Pokémon fans lose it over surprise new release we need immediately

My sweet Eevee

There are plenty of great Pokémon out there, but for my money Eevee is quite clearly the best of the bunch.

While there are so many other awesome 'Mon, I love Eevee. I named my cat after Eevee, and my second cat after Sylveon. I also happen to adore every single one of Eevee's evolutions (especially Umbreon).

You won't be too surprised, then, to learn that I'm particularly excited about a surprise new release from The Pokémon Company that puts my fuzzy little fave in the spotlight.

Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet: Prismatic Evolutions is a hefty new expansion set for the trading card game that's all about Eevee and its various evolutions.

This special set will be released in Japan this year, with an English release to follow in January. You can expect it to contain a whopping 175 cards, which you can grab via booster boxes or regular booster packs, as well as anywhere else you might usually get your Pokémon cards.

“From fluffy and fiery to freezing and fanciful, Eevee and its many Evolutions hold a special place in the hearts of Pokémon Trainers across the land," reads the set's official description.

"Discover their unique new powers as Stellar Tera Pokémon ex, and look for treasure of your very own across a grand gathering of Pokémon ex from Paldea and beyond. Glittering gems and hidden patterns await at the end of the rainbow in the Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Prismatic Evolutions expansion!”

Cards from the new set will be available starting with the Scarlet & Violet—Prismatic Evolutions Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box, which you can now pre-order. This set Includes "11 Scarlet & Violet - Prismatic Evolutions booster packs; two copies of an illustration rare-style promo card featuring Eevee, with one showcasing the Pokémon Center logo; and various gameplay accessories."

From 17 January you'll be able to get the Elite Trainer Box, which includes "nine Scarlet & VioletPrismatic Evolutions booster packs, one illustration rare-style promo card featuring Eevee and various gameplay accessories."

You can find more details on the various collections releasing as part of the new set through the first quarter of 2025 over on the official Pokémon website.
