The Pokemon Company has revealed Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable, the next set in the beloved TCG. This set will add a selection of new cards in August 2024, some of which were first seen in The Hidden Treasures of Area Zero DLCs.
Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable is set to add a bunch of new cards for competitive players to add to their decks and experiment with, as well as some incredibly desirable collectibles. Perhaps most exciting of all, it’s going to add a new foil variant to shiny cards that are going to make foil pulls from packs even more exciting. All Pokemon TCG fans should be keeping an eye on this one because it’s going to really change the game when it drops.
When is the release date for Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable?
The release date for the Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable is August 2, 2024. This is when retailers will be able to sell products from the set, though there could be prerelease events leading up to that date th🤡at will allow fans to get their hands on cards early, depending on what their local game stores offer.
The only exception to this is the Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable Booster Bundle, which will go on sale on September 6, 2024.
What is the Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable set?
The Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable set will introduce brand new aspects to the TCG, including Pecharunt. This Pokemon was originally discovered in The Hidden Treasures of Area Zero DLCs for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and it’s coming to the TCG as a Darkness-Type.
Players will be able to use Pecharunt ex to let them switch in another Darkness-Type Pokemon that’s currently benched with its Subjugating Chains ability. It can also be paired with the Pokemon you’ll recognize from when you first encountered it, Okidogi ex, Munkidori ex, and Fezandipiti ex for various combos.
What I think might be the most exciting part of this set is the fact that it adds another unique foil pattern. These will still be Parallel Foils, but they’ll feature a new foil style surrounding the artwork of the card. You can check if you get one of these using the expansion code in the bottom left-hand corner of the card. It should show an illustrated white box with black text if it’s one of these new variants from the Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable set.
Where to buy the Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable set
Your local game store is the best place to purchase any products from the Pokemon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Shrouded Fable set. These stores help keep the game alive and offer exclusive opportunities to collectors. However, they’re not available to everyone, especially if you live out in the sticks like me. So, for those of you who need an online retailer, these are the best ones to use.
- (US & UK): The Pokemon Center Online is the most reliable retailer of Pokemon TCG products. It’s also a great place to check in for exclusive products that you might not be able to get elsewhere. I’ve seen particularly good deals on there from time to time, but they sell out fast.
- (US & UK): I’ve used Chaos Cards before for TCG products, and they’ve always delivered my goods on time. This is a good retailer to choose from when it comes to pre-orders because you can collect points to get discounts on future purchases.
- (US & UK): Magic Madhouse is a great retailer from which to get TCG products, provided you pre-order them early. If you don’t, you’ll be paying a premium. However, everything I’ve ever ordered has always arrived on time and intact, which is the most important thing.
