Pokémon Sword & Shield Base Set

The foundation for a new generation

With the Base Set, the Sword & Shield era relaunches not only thematically but also mechanically. The V cards replace the previous GX system and bring more power, new synergies, and a fresh gameplay experience to the table. Zacian-V and Zamazenta-V were strong options for competitive decks from the start and remain among the most influential cards of their generation.

Galar starters, new trainers & energy strategies

The starter Pokémon from the Galar region—Chimpep, Ooty, and Sobble—also make their debut in the Base Set. Their evolutions offer exciting possibilities for new play styles, especially when combined with the Trainer and Supporter cards introduced for the first time in this era. The blend of gameplay mechanics and thematic world development makes the set a true collector's item for fans and strategists alike.
