In addition to the TCG merchandise revealed last night, a new Espeon and Umbreon deck box will be sold at Japan’s Pokemon Centers starting December 8th. It will retail for 2,000 yen (about $18).
Update: The official Japanese TCG website has announced there will also be Prism Star Supporter and Energy cards, which some of our forum members predicted! So there won’t just be Prism Star Pokemon!
Since the Lost Zone mechanic has been revived due to Prism Star cards, the website also announced that the Lost Zone’s cards are now placed to the left of your Prizes. Originally, they were placed horizontally above your Prizes.
Clean artwork of the Prism Star symbol was also revealed:
