Sign in to your ScreenRant account A brand-new release for Pokémon Trading Card Game has officially been unveiled and, surprisingly, it is going to arrive before the Flowing Fists set. Flowing Fists is the first Pokémon TCG expansion of 2027, and it is set to arrive on February 5. The set will be a direct adaptation of the Japanese set, Aura Seeker, which arrives in the country later in November. Flowing Fists’ main mascot will be Mega Lucario Z, the new form of the beloved Generation 4 Fighting- and Steel-type Pokémon, which was recently introduced in the Mega Dimension DLC for Legends: Z-A. Before that happens, however, a new Pokémon TCG release will hit the markets, as was confirmed by The Pokémon Company International. According to a report by PokéBeach, on January 29, 2027, the new Pokémon Day 2027 Collection will be released. The new product will celebrate the upcoming Pokémon Day, an event that happens annually on February 27, honoring the release of Pokémon Red and Green back in 1996. This will give players and collectors nearly a full month to grab the special box before the event happens – when we’ll likely get more news on upcoming releases and more. The Pokémon Day 2027 Collection will be released two days before the arrival of the Pokémon TCG Valentine’s Box on January 27. The Pokémon Day 2027 Collection is a box containing a special holo Pikachu card from the Ascended Heroes expansion, printed with a special Pokémon Day 2027 stamp. The box also comes with three booster packs, as well as a special metallic coin that celebrates Pokémon Day 2027. Lastly, the product comes with a code card for Pokémon TCG Live. This is going to be one of the first major releases of 2027, following the Pokémon Day & Night release in November. It’s still not a major expansion, but it will be followed up by the arrival of the aforementioned Flowing Fists set in early February. If you are the type of player who enjoys TCG products as more of a collector, then the Pokémon Day 2027 Collection will be a nice product to grab. The box will be sold for $14.99 at retailers, according to a report by God Is A Geek. There are big things lined up for the Trading Card Game in 2027. Apart from the releases, a new Pokémon TCG price increase was announced for 2027, though it will only affect the Japanese version of the game. Booster pack prices in Japan will go up by 15%, following two other increases that have occurred over the past few years. This price increase will not affect the North American version of the game, for now, as it is made by other supply chains than those used in Japan. The Pokémon Day 2027 Collection will be a nice little release to grab as fans of the franchise wait for Pokémon Day itself. The special event will likely bring more news on upcoming sets, as well as the release date and more details for Pokémon Winds and Waves. Of course, if you’re solely into Pokémon TCG, there will certainly be news on that front, too. Franchise Pokemon Original Release Date October 20, 1996 Player Count 2 Publishing Co The Pokémon Company
