And we got some more updates for several facets of the IP…
On the TCG side more info about two “Ultra-Premium Collections”, one will be featuring
Arceus VStar (a major player in the TCG’s competitive scene) while
another will feature Charizard and contain three promo Charizard cards (in the form of a Pokémon V, VMAX, and VSTAR). The Arceus UPC will be $99.99 USD while the Charizard UPC will be $119.99 USD.
I wholly expect the Charizard UPC to be scalped to high Hell and back just like the Celebrations UPC was.
Oh, and during the World Championships’ livestream they’ll be releasing a code for both the TCG Online anc TCG Live that, when redeemed, will give you a copy of the Secret Rare print of Path to the Peak. For those not versed in the competitive scene Path to the Peak is really common in most decks due to its Ability-disrupting nature.
On the main game side two distributions are going to happen soon and one is currently available. For Worlds’ livestream a serial code will be given out that will give you a Lv. 50 Victini that comes with V-Create, Zen Headbutt, Work Up, and Flame Charge and is holding a Starf Berry. An in-person giveaway at Worlds will give you a Sinestea that knows Celebrate, Memento, Metronome, and Aromatherapy and is holding a Moomoo Milk. A Lv. 80 Dracovish based off of Ash’s can be obtained using the serial code
GANJ0UAG0882 until August 25th, here’s the event info that’s been lovingly ripped from Serebii’s site.
Oh, and there’s a Wild Area event that causes the Impdimp line to spawn in Raid Dens.
And yes there’s an increased chance of finding Shiny Grimmsnarl.
Pokemon Go is also doing
a special event for Worlds and includes a global event (check the “celebration event in Pokémon Go“ tab).
