The Pokémon Trading Card Game is set to expand with the exciting new set, Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together, launching worldwide on March 28, 2025. This expansion brings back the beloved Trainer’s Pokémon cards, first seen in the Gym Heroes set, which pair iconic Pokémon with their well-known Trainers. These cards introduce unique battle strategies and abilities, adding a fresh twist to the game.
In addition to the Trainer’s Pokémon, Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together will feature 16 new Pokémon ex cards, along with ultra-rare artwork and hyper-rare gold-etched cards. These additions are expected to enhance both the physical and digital versions of the game, including Pokémon TCG Live. While there's no official word on their inclusion in Pokémon TCG Pocket, the game's ongoing development suggests that fans should keep an eye out for future updates.
Trainer’s Pokémon Return with New Battle Strategies
The highlight of Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together is undoubtedly the return of Trainer’s Pokémon cards. These cards not only showcase famous Pokémon alongside their Trainers but also offer powerful synergies in battle. Some of the most eagerly awaited Trainer’s Pokémon include:
- N’s Zoroark ex
- Lillie’s Clefairy ex
- Iono’s Bellibolt ex
- Hop’s Zacian ex

This expansion is part of Pokémon's broader strategy to reach a wider audience and enhance inclusivity. By offering the game in Latin American Spanish, more players can enjoy the full experience in their native language, from casual matches to competitive tournaments. This move also paves the way for expanded local events and a stronger presence in Latin American Pokémon communities.
Digital Play and Future Expansions
Players of Pokémon TCG Live can start collecting and battling with Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together cards a day early, on March 27, 2025. Although there's no confirmation yet about the expansion coming to Pokémon TCG Pocket, the game's continuous updates suggest that players should stay tuned for future announcements.
