Pokémon TCG To Release Another Trainer Toolkit… With A VSTAR?
The Pokémon TCG will release a new Trainer's Toolkit on July 1st, 2022. These boxes contain four Pokémon TCG booster packs with the specific sets not specified, card sleeves themed to the box art which has yet to be revealed, competitive gaming items (dice, condition markers, etc), 100+ Energy Cards, and a selection of 56 cards with two being Promo Cards. The first Trainer's Toolkit included the Alternate Art Dedenne GX which was a major draw while the second included a new Crobat V and two seemingly random SM-era Black Star Promos (Mismagius and a new Trainer card) that had yet to be adapted to English. We don't yet know what the promo cards in this third version will be, but the box indicates that it will include a VSTAR marker. While this is not a guarantee of a VSTAR, it certainly makes one wonder.
