Pokemon-GX in Spring ‘Tag Team Tins’ Revealed!
As posted last week, three new “Tag Team Tins” will release in America and Europe on March 29th.
We’ve now learned they’ll feature promos of Pikachu & Zekrom-GX, Eevee & Snorlax-GX, or Celebi & Venusaur-GX.
Each tin will feature four booster packs, a “special art” GX promo card, a metal TAG TEAM GX marker, and a PTCGO code card that unlocks a deck.
We know for sure Eevee & Snorlax-GX are getting promo artwork in Japan, so the one below may be the one we’ll get in the tin. So far no alternate art versions of the other Tag Teams are known to exist aside from their in-set secret rares.
