Hoenn Power Tins in June!

June 17th will see the release of three “Hoenn Power Tins” featuring either the “speedy Sceptile-EX, fire-bright Blaziken-EX, or unstoppable Swampert-EX!”, as the product description states. No product image is available yet.

Sceptile-EX has not been released in Japan yet, but if you’ve been following my news posts, you’ll know Swampert-EX is a Japanese Gym Challenge promo while Blaziken-EX is being released in an Emerald Break blister pack (both have also received a Mega Evolution card). With this news, Japan will probably see Sceptile-EX and M Sceptile-EX very soon as well. The only question now is how we’ll receive their Mega Evolution cards.
