The Pokémon Trading Card Game is set to captivate fans once again with the launch of the Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together expansion on March 28, 2025. This eagerly awaited set brings back the beloved Trainer’s Pokémon cards, a unique card type first seen in the Gym Heroes expansion. These cards feature iconic Pokémon paired with their well-known Trainers, adding a fresh twist to gameplay with their distinct strategies and abilities.
In addition to the return of Trainer’s Pokémon, the expansion introduces 16 new Pokémon ex cards, along with ultra-rare artwork and hyper-rare gold-etched cards. These new additions are expected to enhance the collecting and battling experience in both the physical Pokémon TCG and digital platforms like Pokémon TCG Live. While there's no official word on the inclusion in Pokémon TCG Pocket, the game's ongoing development suggests that fans should keep an eye out for potential updates related to this expansion.
Trainer’s Pokémon Return with New Battle Strategies
The highlight of Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together is undoubtedly the 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 anticipated 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.
