About Sword & Shield: Silver Tempest

Sword & Shield: Silver Tempest reveals three new Radiant Pokémon, including Radiant Jirachi and Radiant Alakazam. These are Shiny Pokémon with powerful abilities or attacks that are shown in etched artwork. There are also more Pokémon VSTAR in the new expansion, like Lugia VSTAR, Regidrago VSTAR, and Alolan Vulpix VSTAR, which is the first Pokémon VSTAR in the Pokémon TCG that hasn’t fully evolved.

With these Pokémon Tool cards, you can give any Pokémon V a VSTAR Power. Attach the Forest Seal Stone to your Pokémon V to give it the Star Alchemy Ability. Use this VSTAR Power to look through your deck for a card and put it in your hand. This is great for finding that one card you need at any point in the game. You can also go on the attack by putting an Earthen Seal Stone on one of your Pokémon V. This will give it the Star Gravity attack, which damages each of your opponent’s Pokémon V until it has 100 HP left. These powerful Pokémon Tool cards will rock the boat and make any Pokémon look great.

In Sword & Shield: Silver Tempest, Pokémon with strong attacks and abilities shine brightly. These Shiny Pokémon don’t have to evolve before they can be used. You don’t have to worry about that. But you can only play one Radiant Pokémon in your deck, so the choice you make when building your deck is important. Radiant Alakazam can move damage counters and set up key Knock Outs, and Radiant Tsareena can heal your Pokémon. Radiant Jirachi even has an ability that lets you search your deck for up to three cards and put them into your hand after it’s been Knocked Out. Which one will you pick?

In Sword & Shield—Silver Tempest, Pokémon VSTAR continue to show off their incredible power. Fans’ favorite Pokémon, Lugia and Alolan Vulpix, join Regidrago VSTAR and Unown VSTAR for the first time as Pokémon VSTAR. Use Lugia’s Summoning Star VSTAR Power to take over the field, or use Alolan Vulpix VSTAR’s Snow Mirage attack to block your opponents.

As a way to celebrate the release of Sword & Shield—Silver Tempest, Trainers can go to GameStop in the US and Canada or EB Games in Australia and New Zealand to get a special promo card with Dragonite when they buy $15 or more of Pokémon TCG online or in-store.
