Pokémon TCG Announces Scarlet & Violet – 151 Set

Pokémon TCG has announced the first special set of the new era, Scarlet & Violet – 151. This expansion features Kanto species in Dex order.

Pokémon TCG has announced the first special set of the Scarlet & Violet era. The expansion, titled Scarlet & Violet—151, will release worldwide starting on September 22nd, 2023. This set is notably the first special set to have the era's name in the title, like a normal main series expansion. What makes this a special set is that it will be released in products branded specifically to the set rather than in booster boxes and loose booster packs. Adapted from the Japanse Pokémon Card 151 set, this expansion will feature cards of all original 151 Pokémon from the Kanto region in their Pokédex order. Now that the Pokémon TCG has released the product solicitations for this expansion, let's get into the details.
