Aside from the new “Competitive Play” trailer at the 2022 Pokémon World Championship, Pokémon Company president Tsunekazu Ishihara also announced a new series of trading cards.
In a separate video, Atsushi Nagashima, Creatures Inc.’s Pokémon TCG game director, explained that the teaser video is the “world’s first sneak peek” of the new Scarlet & Violet TCG series launching in 2023. .
Here’s exactly what he had to say about the video above.
The “ex” logo introduced in the video symbolizes the upcoming series. A design that makes you feel sophisticated strength and vitality. Pokémon ex appear at each stage of evolution as Basic, Stage 1, and Stage 2 Pokémon. They have high HP and powerful abilities and attacks. However, if he kills one of these Pokémon, he can take two side cards.
Defeating ex-Pokemon can sometimes require two sides, but especially 2nd-stage Pokemon have high HP comparable to Pokemon VMAX and powerful attacks that require almost no energy, and have the power to turn the battlefield over in an instant. The powerful Stage 2 Pokemon ex is just one example of how the play environment can become more diverse and different Pokemon can shine.
In addition, Pokemon, Trainer Cards, and Energy Cards that can change the battle situation are also scheduled to appear in “Comeback”, which is an important theme of the Scarlet & Violet series. In this series, from familiar Pokemon to newly discovered Pokemon, it will appear as Pokemon ex, so please wait for the follow-up report.
The Pokemon TCG Scarlet & Violet series shows further expansion as a new standard for Pokemon TCG, and shakes up the game in various ways. Please continue to look forward to the evolution of Pokemon TCG.
