduce powerful new strategies to the game. Some of the most eagerly awaited Trainer's Pokémon cards include:
