Meowth, Paldean Wooper, Suicune, Duraludon Promos Releasing for “Starter Deck Generations!”

As posted months ago, releasing alongside the nine “ex Starter Deck Generations” on November 22nd will be an “ex Starter Deck: Generations Special Battle Set” containing four promo cards.

It’s now been revealed the four promos are Suicune, Duraludon, a Meowth Illustration Rare, and a Paldean Wooper Illustration Rare.

Meowth is a new alternate art reprint from Shrouded Fable, Paldean Wooper is a new alternate art reprint from the Koraidon ex & Paldean Clodsire ex Deck, and Duraludon is a direct reprint from Stellar Crown.

Only Suicune is brand new, but its first attack is too blurry to make out.

The Special Battle Set will cost 4,650 yen. It will come with the Gen I, II, XIII, and IX decks, the four promos, a playmat, a deck box, two coins, and damage counters.
