POKEMON TRADING CARD GAME Announces New CHAMPION'S PATH Expansion
The Pokémon Trading Card Game has announced a new upcoming expansion called Champion’s Path. This new set will allow trainers to collect various pins that have the Gym logos in addition to special foil cards that represent each Gym Leader’s partner Pokémon. All of this is to help “’recreate’ [the player’s] journey through the Galar region…” There will be 11 Pokémon V, 4 additional full-art Pokémon V, 3 Pokémon VMAX, and one full-art Supporter. Some of the new Pokémon V include Venusaur, Inceroar, and Lucario with Drednaw VMAX and Alcremie VMAX taking some of those spots.
There are a few different pin collections that are releasing, one for each gym. The first set of Champion’s Path pin collections will include the pin and foil card for Milo’s Turffield Gym, Nessa’s Hulbury Gym, and Kabu’s Motostoke Gym and will release on September 25. Then, collections for Opal’s Ballonlea Gym, Piers’ Spikemuth Gym, and Raihan’s Hammerlocke Gym will be available on November 13. If you’re a fan of Stow-on-Side Gym and Circhester Gym, then you’ll want to look out for the Champion’s Path special pin collection on October 2.
If you’re a fan of Charizard, you’ll be pumped for the Champion’s Path Elite Trainer Box. The box features cool art of Gigantamax Charizard and inside, fans will find various accessories, 10 Champion’s Path booster packs, and a full-art Charizard V promo card. This will be available on September 25.
On October 23, fans will be able to find the Champion’s Path collection sets for Dubwool V and Hatterene V. Each set comes with a special foil promo and oversized version of their selected Pokémon along with 4 Champion’s Path booster packs.
