Dragon Pokemon Return to the TCG: ‘Sky Stream’ & ‘Towering Perfection’ Revealed!

By: Water Pokémon Master · Posted Posted onJun 3, 2021 at 10:04 PM · 0 Comments

Creatures has officially revealed S7R Sky Stream and S7D Towering Perfection! As posted before, they will release on July 9th. Each set will feature 67 cards before secret rares.

The sets should become part of our August set, Evolving Skies.

Both sets will feature the return of Dragon-type Pokemon! They have been absent from the TCG since the start of the Sword & Shield block.

Dragon Pokemon will have no Weakness or Resistance. They have a new “claw scratch” in the top right corner of the card, which distinguishes their card template from all other types. Each Dragon Pokemon will continue to use Energy requirements that roughly match the color scheme of the individual Pokemon.

While Creatures never stated Dragon Pokemon were dead, Fairy has officially been killed.

The sets will not be sold at Pokemon Center stores. They will only be available through its online store via a special lottery.

Thanks goes to Bangiras and Toine L. for the card translations!
