New Pikachu & Sprigatito Promos Feature In 2024 Pokémon TCG Chest

Pokémon TCG announces the Paldea Adventure Chest featuring six promo cards, including a Pikachu Illustration Rare & Sprigatito ex.



Article Summary

  • Paldea Adventures Chest launches with exclusive Pikachu & Sprigatito promos.
  • Includes a rare Pikachu card by artist saino misaki and first Sprigatito ex.
  • Chest contains booster packs, foil cards, and collectible Pikachu squishy.
  • 2024's Q1 lineup of Pokémon TCG products unveiled, packed with exclusives.

This month has been loaded with news regarding new Pokémon TCG products coming in the first quarter of 2024, and fans are likely to say this is the strongest announcement so far. The Paldea Adventures Chest, available March 1, 2024, features a new Illustration Rare and a Paldean Starter getting its first-ever ex. This product includes six booster packs, seven foil promo cards, one sheet of stickers, one mini portfolio, and one squishy Pikachu toy. Five of the promo cards are reprints from Scarlet & Violet sets, while two of them are new SV Black Star Promos. The two new SV Black Star Promos exclusive to this product are a Pikachu Illustration Rare drawn by saino misaki and a Sprigatito ex. Illustration Rare promos are mostly held for Elite Trainer Boxes, so seeing this Pikachu show up like this is quite a surprise. It's also surprising considering neither the Pikachu Illustration Rare nor Sprigatito ex from this product have been seen in Japan yet.
