The Pokémon TCG's latest set, Journey Together, has not lived up to expectations, as it failed to invigorate the game format significantly. Despite the set's letdown, it remains incredibly hard to purchase due to high demand and scalping practices. However, anticipation builds for the upcoming Destined Rivals set, releasing on May 30, which aims to enhance the Trainer Pokémon selection and marks the return of Team Rocket after 25 years. Pre-release events are scheduled for May 17, giving dedicated fans an opportunity to secure cards before dealing with scalpers.
Individual cards may be more reasonably priced, but just buying the packs means pouncing on stores the moment they receive stock updates, and then fighting the scalpers to get any.
Journey Together should have been the very exciting return of Trainer Pokémon to the card game but instead proved rather flat, failing to significantly shake up the format.
Destined Rivals not only enormously elaborates on the range of Trainer Pokémon, but also reintroduces Team Rocket to the TCG for the first time in 25 years.
Scalpers can't abuse this, because to get your packs you need to open and play with them!
