There are a few reasons why fans are so eager for this set. Many cards are inspired by the base set, but you’ll also get “quintessential cards from throughout the game’s long history.” With Energy cards being the only exception, the cards aren’t tournament-legal, making them mostly collector’s items.

By the looks of it, the set has already sold out at the Pokemon Center online store. If you missed it, don’t despair, as the cards will be released in a separate product scheduled for February 2024.

1 toolbox case with randomizer
2 sets of damage counter cones

While you’re waiting for the Classic cards, you can purchase thePokemon 151 set which is slated to launch on September 22. It’ll also be revising Kanto and shining a spotlight on the creatures that started it all.
