We have a new reveal of cards from Destined Rivals.
Destined Rivals is the upcoming highly anticipated Pokémon TCG set in the Scarlet and Violet series. It releases at the end of May, and the English set will be made up of cards from two recent Japanese sets. These are Heat Wave Arena and The Glory of Team Rocket. As a result, people are very interested to see which cards from those sets will make up Destined Rivals.
Today, we had our first official card reveal from The Pokémon Company. Destined Rivals will feature Owner's Pokémon from Team Rocket (of course!) as well as Misty, Ethan, Steven, Cynthia, Arvern and Marnie.
Here are all the cards that we have seen today that you can look forward to trying to pull in Destined Rivals.
