The Pokémon Company addresses widespread shortages of its highly anticipated Scarlet and Violet—Prismatic Evolutions trading card game expansion. Acknowledging the significant supply issues impacting global availability, including the US, the company assures fans that reprints are underway.

Players can also obtain Prismatic Evolutions cards starting January 16th, 2025, through the Pokémon TCG Live mobile game's Battle Pass. The Pokémon Company expressed gratitude for fans' patience and reiterated their commitment to resolving the supply issues.
