Team Rocket takes center stage in the latest Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion. Scarlet & Violet – Destined Rivals puts the likes of Giovanni, his Mewtwo, and various other well-known Pokémon used by the nefarious organization in the spotlight.
The Pokémon Company sent us a bunch of booster packs of this latest expansion to crack open and share our favorites. Pokémon Trading Card Game: Scarlet & Violet – Destined Rivals adds more than 240 new cards to the perpetually growing TCG catalog. Of those cards, over 85 are Trainer Pokémon, with more than 45 belonging to Team Rocket. I loved opening packs and finding Team Rocket versions of Golbat, Arbok, and, of course, Mewtwo.
However, trainers powerful enough to oppose Team Rocket, like Misty, Cynthia, Ethan, and Arven, are also featured; Misty’s Gyarados is among my favorite cards I pulled. You can see the complete gallery of my favorites below.
Pokémon Trading Card Game: Scarlet & Violet – Destined Rivals arrives on store shelves on May 30. For more Pokémon TCG coverage, head to our hub through the banner below or by visiting this link.
