Along with the Loyal Three and Ogerpon, fans of Pokemon TCG can anticipate the appearance of popular creatures such as Bloodmoon Ursaluna, Sinistcha, and Dragapult. In particular, Dragapult ex is a highly anticipated card, with some speculating that it could potentially counter the dominating Charizard ex deck.

Temporal Forces brought back ACE SPEC cards to the Pokemon trading card game, but Twilight Masquerade has potentially introduced the most exceptional ACE SPEC gems to date.

Unfair Stamp (165/167) is often recognized as a dominant card, with its Ability truly embodying its name. As previously demonstrated, this card has the potential to completely alter the game for players who have had a Pokemon Knocked Out.
