This month is packed with excitement for Pokémon enthusiasts! According to PokéBeach.com, Players attending Japan’s Gym tournaments have a delightful treat waiting for them—a new promo pack featuring one of seven promo cards. With a mix of brand-new cards and beloved reprints, this set is sure to thrill collectors and players alike.

The Stars of the Show

The highlight of the promo pack is undoubtedly Veluza ex, a chase card that fans are eagerly anticipating. While our friends in Japan can snag this gem now, those of us in other regions will have to practice a little patience. Veluza ex is expected to make its way to us in a future “ex Box” or set, likely within the next six months. So, mark your calendars and keep your decks ready!

Fresh Faces and Familiar Favorites

In addition to Veluza ex, the pack boasts a blend of new and reprinted cards:

Roto-Stick
Billy & O'Nare
Ditto (reprint)
Super Rod (reprint)
Professor's Research (reprint)

These cards will be available at participating Pokémon Card Gym Stores across Japan, adding an extra layer of excitement to the tournaments.

Special Surprise Promo
