“Surging Sparks” English Pokemon TCG Set Releasing in November!

We can reveal November’s SV8 set will be named Scarlet & Violet: Surging Sparks.

The set will release on November 8th. Prereleases will take place from October 26th to November 3rd.

As the name implies, Surging Sparks will be based on Japan’s Supercharged Breaker featuring Tera Pikachu ex. It will release in Japan on October 18th.

Our set should also be based on Paradise Dragona, which releases on September 13th (before Supercharged Breaker). It will feature Dragon Pokemon like Latios, Latias, and Alolan Exeggutor. We should see its official reveal next month.

Surging Sparks should also host the cards from the Stellar Sylveon ex and Stellar Ceruledge ex decks, as they’re releasing in Japan in August (before either Paradise Dragona or Supercharged Breaker).

Last week I posted a new Ultra-Premium Collection will release on November 1st. This is a week before Surging Sparks.

In the past, UPCs based on sets have always released on the same day as their sets (like 151‘s). Independent UPCs have always released over a month away from nearby sets (like Charizard’s). So we’re in a new situation here where the UPC is merely one week before Surging Sparks. This brings up questions on what November’s UPC will feature.
