The Pokémon Trading Card Game is set to expand once again with the release of *Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together*, launching globally on March 28, 2025. This latest expansion brings back a nostalgic and beloved card type: Trainer’s Pokémon—iconic duos of Pokémon and their well-known Trainers. Originally introduced in the Gym Heroes set, these cards offer fresh strategies and powerful synergies that are sure to shake up gameplay.

In addition to the return of Trainer’s Pokémon, the set will feature 16 brand-new Pokémon ex, stunning ultra-rare artwork, and eye-catching hyper-rare gold-etched cards. These collectibles are expected to make their way into digital platforms like [ttpp]Pokémon TCG Pocket[/ttpp], although no official announcement has been made yet. Regardless, fans can enjoy these additions across both physical packs and digital play via Pokémon TCG Live, ensuring a seamless experience for collectors and battlers alike.

Trainer’s Pokémon Return with Fresh Battle Strategies

Expanding the Pokémon TCG Experience

This expansion continues Pokémon’s mission to make the TCG more accessible and inclusive.
