常见问题
Q1 Is Silver Tempest the last Sword & Shield set?
Silver Tempest is the last numbered main Sword & Shield expansion. Crown Zenith followed as a special set to close out the era, but Silver Tempest (SWSH12) was the final standard expansion.
Q2 Why is Lugia VSTAR competitively strong?
Lugia VSTAR's Summoning Star VSTAR Power puts up to 2 Colorless Pokemon from the discard pile onto the bench, enabling massive acceleration with Archeops for energy attachment. The Lugia VSTAR deck was a dominant force in the 2023 competitive season.
Q3 What makes the Serena Full Art valuable?
Serena is a popular character from Pokemon X & Y, and her Full Art Supporter card combines character appeal with competitive utility (she lets you draw or gust). The anime and game nostalgia for Serena drives premium pricing.
Q4 How does the Trainer Gallery in Silver Tempest compare?
Silver Tempest has the final SWSH Trainer Gallery with 30 cards (TG01-TG30). It features farewell appearances of fan favorites like Rayquaza VMAX, Houndoom, and various character combinations, making it a fitting conclusion to the subset.
