Pokémon TCG To Release Paldea Collections In January 2023

The first Scarlet & Violet era cards are arriving in the Pokémon TCG on January 6th with three new boxes. These Paldea Collections will kick off the SV Black Star Promos as well as give us our first few cards from the Scarlet & Violet base set which won't release in full until the end of March 2023. Each box will each feature three cards with the Sprigatito Paldea Collection featuring a Sprigatito Black Star Promo and reprinted Quaxly and Fuecoco cards from Scarlet & Violet base, the Quaxly Paldea Collection featuring a Quaxly Black Star Promo and reprinted Sprigatito and Fuecoco cards from Scarlet & Violet base, and the Fuecoco Paldea Collection featuring a Fuecoco Black Star Promo and reprinted Quaxlly and Sprigatito cards from Scarlet & Violet base. They will come with oversized Miraidon ex and Koraidon ex cards (one each) which won't have typings on them. These include four booster packs but note that they are releasing almost three entire months before the first Scarlet & Violet set. That means that the booster packs within will be all Sword & Shield-era sets.
