With anticipation building among Western Pokémon Trading Card Game enthusiasts for new launches like Surging Sparks, there’s a growing curiosity about which Japanese Pokémon and sets, such as Supercharged Breakers and Paradise Dragona, will eventually be brought to us.

It’s fortunate that the recent Japanese Pokémon Trading Card Game Championship unveiled unexpected elements, giving fans a sneak peek at various forthcoming cards, among them some Tera ex versions of popular Dragon-type Pokémon which might prove to be quite formidable in competitive play.

On Pokebeach’s latest post, they unveiled the new cards featuring Tera Hydreigon ex, Tera Tatsugiri ex, Milotic ex, along with a few others. Meanwhile, user PokemonRestocks also shared these cards, causing quite a stir in the comments section.

As a dedicated gamer, I’ve got a soft spot for Hydreigon ex and Tatsugiri ex, two remarkable Dragon-type Pokémon. Previously, their cards didn’t quite live up to expectations, but that’s all changed now!

One comment says, “YES TATSUGIRI I LOVE IT” before another added, “Yessir more dragons.”

On Pokebeach, commentators explore both the aesthetics and functionality of the new cards, commending the fresh artwork and innovative uses of the newly introduced moves.

“At last, Hydreigon has a decent card after years! I’m overjoyed!” said one comment, while another expressed, “It’s great to have obtained a Dragon-type Stellar Tatsugiri. If it gets a SIR, it could become my sought-after card in this set.

As a passionate admirer of this game, I’m already brainstorming strategies for the new cards, like myself who muses, “Tatsugiri’s attack seems overpowered. There might be a way to synergize it with Regidrago.

While many enthusiasts have embraced the new card system, some are yet yearning for a comeback of the old Tera cards. One user expressed their hope that we haven’t seen the last of the shiftable Teras, which are the unique Tera cards that provide Pokemon with entirely novel Tera-types.

For now, it’s uncertain if we’re restricted to using Stellar-tera for a while, but there are numerous exciting possibilities yet to be explored in the Trading Card Game (TCG).
