Shiny Tera Charizard Ex Will Be A Pokémon TCG Promo Card

The Shiny Tera Charizard ex thought to be included in Scarlet & Violet - Paldean Fates will actually be a promo card in a Pokémon TCG tin.

What could've been a $100+ chase card will now be a guaranteed SV Black Star Promo in one of Pokémon TCG's products slated for early 2024. The Shiny Charizard GX was the chase card of Hidden Fates, and the Shiny Charizard VMAX was the chase card of Shining Fates, but we will now see the Pokémon TCG put the Shiny Tera Charizard ex as the promo card in an upcoming tin rather than in booster packs of Scarlet & Violet – Paldean Fates. The Shiny Tera Charizard ex tin, releasing February 9th, includes four Scarlet & Violet—Paldean Fates booster packs and one Shiny Pokémon ex promo card featuring Tera Charizard ex. It is likely, though, that there will be a Shiny Tera Charizard ex Special Illustration Rare in Scarlet & Violet – Paldean Fates. That, if it exists, will undoubtedly be the chase card.

In addition to this news, here is the upcoming slate of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet – Paldean Fates releases for the first quarter of 2024:

• Gyarados ex Premium Collection (release date not yet known): Features six booster packs, an etched foil Tera Charizard ex reprint from Scarlet & Violet, a reverse holo card featuring a reprinted Magikarp, a magnetic card protector with a display base, and 65 card sleeves featuring Tera Gyarados.
