Lurantis-GX from ‘Collection Moon!’
Lurantis-GX has been revealed on a poster advertising Collection Sun and Collection Moon in Japan. It is card #6 in Collection Moon.
This is the first time we’re learning Pokemon-GX will be able to evolve from other Pokemon. Pokemon-EX are unable to do that, spare for Mega Evolutions, which themselves are a different mechanic than Pokemon-EX. Pokemon ex from the Ruby & Sapphire era were able to evolve from regular Pokemon, like Blaziken ex evolving from Combusken.
Like holo cards in this new Sun & Moon era, Lurantis-GX will feature a “wave” holofoil pattern.
The two sets will be released in Japan on December 9th and will feature over 120 cards together. In America, the sets will be combined into one set named Sun & Moon in February.
Thanks goes to Andrew C. and Franco T. for the translations!
