Are These Victini Cards The Best Pokémon TCG Promos Ever?

Taiwan has revaled two new Victini promo cards, but will these Pokémon TCG cards ever be released in Japan or the United States?

This is an unusual bit of Pokémon TCG news. Taiwan has released images for new Victini promo cards. We have a Victini ex Full Art and a Victini ex Special Illustration Rare. These cards will be given out as prizes in tournaments where players compete with decks made entirely out of cards pulled from booster packs of Japan's new set, Raging Surf, which Taiwan also receives. We do not have any information regarding the release of these cards in English or Japanese.
