The Pokémon Trading Card Game is set to captivate fans once again with the launch of the Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together expansion on March 28, 2025. This eagerly awaited set introduces the return of Trainer’s Pokémon, a unique card type that pairs iconic Pokémon with their celebrated Trainers. Originally debuted in the Gym Heroes set, these cards offer fresh and strategic gameplay elements that enhance the thrill of every match.

In addition to the Trainer’s Pokémon, the expansion will feature 16 new Pokémon ex cards, along with ultra-rare and hyper-rare gold-etched cards. These exciting additions are expected to be available in Pokémon TCG Pocket as well, allowing enthusiasts to collect, trade, and battle with them across both physical and digital platforms, including Pokémon TCG Live. Although Pokémon TCG Pocket has not been officially linked to this release, the game's growth suggests that updates related to this expansion might be on the horizon.

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 highlight beloved Pokémon alongside their Trainers but also bring powerful synergies to the battlefield. Among the most anticipated cards are:

• N’s Zoroark ex
• Lillie’s Clefairy ex
• Iono’s Bellibolt ex
• Hop’s Zacian ex

This expansion is part of Pokémon's broader initiative to make the TCG more accessible and inclusive. By offering the game in Latin American Spanish, Pokémon aims to engage a wider audience, enabling players to enjoy the game in their native language, whether in casual play or competitive tournaments. This move also paves the way for more local events and a stronger presence within Latin American Pokémon communities.
