Pokémon TCG Reveals Pokémon Card 151: Vileplume
Vileplume and Old Helix Fossil from Pokémon TCG Japan's Pokémon Card 151 expansion have been revealed ahead of the set's summer release.
Pokémon TCG Japan has revealed details for the upcoming set Pokémon Card 151, an expansion based on the original 151 Pokémon introduced in the Kanto region. This set is notable in that it will be the first time we have seen a new Kadabra card in 21 years. Kadabra has been absent from the Pokémon TCG ever since magician Uri Geller sued the company for Kadabra's design, which he felt was inspired by his spoon-bending technique. Just three years ago, Geller withdrew his complaint and publicly apologized to Pokémon fans for the limits that had been placed on the use of Kadabra due to this highly popularized lawsuit. Outside of the return of Kadabra, this expansion is notable in that it will be in Pokédex order, where normal sets are ordered by type first and foremost. This set will be released on June 16th in Japan, and there are currently no details regarding the English-language release. I tend to think that this will be the first special set of the Scarlet & Violet era for English-language collectors, but as of now, there is no way to tell how Pokémon Card 151 will show up in the States. Today, let's take a look at look at another pair of cards from the set.
We begin today's Pokémon Card 151 previews with a Vileplume holographic rare. This is a beautifully intricate card, with a highly detailed background. Artist Sekio uses exceptionally thin line art which allows for incredibly strong details on the vegetation behind this Grass/Poison-type Pokémon. Sekio has been contributing to the Pokémon TCG since Sun & Moon – Guardians Rising. During the Scarlet & Violet era, Sekio has illustrated quite a few Paldean species, including Nymble, Glimmet, Cetoddle, Tandemaus, and Bombirdier. We also have an Old Felix Fossil card, from which Omanyte evolves.
Japanese sets often give us early ideas of what the English-language sets may include, so be sure to keep an eye on our coverage. You can stay tuned for previews of Scarlet & Violet cards as well as updates on everything Pokémon TCG right here at Bleeding Cool.
