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.

Reprint Timeline and Scalping Concerns:
While the company confirmed that reprints are in production and will soon reach licensed distributors, a specific release date for these reprints was not provided. Although online speculation points to scalpers as a contributing factor to the shortages, The Pokémon Company attributed the issue to "high demand."
Future Releases:
Beyond the reprints, The Pokémon Company confirmed additional Prismatic Evolutions products are planned for release in the coming months, as previously announced:
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.
