The Pokémon Company has this week officially confirmed the next English language Trading Card Game expansion set. It's officially titled 'Surging Sparks' and is scheduled to launch on 8th November 2024.

Trainers can look forward to over 250 cards, new Tera Pokémon ex, Ace Spec cards, and many electrifying- lightning-type Pokémon as well as roaring dragon-type. Here's a look at some of the official artwork for this new expansion:

The official Pokémon website has shared a description:

Pokémon.com: "Terawatts of electricity crash down from the sky in a tropical paradise, setting the stage for the supercharged Pikachu ex! With the power of a Stellar Tera Pokémon ex, it lights up the shoreline, revealing a parade of dragon Pokémon led by the towering Alolan Exeggutor ex! Archaludon ex and Latias ex round out the horde, while new ACE SPEC cards and more new Pokémon ex bring surprises of their own. Currents crackle and dragons roar in the Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Surging Sparks expansion!"

At the Pokémon World Championships last week, it was revealed Trainer's Pokémon (& Team Rocket) would return to the TCG.
