A number of tins and collections have been revealed for the next Pokémon Trading Card Game set Darkness Ablaze.
We got a first look at the next set earlier this month, which will include a Charizard V and Charizard VMax for the first time. The set is a combination of two Japanese sets (as most non-core sets are): April’s set Explosive Walker and June’s set Infinity Zone.
We’ve already seen a lot of the core product from Darkness Ablaze, which includes an Elite Trainer Box featuring Poison/Dragon legendary Eternatus, two themes decks featuring Galarian Sirfetch’d and Galarian Darmanitan, multiple blister packs, and four different pack art featuring Centiscorch Vmax, Eternatus Vmax, Charizard Vmax, and Grimmsnarl Vmax.
Today, we got our first look at the next round of Darkness Ablaze products, including a set of tins and a premium collection box.
“V Power Tins” will come with one of three different promo cards: Pikachu, Eevee, or Eternatus. These tins look just like February’s Rebel Clash “Galar Partner Tins” and will be filled with 5 booster packs and a PTCGO code card. The tins will likely include two Darkness Ablaze packs and a random assortment of packs from past sets (please, no more XY Evolutions). The three tins will have a $24.99 MSRP and will release September 4th.
The second new product revealed today is the Enternatus Premium Collection box, which will also release on September 4th. Like past collections, this box includes an Eternatus Vmax promo, a Full Art Eternatus Vmax promo, and a Jumbo Eternatus Vmax promo, as well as 6 booster packs, a coin, and a PTCGO code card.
The six booster packs included seems to be two Darkness Ablaze, one Sword & Shield Base Set, one Cosmic Eclipse, one Sun & Moon Guardian’s Rising, and one X&Y Steam Siege. Full size images of the promo cards can be seen at Pokebeach. The Eternatus Premium Collection has a $39.99 MSRP.
Darkness Ablaze isn’t the only new TCG set coming this fall, players will also be treated to a mini-set, not unlike last year’s Hidden Fates. There isn’t yet a name for the set, which is currently known simply as Sword & Shield 3.5. Regardless of whether the set will include a chase card as valuable as Shiny Charizard, Darkness Ablaze’s Charizard V and Charizard Vmax will offer plenty of chase of Pokémon TCG players this fall.
