Today marks a new era for the Pokémon Trading Card Game with the release of the first expansion in the Sword & Shield Series. Taking its inspiration from the Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield video games, this expansion introduces a brand-new mechanic to the Pokémon TCG: Pokémon VMAX. Pokémon VMAX evolve from Pokémon V and feature Dynamax or Gigantamax Pokémon, with players able to collect cards like Snorlax VMAX and Lapras VMAX—both in their Gigantamax forms.

- Over 50 Pokémon from the Galar region
- 17 Pokémon V and 12 full-art Pokémon V, including Zacian V and Zamazenta V
- Four Pokémon VMAX, including Snorlax VMAX and Lapras VMAX
- More than 30 Trainer cards, including three full-art Supporter cards
- A new Special Energy card
In addition, Trainers in the UK have the opportunity to obtain two promo cards: Galarian Obstagoon and oversize Snorlax V. From February 7 and while stocks last, spend £10 or more on Pokémon TCG products in WHSmith high street stores to receive Galarian Obstagoon; or purchase any Pokémon TCG product in GAME stores to receive oversize Snorlax V.
